WIndows 8.1 printer error: windows cannot print due to a problem with the current printer set up

My HP OFFICEJET 8500 PRO was working just fine wirelessly until I installed the Windows 8.1 update from the Microsoft. Now I cannot print at all. I get an error that says, "windows cannot print due to a problem with the current printer set up". I have tried reinstalling and a ton of other solutions to no avail. Can someone PLEASE Help!

Hello there, @jesseangelique ,
Welcome to the Community!
I would love to help you with the printing issue you're having, since the Windows 8.1 that was done.
Please run the Print and Scan Doctor. Write me back with the results or post a screen shot of the results and I will have a look at them.
This diagnostic tool will check for any conflicts that could be causing the issue. The tool will show you a report at the end. If there was a problem that the tool could not fix, you will notice it in the results.
Also, let me know which Officejet 8500 Model you have:
HP Officejet Pro 8500 All-in-One Printer - A909a

Cannot print due to a problem with the current printer

Cannot print (anymore) due to a problem with the current printer is the message I get every time I try to print something out. I tried to reinstall the printer's software, I changed the cables, but nothing happened. It seems to be something related to the printer setup utility. Any big idea on how to solve this? I was printing without problems until this afternoon. I have a HP Laserjet 1022 and sometimes I use Adobe Acrobat Writer. None is currently working.
Thanks for any help.
Power Book G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I just had the opererational system (10.3.9) reinstalled . Back to normality again.

I have a problem with the synchronisation of my iPhone and iPad with Outlook 2007 on my 64-bit Windows 7 PC. For several years, I have had no problems with the synchronisation by cord connection and iTunes between these programmes. However, a few months

I have a problem with the synchronisation of my iPhone and iPad with Outlook 2007 on my 64-bit Windows 7 PC. For several years,
I have had no problems with the synchronisation by cord connection and iTunes between these programmes. However, a few months ago I decided to use Mobile Me. However, there were problems with duplication of calendars and then “rogue events” – which could not be deleted – even if deleted on Outlook and on the iPhone (or both at the same time) – they would just reappear after the next synchronisation. All other synchronisation areas (eg Contacts, Notes etc) work fine.
I have looked for help through the Apple Support Community and tried many things. I have repaired my Outlook. I have repaired my .pst file in Windows. I have re-installed the latest version of iTunes on my PC. I have re-installed the firmware on my iPhone. I have tried many permutations on my iPhone. I have closed down all Mobile Me functions on the iPhone. I have spent upwards of 24 hours trying to solve this problem.
What am I left with? Outlook works seamlessly on my PC. My iPhone calendar now has no events from my calendar, but does not synchronise through iTunes. Nor does it send events initiated on the iPhone to the Outlook. I am at the point of abandoning iPhones and iPads altogether. I need to have a properly synchronising calendar on my phone. Do you have any suggestions?

In the control panel goto the "Lenovo - Power Manager" and click the battery tab, there is a maintenance button in there that will let you change the charging profile for your battery. (from memory, so exact wording may be off)
The lower the numbers you use there, the longer the battery *should* last. These batteries degrade faster at higher charge levels, however storing them at too low of levels is also not good for them... I've read that 40% is optimal, but just not realistic if you use your computer.

Problem with the MVMapView.print(printMapDiv,) function.

Hello,
I have a problem with the MVMapView.print(printMapDiv,) function.
My FOIs are displayed correct on the screen but on the printed letter
the stroke(border) color and the labels of a circle are not displayed.
the fois have a custom style:
var xmlDef = '<svg width="1in" height="1in">'+
'<g class="marker" '+
'style="width:40;height:40;stroke:0xff0000;fill:0x00ff00;stroke-width:1.5">'+
'<circle r="20"/>'+
'</g>'+
'</svg>';
markerStyle = new MVXMLStyle("my_vector_icon_" + i + '_' + j, xmlDef)
and are created like this:
v_result = new MVFOI(p_geofeature.foiId, p_geofeature.foiGeomertyObject, markerStyle, null, 30, 30);
v_result.setHTMLElement('1',0,0);
Browser: I can see the map with a green circle, a red border and '1' as a label on
top of the Circle.
Printed Letter: I see the map with the green circle but no red border Color and no label.
The implmentation of the printing function uses the same techique like the "Oracle Maps Tutorial"
It is a javascript function called through a href link:
function mapPrint()
var a=document.getElementById("printmap");
global_gdi.mapviewer.mapview.print(a);
Version is Ver11_1_1_5_B110527
Does anbody know how to print the map properly including the contents of the
MVFOI class set trough setHTMLElement function?
Greetings
Andre

Thanks for your reply but it is not working and i can prove that.
I have a small example based on the mapviewer print tutorial. To run it you need a
mapviewer installation and copy the text into a html file. In the browser you can see
a green point with a red border and red label text on a map.
If you use the print button everything except the label text will be printed.
I think this is a mapviewer css-api bug.

