Yosemite = NO HP Photosmart 8750 printer driver ?

So far no printer driver works for my HP Photosmart 8750 printer? OS X 10.4 or OS X 10.7 don't cut it. HP are telling me Apple will support it and Apple tell me there is no software support for my printer?  Great.
I'm just reaching for my Ouija board to see if I can contact Steve Jobs as nobody alive seems to know the answer?

You might try this oneHP Printer Drivers v3.0 for OS X  I've had a lot of success with it. Usually the printer manufacture will develop the drivers to my understanding. Here is a list of printers OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download - Apple Support

  • HP Photosmart 8750 prints slow when using Photo Gray Cartidge

    HP Photosmart 8750 prints slow when using Photo Gray Cartidge ... sometimes indicates Black Cartridge failed, however upon reinserting works slow

    Welcome to the HP Forums ButchG,
    I see by your post that when printing with the photo gray cartridge the black cartridge will indicate that it has failed.
    I can help you with this issue.
    I would do a power reset to see if that will resolve the issue.
    With the printer still turned on, disconnect the power cable from the back of the printer, if the printer has external power module with a detachable power cord disconnect it for 15 seconds and then reconnect it.
    Hold down the power button for 10 seconds to drain the power.
    Then disconnect the power cable from the wall outlet.
    Wait 10 seconds and reconnect the power cable back to the wall outlet first, then the back of the printer and power it on again.
    Make sure the printer is connected directly to wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector)
    I have provided a document for the cleaning the contacts and reseating the cartridge.
    'Cartridge Failed' or 'Cartridge Not Compatible' Error Message.
    What are the ink levels?
    Are you using Genuine HP Cartridges?
    Check the date on the cartridges to make sure they are still in warranty. (not old stock)
    If you need further assistance, let me know.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • How can I adjust my photosmart 8750 printer to properly frame print?

    My photosmart 8750 printer (Win XP on network) does not give consistent results when printing. When printing a photo with white borders, it will give an even border around the photo and cannot be adjusted accordingly. does anyone have a solution to this issue?

    This has been a major pain in the *** for me! I have trawled too many online discussions and forum threads on this only to find no real answers that work. In the end I found some software called VueScan which although cost me $40, has now allowed me to scan from my MP600. Check it out at http://www.hamrick.com/

  • Hp photosmart 7350 Printer Driver for Windows 7

    I can't seem to locate a Printer Driver for my HP photosmart 7350 printer. Hp states the driver for the HP deskjet 5550 should work, but it doesn't.  I just bought a new computer and was hoping not to have to buy a new printer.

    Hey farhanchd,
    What is the full name of your HP Laserjet printer?  
    There are several models in the HP Laserjet 1100 series and would need to know the exact name to give you precise instructions.  
    I do know that the Laserjet 1160 has a driver available through the Windows Update system and may be the same for your printer.  Please take a look at the information in the link provided below.

  • After downloading Yosemite, my HP Photosmart D110 printer will no longer work. The wireless connection is fine but says it cannot find my printer when trying to print.

    After downloading Yosemite my printer, a HP Photosmart D100 will no longer print. The wireless connection is fine, and a test page printed perfectly directly from my printer. When trying to print from my computer, it says it cannot connect or find the printer. I tried downloading the most updated software from HP website but it doesn't appear to be helping.

    Try resetting the printing system.
    OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
    If you have the printers IP address open Terminal (applications/Utilities) and at the prompt type: ping {printerIP}. You will get a reply or failure.

