Can not remove the print server role (Windows server 2012)

I have a small question... I'm trying to remove a role (print server) on my Windows Server 2012. (Yes I know, I need to go to "Add/Remove role")

but each time, the server establishes the uninstall procedure, but when it's time to restart and complete the procedure... the server fail and cancel everything... so in the end I always install the print server.

I try to stop a link of service in this role (as a spooler, printing...) but samething.

If anyone can help me, I really appreciate it.

  • Install HP does not see the printer in network, Windows DOES. Help!

    Hello

    I am trying to add my HP Officejet k8600dn to Windows 7 (32 bit) so I can scan, but the HP Installer (add device) can not see the printer. The unit is set up by cable to a switch on my network via an ethernet cable. If I go into the menu "Add a printer" Windows, I can install the printer very well. But I have to be able to scan and I don't know what to do.

    Tips on getting functional analysis if the HP software is unable to see my printer? Subnet mask and gateway on the printer are the same for the computer and the printer. I typed the correct IP address in the "Add a device" menu of HP, but he sees not just it. ARRGG!

    Thanks for any help!

    Hello

    I think that there is some confusion because the Officejet k8600dn is only a printer, it is not a multifunction device and does not provide the capability of scanning.

    You can find the specifications below:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01287217

    If you have any different model printer, please specify the exact model.

    Kind regards

  • L7780 HP 'add a device' can not detect the printer on the network

    I have a HP OfficeJet Pro L7780 printer and a laptop running Windows 7 Hp. The HP Solution Center has stopped working recently and now gives a message error "HP Solution Center cannot work because your installation of the device is not complete."

    I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software "OJProL7X00_Full_14.exe" and when I go to 'Add a device' it cannot find my printer on the network, even when I enter the IP address.

    I ran "OJ6500vE709_Scrubber_14.exe" - bird 1-2-3-4 and it did make a difference.

    The printer is connected to the network and I can add it as a printer in the window "Devices and printers" window so I can print to it, but without the HP Solution Center software, I can't scan.

    So Windows can detect the printer on the network and when I add the printer in this way, all 4 computers connected to our network can print to it fine.

    HP Print & Scan Doctor detec the printer on the network can. When I run that it is said that the comprehensive software solution for your product is not installed on this computer and when I click on the button 'Install Software', need me just the OJProL7X00_Full_14.exe file. The software seems to install fine but I can't add a device.

    HP printer install wizard for Windows can detec the printer on the network. When I run that it is said that the current full HP software is already installed and drivers seem to be installed correctly. A test page will print perfectly.

    But "Add device HP A" not somehow the printer detec.

    Please notify.

    Hello Impact,

    I see that you spent a lot of time trying to solve the problem of the HP Solution Center not allowing you to scan. Uninstall and install it, rub the software and execution of printing and scanning Dr. / Printer Wizard are all the steps I would have suggested do you.

    I would like you to follow the steps described in this document from HP: the progress bar on the Software Installation stops or stalls, many steps in it you all ready done but please follow the document from top to bottom.

    Before you start to trouble shoot the issue still provides also the computer is not connected to a VPN (Virtual Private Network) and you can access the printers on-Board Web server by entering the printers IP address in Internet Explorer.

    Let me know how this document from HP has helped.

    Thank you

  • scanner can not find the printer hp photosmart 6510 e all-in-one

    I tried all the help and downloads to try that works - I don't have the disk.  Somehow my printer has been removed and I got to the top but the scanner will not recognize the printer and will not scan.  He says that it cannot find the printer.  I tried to download all the drivers etc from windows, hp Web site.  He says, make sure that it is connected to my computer?  If the printer is connected wireless why my scanner isn't?

    There is only one download of the complete software unique features on the HP support page, if you had installed, it would have placed a shortcut to an HP printer on your desktop, and from there you can access the diagnostics or assistance

  • I have a C5580 AND a C5280... and can not remove the ink of one of them.

    I can't remove the ink cartridges from the printer. Looks like the small flat plate plastic which is located directly in front of the installed cartridges, sits too high and blocks the inks come off.  I think the plastic plate should probably lower itself automatically, when the cartridges to move to the right and stops for easy removal... right? How can I fix it?

    OK, sorry I couldn't help.

    The gas station is on the right, the capping station and plate Assembly that block access to the cartridges are all part of this mechanism.  If the plate is not the road moving mechanism of the gas station does not work correctly.

    Even if there is a message of paper jam carriage it is an indication that the transport does not properly move, or if the sensor that detects the movement of the trolley does not work.  In this case, the transport would be likely to slam at the edge of the printer, which seems not to be the case, it is therefore likely related to a blocked movement of transport.  This can be caused by a locked service station.

    In any case, I will not waste your time with any further discussion in this thread.

  • I can't remove the print picturesfrom queue...

    I have a Photosmart C5180 all in one and a HP laptop on a wireless network.  I've had no problems so far. I can't delete two images of the print queue, so I can not print anything else, until they are deleted...  I tried all the solutions to this day in the forum, but cannot find the files listed in Windows 8.  I downloaded the file "HPPSdr", but it does not work even when I say 'yes' when it asks me. I have unplugged the printer and the laptop to power and reconnected... I looked in the Administrative Tools Control Panel and can not find... I typed in the unsuccessful print spooler... I typed Run and Net Stop Spooler nothing helps... I looked for a program and files Services.msc - nothing.  I think that Windows 8 is renamed everything and hidden it away, so we can find.  Any help anyone can give me wil greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    I'll give you a link to a specific document on your printer, but you almost everything he does.  The only step you did not uninstall the printer and reinstall it.  Still I recommend you read through this entire document "printer is in offline mode" since every step inside is exactly the same for the other printers that have stuck in the queue of print jobs.  I never want to do a uninstall myself thus before you make sure that your printer is always connected to the same network as your computer or you will have a hard time to re - install.

    I included a video on How to uninstall a printer in Windows 8 , but it looks like you know your computer very well so you need to may not be it.  And to make sure you have everything you need, here is a link to full feature software and drivers for Photosmart c5180 on a 64-bit Windows 8 computer.  I am interested to know what is happening.

  • has obtained a new wireless network and I can not connect the printer to it.

    I have a photosmart c4780 wireless.  Got a new Airport Express Wireless yesterday.  It is connected to my MacBook Pro without problem, but I can't get the printer to connect to it.

    I have a MacBook Pro, OS v. 10.6.  My HP Photosmart C4780 worked perfectly on my old system wireless (Apple product).  Yesterday I bought a new wireless Airport Express and I can't get the printer to recognize the new system.  Where it shows the name of the printer in the system, the box below (called location) is empty.  I tried to put the name of my Airport in it, but no luck.  I know it just needs to be connected internally somehow, but can't find where the information goes.  I don't have a USB port.  The printer is connected to a modem, and the modem is connected to the radio (is this is what is called the router?) Airport Express - just like it was yesterday when he was working with my old wireless.