Printing error: Problem initializing the current printer.

I keep getting this message, when printing documents out of indesign CS1.3.0.1
I have a PC running Window XP.
Trying to print to a Xerox DC-240 with built in fiery rip over a wireless network. I know the printer is working because I can print web pages etc.
When ever I try to print a document I have just created or one off and old template that I have updated and changed I get the above message.
The confusing thing is that I have not changed any settings downloaded and updates etc in the last few days. On Friday the prints we working perfectly, but since this week they have not been working. Also what is strange that any older documents I have work as long as they have not been saved.
I have tried copying the print settings from these jobs but this doesn't help. Also I have tried may different settings, ie changing font sets etc. But none of these seem to help.
Any more info required please contact me and I will try and help.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Two ways to do it:<br /><br />Fast way which causes you to lose any customizations if it turns out not to be the problem is to hold down Ctrl + Alt + Shift, and while holding the keys down launch InDesign from the start menu or by right-clicking a desktop shortcut and selecting open (it won't work if you you hold the keys down before double-clicking a shortcut, but you can press them IMMEDIATELY after launching InDesign) and saying yes to the dialog asking if you want to delete your preferences. If you don't see the dialog, you weren't fast enough with the keyboard or you didn't hold the keys down long enough. <br /><br />My preferred method, which saves your old prefs in case you want them back, is to close ID, open Explorer and make sure you are set to show hidden and system files, then navigate to (for CS and CS2) C:\Documents and Settings\<User Name>\Application Data\Adobe\InDesign\Version [no.] and rename the two preference files: InDesign Defaults and InDesign SavedData. In CS3 the SavedData file has been moved to \Documents and Settings\<User Name>\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\InDesign\Version 5.0\Caches. The preferences will be replaced with a fresh set of factory defaults when you relaunch ID, but if that doesn't solve your problem you can always go back to explorer and throw out the new set and name the old ones back again, restoring any customizations. If new prefs solve your problem you should delete the renamed files.<br /><br />It's a good idea to also export any custom document and printer presets from the appropriate Preset > Define dialog prior to doing a preference replacement. Then you can just go back to the dialog and select load and you won't have to recreate all those wonderful things you've made and saved, and that will be wiped out with the old prefs files.<br /><br />Once you have a customized set of preferences which work, make a copy and store it somewhere on your system for easy retrieval and you can simply replace the two files with your good copies when things get funny.

After updating to itunes 10 i now get an error message saying there is a problem with the windows insaller package - I have tried all the suggestions but nothing works for me - have I lost all my itunes forever?

After updating to itunes 10 I now get an error message that says there is a problem with the windows installer package. I have tried all the things that others suggested but cannot download itunes at all now. Have I lost itunes forever?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

I pulled my brains out trying to figure this bug out and I may have a solution for you.
All of it installed fine in my desktop, but a friend's laptop got the error you mentioned on quicktime, itunes, flash, officeXP and about anything else I tried to load for him.
If you look in: C:\documents and settings\<username>\Local Settings\Temp there will be an iTunes install log...open it in Notepad and see if it isn't exiting with a 1619 error while running msiexec.exe
If this is the case, this fix should work for you.
Seems some configurations of XP (and possibly Vista) aren't allowing full administrator rights to the account you set up when you installed XP (even though User Editor says you do have those rights.)
I read 2 MS articles and turned off simple file sharing, then gave ownership of the entire C: drive to the administrator. Logged the admin account off, logged his "admin" account in, and then gave rights to his personal directory to his account (c:\docs and settings\<username>)
Once I did that, every install that had previously errored out performed flawlessly.
The MS articles in question:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=316309 (1619 error)
and
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=308419 (how to set special permissions)
Hope this helps!