  • Photosmart 309A - Printer Driver Reinstall Looking for C Drive

    Hi Forum,
    I have a 4 year old Photosmart Premium all-in-one printer, which I think is an excellent machine. The issue I have today is that on a new build computer with Windows 7-64 Ultimate I am having problems loading all the drivers as my windows installation is on a drive partition with letter G. I think HP drivers like to load on C.
    While the drivers are loading I get an option to choose where the drivers will load and they are loading correctly into the G drive but during installation I get a Fatal Error message saying C drive missing or something to that effect. I have looked on the support section and used the HP Print and Scan Doctor, which is picking up the fact that the imaging function drivers are not correctly loaded. The Fatal Error message popped up in a separate window and I could see the installation continuing in the background. The installation completed and I can wirelessly print to the printer but Solution Centre will not operate, which means scanning will not be possible.
    What if any solution is there other than changing drive letter on my bootable partition which will totally ruin my new Windows 7 installation. HELP!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi there ihameed46,
    I read over your post about the issues you are having with the installation of your printer. My best idea would be to try extracting the installation by using WinRaR.
    See this post for the instructions you will need if you wish to try this: Installation Issue and Troubleshooting (The instructions are closer to the bottom of the post)
    Good luck

  • Photosmart C4480 Printer Driver Errors

    I have two problems:
    1) Some files with complex images print OK in PDF, but on the C4480 have either a large black box on part of the image, or part of the image duplicated further down the page instead of the correct part
    2) I cannot print some characters from MS Word Formulae. These are [ ] { }
    Is this a driver error? Is there a fix?

    I am very frustrated with my HP printers right now.
    1)  I have an HP Photosmart C4480 that has new ink and over 20 times has asked me to print alignment page, scan page and then still doesn't work! The ink doesn't print my documents well at all, I can't even read them unless its an alignment page!
    2) I have a color HP 8500a and this printer also doesn't work except to eat all my paper and then spits out nothing. I am slammed and my two HP printers are on the brink!!! Why isn't there a phone number where an actual customer service person can be spoken with? I have time lines, am a small company and cant' belive how much I pay for my ink and printers only to have been struggling for weeks. What is up?

  • Photosmart C309a Printer Driver for Windows 8.1

    I have downloaded and uninstalled/reinstalled too many times to count and wasted 2 days plus.
    Still it shows driver error or lack of connection with USB even though it searches and finds printer and serial number and runs test pages (print & scan).
    But it will not run HP software suite ever since I have Windows 8.1. Coincidence?

  • Problem with airport extreme and HP photosmart 8750 printer

    I have connected my HP8750 printer to my internal network via one of the ethernet ports on the Airport Extreme base station. My computer accesses the network via the wireless AP.
    I have no trouble finding the printer - it shows up as a bonjour printer when I try to add a printer.
    It does not know how to access the "supply levels" page hosted by the printer. This information is absolutely necessary in managing a photo printer.
    Before I upgraded to the Airport Extreme, I was using an older SMC wireless router. There the supply levels web page showed up at a fixed address.
    Does anyone know how I can access this page?

    I have found a "solution" which is not elegant but ....
    I connect my iMac to the Airport Extreme via an Ethernet port. I then look at the IP address of my iMac and poke around using a web browser, examining adjacent IP addresses. I find the HP8750 hosted page at one of these. I then switch back to wireless and the web page is still there. I bookmark it.
    I guess these addresses are stable.
    It would be more elegant to be able to get the same info via the printer popup window by clicking on "supply levels" but this workaround seems to work.
    How do other flavors of printer handle this when they are addressed as bonjour printers?

  • Photosmart 8750 won't print sharp black and white photos

    I am trying to print some black and white photographs using my photosmart 8750 printer.  Up until now, I have just done color photographs.  After printing my first black and white photograph, I'm very disappointed.  While it is definitely gray scale, the dark black colors in the photo aren't coming out black at all...just a shade of gray.  I have the gray photo cartridge installed.  Is that my problem?  Everywhere I read, it says that is what should be used.

    Try the troubleshooting steps in this page. Does the diagnostic page print properly?

  • Need printer workflow settings for PS CS5 and HP Photosmart 8750

    Friends:
    This question must get asked periodically, but I couldnt find an answer:
    I have Photoshop CS5 and an HP Photosmart 8750 Printer with these inkjet cartridges (original HP) availiable: (97 Tricolor, 101 Blue Photo, 102 Gray Photo)  I also have HP glossy phot paper.  Using a Mac Pro with OS 10.6.5 (Snow Leopard)
    What do I set my PS5, My Print dialog and my Print Setting to get a decent color photo?  I get muddy photos now and am wating lots of fine glossy photo paper.  To get an aproximate photo I have to boost brightness by 60% on my photo.  Still the printed photo doenst look like the screen.
    Thanks for your help, printer profiles and suggestions!!

