Access the printer on XP to Vista 64-bit

I tried to set up a local printer with a local port in the Vista box, but when I try, I get "the system cannot find the path specified".  Vista can see the XP machine by name 'Library', but cannot access its attached resources.  In this case, impossible to get to the printer is connected to the XP machine called library.

Makes me a tree.

If you hae read all my response:

"If you are using Norton, McAfee, Trend Micro or Kaspersky I.S., make sure that file sharing and printers is enabled in THE Firewall (or LAN enabled, depending on how their Exceptions are formulated in their firewall)"

The information above is not limited to just these 3 suites of security; Look at the trend of exceptions!

  • Cannot access the printer software after installing new ink cartridge

    I installed new ink cartridges. It prints well but I can't access the printer on the computer action tab. I can't check ink levels, align the pages or check on maintenance. When I click on the folder of the printer it opens but it says it's searching for items. The printer of action file is not there. Anyone know what could cause this? I can't open the Toolbox of the product. What I have to reinstall the printer software, or is there something else I can do to fix this. I have windows 7 and a 3000 deskjet printer. Thank you.

    Harold R. Rodgard

    Hello Harold,.

    The question most likley do not have much to do with the replacement of the ink cartridge.

    Lately, HP has released a new software, due to the latest MS updates, you must update the software to get all the features.

    Go to start > programs > HP > select your printer folder and follow uninstall them.

    Now, download and install the new version of the software from here:

  • Need to know where in the system folder of Windows Vista, I can access the printer for a shared printer drivers .inf files

    I have a printer that is attached to my system down Dell Windows XP, I want to access the floor running Windows Vista from my Sony system.  I managed networked the printer so I can see it in my Sony Windows Vista network folder.  However, when I try to access it, it gives me the following error msg:

    The server to the printer 'HP Photosmart 1215 series' doesn't have the installed printer driver.  If you want to find the right driver, click OK

    Otherwise, click Cancel and contact your network administrator or the original equipment for the printer driver manuafacturer.

    I advanced and clicked on "OK". and the system brings up a box for me to find the correct INF file to load.  I went ahead and tried the DRIVERS/WINDOWS/INF and a few other places, but has failed to find (any) of printer drivers

    Can someone tell me where I can get these?

    Download the appropriate driver from the printer manufacturer's web site.  If it contains a Setup program, run the program and when it asks you to specify the printer installation, create a local printer whose name is \\xpsystem\printer where 'xpsystem' is the charing system printer and "printer" is the name of the share.  This should create the printer.

    You can also expand the downloaded driver and try to add the printer as you did before, direct the installation to the folder containing the driver that you downloaded.

  • problem with the printer connected to windows vista,

    I have a Canon PIXMA printeriP1900 when I try to connect it to my computer, I get a message that the printer driver is not compatible with a policy enabled on your computer of mine that blocks NT 4.0 I have Windows vista. Can someone help me

    Go to the Canon Website and see if there are drivers for Vista.

    http://www.USA.Canon.com/consumer/controller?Act=DownloadIndexAct

    I don't see a pattern of IP1900 if you can't access the exact page. You will need to check your model number. If there are drivers for the version of Vista you have (32 or 64-bit), download and install. Do not have the printer connected until the installer tells you to do. If there are no Vista drivers for the printer, you can not run it under Vista.

    You must also run the software printer Canon of an administrative user account.

    Have an Adware bug stuck to the folder "Temporay Internet" McAfee can't remove it completely. In XP, you could access the local settings folder to manually delete the Temp and Temporary Internet files. I liked to do this because you have been assured that all deleted.

  • Cannot access the printer control panel application downloads

    My printer is connected to my network hub, eprint is activated and I can email print my eprint service that prints

    However, when I try to connect to the application, all I can get is quick forms. I get 1 error server - there was a problem connecting to the server

    Please can someone help?

    Hello

    First try clicking the printer icon, select Preferences, then select define a country / region.

    Ensure that the correct area is selected, and then try again.

    If the same persists try restarting your router and the hub by unplugging its power for a while. Once the devices are completely upward and you are capable of internet connecct again restart the printer and try again.

    If the same dtill persists try to define a DNS address manually:

    Open the amd configuration Menu and select Menu wireless.

    Press Setup display network and locate IP address.

    Type the IP address in your web browsing and select network.

    Select IPv4 and a manual DNS.

    Set the primary DNS as 8.8.8.8

    and the secondary as 8.8.4.4

    If you don't see such an IPv4 option select the submenu of networking, and IP address.

    I guess that those who must resolve this, if not I suggest turning off and reset services web, but you will lose your current addtess ePrint and will have to choose a new instead.

    To do so go to configuration > Web Services and select Remove Web Services.

    Then, reopen the meu to Web Services and follow the steps to reactivate the service.

    Using the printed sheet, add the Code to request provided to the HP ePrint or on the connected HP site and select a new address for your printer.

    Hope that helps getting the problem solved.

  • How can I reinstall the Satellite L300/OVK with Vista 32 bits as being its 64 bit now

    Does anyone know how I can reinstall a L300/OVK NB with Windows Vista 32 bit.
    The problem is that it is 64 bit at the moment and I can't install software on it. I don't have a Windows installation CD.

    I contacted the store that I bought in and they said to press f12 or O when the computer is put in place.

    However, this does not work. Anyone know what I can do to install my software?

    Run the Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator. There should be an icon on the desktop or in the Start Menu.

    If she creates more than 2 DVD x, then you will have the option of 32-bit or 64-bit when run you recovery.

    To run the recovery from the HARD disk:

    When the laptop is OFF, press and hold the Zero key.
    Turn on the laptop
    Release the zero key when you see the Toshiba Logo.
