Why aren't there Windows 7 (64 bit) specific drivers for my HP color LaserJet 3600n printer?

Why doesn't HP support its own printers by providing drivers for a very stable operating system? I've been a longtime HP laser customer...since 1984 laser I. I would like to use drivers for my color LJet 3600n which were specifically written for my computer's operating system.
Does anyone know where there are Windows 7 (64 bit) drivers for the HP color LaserJet 3600n printer? Do I have to purchase Brother or Canon or Lexmark printers to get support?

Oh, you must not be on the English US site. Basically it says to use the Vista driver and gives a link to it. That is as good as it gets at this point, sorry.

Win 7 (64 bit) Driver for my Color LaserJet 2550n Printer

A specific driver for my HP Color LaserJet 2550n is not listed in the Win 7 driver list. I see drivers for 2500 PCL 5, 2500 PS, 2550 PS, and 2600n. ( just updated the Windows driver list.) I've been using the HP Color LaserJet 2550 PS driver, but have problems printing that I never had with Win XP. Which ddriver is the correct one for my 2550n printer?. Thanks.

Where are the diagnostic reports, or why aren't there any?

Hello
I understand that under mavericks, diagnostic reports are supposed to be found either in
/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/ (System Diagnostic Reports),
or in
~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports (User Diagnostic Reports).
Unfortunately, even after a number of crashes, they aren't. While in my case, the system DiagnosticReports folder exists, but contains nothing but powerstats, in the user library, not even the folder is there.
So, either they are elsewhere, or they aren't being generated. In the first case, my question would be: Where are the diagnostic reports? In the latter, it would be: Why aren't there any (despite the system crashes)?
(A similar question is to be found here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/24773940#24773940 , but ended with an open question. I'm starting a new thread, because this old one is marked as answered.)
Thanks a lot.

Networking a HP color laserjet 2600n printer on windows 7 (64-bit)?

Hello,
Have an HP Color Laserjet 2600n printer and are running Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit). I installed >> HP Color LaserJet 2600n Plug and Play Package off of HP website [ http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=446154&p... ]. The drivers work fine if you connect via USB port but unfortunately there's no way to connect via network. Can anyone give me guidance on how to connect the 2006n via a network on windows 7 (64-bit)?
Thanks

Have you plugged the printer into your router and does it have a proper IP address? If so:
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and connected to your network. Verify that you can access the printer's internal web page by browsing to its IP address before continuing.
2. Click >> Start >> Control panel >> Printers.
3. Click the Add a printer
4. Select Local printer
5. Select Create a new port and select Standard TCP/IP Port and click Next button.
6. Under Device type, select TCP/IP Device. Under Hostname or IP address, enter the printer's IP address. Click Next.
7. Select Hewlett-Packard from the list of manufacturers and select and select your printer model. Click Next.
If your printer model was not listed, then select Have Disk, browse the HP CD that came with your printer and select the first file that starts with hp and ends with inf. Click Open then OK. Select your printer model. Click Next.
8. If you are asked, use the currently installed driver.
9. It will ask for the Printer name -- enter a new name or use the existing one. This will be the name of the printer that you select from other applications.
10. You may be asked to share the printer. Choose NO.
11. The Print Test Page box appears. Go ahead and print it.
12. Click Finish.

Windows 7 and HP Color LaserJet 3600N

HP does it best again. No Windows 7 driver for Color LaserJet 3600n! You can fill in the blanks... However, using Windows 7 Professional, I was able to install the XP drivers. Download the XP software and it will run in a virtual XP session. I then added the printer as Windows 7 would lead you to do. The add did not complete correctly--CTRL/ALT/DEL. However, the printer was added and seems to work. Maybe HP and Microsoft are pushing the more expansive Windows 7 Professional.
This question was solved.

XP Virtual session, not familiar with, but sure seems painful and possibly limiting vs HP doing the right thing in the first place.
FYI ... Over in the Home > Other HP Products and Technologies > Windows® 7 Beta and test forum, the lack of a driver has already been noted in the thread ...
HP Laserjet Color 3600n Driver for Windows 7
A few select remarks by various people (including myself) in the thread were ...
Is this really true and if so, for heaven's sake why?
Ridiculous.
stunned by this decision
This is unbelievable! We purchased multiple 3600n printers just barely a year ago (September, 2008). We have made the decision to upgrade our office computers to Windows 7 (from Vista) and now we find out that our practically still new printers are not compatible. I can assure you that I will NEVER purchase another HP compute or printer... EVER!!!
I was also a bit surprised.
I DON'T WANT TO HEAR BS SUPPORT RHETORIC FROM YOU GUYS ... FIX THIS. (a snip from my acidic entry)
HP has not responded in that forum and I just put in a support email to HP if this is poor choice of words (not supported vs we are working on it) in the
HP LaserJet, Color LaserJet and LaserJet MFP Products - Product Support for Microsoft Windows 7
link to see if it is really being worked on. Since they didn't speak up in the forum and its been since 10/5 ... plenty of time to respond, I'm stepping it up and going on the offensive.
On that Windows 7 printer support page, I counted 9 models (some of which have sub models for networking and duplexing) as not supported. I didn't count the supported ones, but must have been several hundred. What is really laughable is that the lowly LJ 2p is still supported ... aren't those circa 15 years old? Not sure if the 2p is the oldest one on the list, but it is the one I recognized as truly most ancient.
My 3600n was bought at Staples in 9/2008 and has a manufacture date on 6/2008, its not like I purchased POS laying in someone's warehouse years and got taken by some scammer.
Plain and simple ... I don't know when HP first started selling the 3600 and when they dropped, but I just don't understand how HP could do this to a product they actively sold a year ago (and there was a Vista Driver update in 11/2009) yet they support the ancient 2p ... Astonishing !!!!!!!!!!
HP the support listing (url above) for the 3600 (besides the bad news) and has a link to a trade-in program ... thinking ... oh they recogized the errors of there ways and was going to give me a good deal ... no, it was some generic trade-in page, but I ran my 3600n though the page to see what it was worth ... $25.
Feel like getting stepped on, the trade in price, that was another one which lead me to this very acidic comment in my original post ... AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED YOUR CUTE HP TOTAL CARE LOGO IS YOU (HP) WITH YOUR HANDS AROUND OUR NECKS JUST SQUEEZING US FOR EVERY RED CENT WE MAKE IN JUST THE DAINTIEST WAYS YOU CAN (BET YOUR MARKETING PEOPLE NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT INTERPRETATION)!
I'm done being acidic, I'm just spreading the word!