    At the company I work for we hardly print from Photoshop as we have a pdf-workflow, but I think you might make it easier for others to help you if you provide screenshots (posted with the camera icon) of your print dialog windows, especially those regarding Color Management.

  • Printer driver embedded in win 8.1 64bit not working

    Hi,
    my photosmart 8750 printer, which is a great printer and still works fine, at least with my old laptop running windows xp that is....unfortunately with the embedded HP printer driver in windows 8.1 (64bit) it is not working at all.
    This is what is been happening so far, first time connected, the printer is recognized by windows 8.1 and the driver automaticly installed, if a printer test page is send it prints normally. But that is it, anything else, pdf,word doc or a picture will not print!
    The printer responds to a print command, by starting something that sounds like it's going to print but after a few seconds it stops and nothing happens after that, if I look in the dialog box where docs are normally listed while they are waiting for being printed there's nothing, I'veallready restarted the print spool service but that didn't work...also reinstalled the printer a few times, but that didn't help....
    My perception at the moment is that the driver for win 8.1 is the problem, because the printer works fine with the original HP driver on my win XP laptop.
    Hopefully there's a workaround for this problem.....
    Thanks in advance for any help!

  • Photosmart 8750 Problems

    I've had my photosmart 8750 printer for a number of years now and unitl recently it hasn't let me down. Since switching to windows vista I've been experiencing some photo printing problems when I try to print 6x4 or 5x7 inch pics. The left margin is wider than the top or right and the bottom margin is huge. I've tried adjusting the paper size everywhere it tells me to. I've tried everything and I'm still perplexed. Can anyone help?

    I don't have your model printer, but...
    All the network-ready HP inkjet printers I know of require you to:
    click Add in Print & Fax prefs,
    Click on More Printers,
    select HP IP
    then select model driver.
    Does that help?

  • Photoshop CS6 and HP Photosmart 8750 under Win7 Pro?

    Hi,
    I have the impression that the HP Photosmart 8750 printer does not work correctly under Win7 Pro when printing images from Photoshop CS6:
    The prints are generally 2 shades lighter than on screen, i. e. black prints as 50% gray - Black cartidge is new...
    In the PS Printer settings dialog, I set the color management to "handled by printer".
    If I set the colormanagement to "handled by Photoshop", the printouts are even worse: colors are shifting to completely different shades.
    On my Canon MP280 printer, the prints are color-correct.
    I guess, that this is related to a driver problem. Win7 only has a basic driver implemented for the HP printer, and HP doesn't provide a Win7-driver.
    The thing is, I need the large format...
    Does anybody have a solution or workaround for this problem? Your help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Erhard

  • Selecting Paper Type for HP Photosmart 8750 In Lightroom 3.3

    Since converting to Lightroom v. 3.3 I am unable to select the paper types on which I wish to print from my HP Photosmart 8750 printer.  In the printer dialog box, the following option is grayed out:  "Photosmart PDE."  I also get the following message:  "The bundle 'HP Photosmart PDE' could not be loaded because it does not contain a version for the current architecture."  It then tells me to contact the bundle's creator for the latest version and then lists the following:  HP Photosmart PDE v. 5.3.  I would appreciate any thoughts as to what the problem is and how it may be corrected.  I have downloaded the most current printer driver and did not have this problem with Lightroom 2, so I am thinking that it must be a compatibility issue between the HP software and Lightroom 3. Thanks.

    I inserted photo paper into the printer tray a the start but it printed horribly, like my old canon used to do when I accidentally stuck laser paper in instead of glossy / matte.
    Other prints (like from iPhoto) print fine thru the printer.
    The Print dialog in the pull down menu contains no options to look at or change the paper type.
    On my pc I had a huge section of options when printing where I could select the profile, colour correction, print quality etc etc on any print. Cant seem to find the same options thru Mac.
    Still puzzled?!
