C4480 does not print with Windows 7

I have a HP C4480 all-in-one printer. It worked fine with Windows XP. Since I upgraded to Windows 7 (32 bit) and installed the compatible version of the HP (v13.0) software I can't print from any application. I can print alignment page and test page and I can scan, but when you try to print from any application I get the normal print message and the document is added to the print queue, but no printing happens and the queue is empty.

After installing HP Print Diagnostic Utility (Utility of diagnosis HP Print), I found that the driver I had installed from HP page had a compatibility issue. The proposed solution was to uninstall the driver, disconnect the cable from the printer, restart the computer, and connect the cable again so to make Windows Installer the driver and then I was able to print normally.

Now my mind is at peace

    Why my printer does not print with Windows 8?

    Did you just upgraded or purchased a new computer with Windows 8, and now you can't get your printer to work?  If so, this can help you.  Many people have questions about the installation of their printer on a new OS.  This will help you answer these questions and make sure you get everything installed.

    Before you start

    Before you try to install the printer on a Windows 8, you should check to make sure that the printer is compatible with the new OS.  The link below will give you a list of printers that will work in Windows 8.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03168175

    If you have upgraded your computer to Windows 8 formed another version of Windows, make sure all software uninstall complete of your printer.  It should still print, but to use all the features, you will need to reinstall the software, if available.

    Another thing to consider is how you want to connect the printer to the computer.

    1. USB.  You must ensure that you have a USB cable which does not exceed 6 feet (about 2 m).  Be sure to connect the printer directly to the computer.  Do not use a USB hub.

    2. Ethernet cable.  Make sure you have the network configuration, you have a free cable port on the router, and you have an available Ethernet cable.

    3. Wireless.  You must ensure that you have the configuration of the wireless network, and you have the password of the wireless network.

    1. installation Via USB

    Installation via USB in Windows 8 became much simpler for users of HP printer.  In other versions of the Windows operating system, you need to launch the installation and wait that it asks for the USB connection.  If you do not, you will need to uninstall the printer from the devices and printers folder and then launch the installation.  In Windows 8, which won't be a problem.  If you plug the USB cable from the printer and then install the printer software, work remains.  Now for in depth instructions on installing the printer via the USB port click on the link below.

    2 installation Via an Ethernet network connection

    For an Ethernet connected printer, the installation is disconcerting.  All you have to do is to connect the printer to the network.  Once you have done so, Windows 8 will automatically install the drivers for you.  Then, all you have to do is install the rest of the software, if available.  It's really as simple as that.

    3 installation Via a wireless network connection.

    For a wireless printer, network installation is disconcerting.  All you have to do is to connect the printer to the network.  Once you have done so, Windows 8 will automatically install the drivers for you.  Then, all you have to do is install the rest of the software, if available.  It is roughly the same as just Wireless Ethernet installation.

    http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/support-drivers.html

    Alternative installation methods

    With Windows 8, the drivers of many printers are installed with the operating system.  These are called pilots InOS, since they come built-in to the operating system.  If you have one of these printers, you should have to do simply connect it to the computer via USB, or connect to the network via Ethernet or wireless.  Once you have that makes Windows will take care of the rest.  There are other methods of installation of your printer if normal methods don't work for some reason any.  You can install the printer is using the printer, or through Windows Updates Setup Wizard.

    Set printer wizard:

    Windows Update:

    Note: The drivers of Laserjet for the Asia-Pacific and the Japan will come only at a later date.  See below the link support site for the availability of the driver.  I will update this post once they become available.

    Hope that answers some questions.

  • HP LaserJet 6 p printer range does not print with windows 7

    I installed the drivers that came with Windows 7, but the printer does not print. I run the diagnostic tool; It removes the work and says it's fixed.  It is not the case. HP says they cannot help.   I love my 6 p and would rather not have to buy a new printer.  Can anyone help? Thank you.

    Windows 7 does NOT support printer HP laserjet 6 p.  It is a HP note:models 6L and 6 p in the LaserJet 6 series are NOT supported in Windows 7  I got and downloaded the driver on the Internet somewhere by typing: driver of HP laserjet 6 p.  You can check the box to add printers over the Internet.  I'm not looking for the process.  Try and I hope it helps.  In the meantime, I'm troubleshooting why my 6 p prints (parallel to 6 p and USB for laptop HP cable).  Don't forget the impression of 'biodirectional' is not checked in Ports (USB001, 2 or 3) place (lower-left) in Device Manager. Right-click on your printer, you will see 'printer properties '.  I say that linear, but you will get it.  Let us know.

    My HP LaserJet 3055 All In One does not scan with Windows 7-64 bit. I can copy and print only. Thank you.

    Hello

    Is the printer connected to your PC by USB or network?

    Using the USB connection, you can scan using Windows Fax and Scan software built into your operating system.

    Scanning over a network connection unfortunately supported on Windows7 32 bit only, as you can find listed in the section about network scanning below:

    • You have problems with programs
    • Error messages
    • Recent changes to your computer
    • What you have already tried to solve the problem

    Review the information from the Windows 7 Compatibility Center.
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/search.aspx?l=en-us&type=software&s=Grand%20theft%20auto

    He says that version 2 is not compatible.

    If Aero is the problem, disable it before installing the game and then turn back on.
    I would say as you right-click on Setup and select "Run as Administrator".

    I hope this helps.

    Windows Vista Compatibility Center

    First thing to do is to check its Vista compatibility at the link above, and if not to see what patches/solutions are available from its manufacturer...

    If this is not Vista compatible, read the info on the link above.
    It works for some programs, but not all.

    This applies to software programs, NOT hardware drivers.

    If it's Vista compatible > uninstall it > Re-download/save to your desktop > right click on the setup.exe > run as admin.

  • eGames Solitaire Master does not work with Windows 7

    Original title; Programs Application Applications Apps game games Legacy Crash crashes Hang Application Compatibility hangs

    Tried master eGames Solitaire, this does not work with windows 7. When will Microsoft a compatabillaty mode that actually works. If this is not the case, stop advertising as such. Its time Microsoft was made responsible for the costs involved in the duty of the latest edition of the software because of their own mess.

    Then you may need to try the modes of virtualization I listed above depending on the version of Windows 7, you have installed. However, XP Mode was created mainly for commercial applications and not for games so graphics intense games may not work correctly even in XP Mode.

    You can check with the manufacturer to see if they have an update or a fix that will allow the game to be run on Windows 7. Since the site egames solitaire Master 3 or 4 Master Solitär does not show to be compatible with Windows 7. However, they show to be compatible with Windows Vista.

    It is the manufacturer of games to make their games compatible with the operating system back.

    Hope this will help.