Portege R835-P56X : are there no Wifi and soundcard drivers for WIn XP ?

I have just got a Portege R835-P56X . Are there any Wifi and Soundcard drivers for Windows XP for this laptop ? I want to downgrade to win XP as I have a huge collection of legacy software which have compatibility issues with WIndows 7. I can't find the required drivers on the Toshiba website, all though there are drivers for webcam or touchpad. I don't understand the reason for having a few drivers for XP but not all the required ones. Surely one can't use a laptop without Wifi or audio.

Best to upgrade Home Premium to Professional and then install XP Mode. Works really well here.
   Upgrade to another edition of Windows 7 by using Windows Anytime Upgrade
   Install and use Windows XP Mode in Windows 7

Is there a 64 bit Quicktime Pro for Windows?

I just purchased a 64 bit vista machine for video editing and I'm looking for a 64 bit version of quicktime pro. I've installed quicktime on this machine and notice that it runs as a 32 bit process. I want to take full advantage of my hardware, and therefore want a version of QT Pro that is made for the 64 bit architecture. There is no information on apple's website that I could find about this. Does anyone in the community know if apple has made such a version of QT Pro???
Thanks!

I believe the libraries for QuickTime (QTKit) are indeed 64 bit. However, 64 bit under OSX is very different from 64 bit under Windows. There are a few good websites that can help explain the difference, here's one that is fairly straightforward.

Why aren't there any folders for sorting bookmarks?

I have a lot of bookmarks and having one long list is cumbersome. Why isn't there some way to sort bookmarks so that they can be used efficiently? Do the developers of this browser think that people only bookmark a dozen sites? For this reason Firefox can't be used for serious work or browsing. Are there any plans to change this? And is there a workaround at this time?

Hi,
Unfortunately Firefox for Android doesn't have this feature natively. I don't know why. The workaround is to bookmark your sites on the Desktop Firefox and then use Firefox Sync to transfer them over to your Android device.

Windows 7 64-bit Webcam Drivers for dv5t-1000

I have to say, the dv5t has been rock solid and performs admirably for the 3+ years that I've had it. In terms of operation it is nearly perfect.
Here's my problem. I upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate 64. Everything works except for the webcam. It is not detected as an unknown device. To the OS, it appears that it just doesn't exist.
Here's what I have tried:
Installing all the drivers for 32 bit and 64 bit Vista and Win 7 that could possibly related to the webcam to include various iterations of "HP MediaSmart Webcam Software" current, past and old versions for all the related dv5t models. The software will not install due to no detected webcam. I did get version 2.2 to install and it runs but you can't do anything due to no webcam being detected.
Then, I went to the Intel website to ensure I had the most current chipset offered. According to Intel, everything was valid or current except my wired NIC. I updated that. Still, to no avail.
I have done numerous hardware scans and still no detection of webcam. I have all the latest patches from Microsoft and HP where applicable.
I tried to look up the actual manufacturer to the webcam for a model number and work backwards from there, but I was unable to find any info on that.
Contacting customer support didn't yeild any results. (they have been great in the past, btw)
I tried seaching in the HP forums and across the internet. In the forums there are others that do and don't have the same problem but it wasn't clear which flavor of dv5t they had. I tried the solutions offered in the forum but still nothing. The internet didn't get results on this issue either.
The webcam did work with Vista Home 32, the OS that orginally shipped with the laptop and i have tried those drivers too.
If I had to guess the is just some disparity between the OS, webcam or motherboard.
Please, if you have a solution, post and share the wealth.
Really, I am satisfied with the dv5t as it's the only model of that type at the time to offer a 16 x 9 screen (all others were 13 x 8 and WOW what a difference).
Anything definitive to resolve this would be great.
Thank you in advance for your time on this.
This question was solved.

In device manager tick Show hidden devices, under view on the toolbar.
If DM cannot see it you cannot install a driver, not sure why that hardware will not get detected.
