Can't print after installing windows 7

I installed windows 7 on 2 different computers that are connected to 2 different printers, the two Lexmark.

Same problem on both computers.  I can use the "copy" function and printers work fine.  I can print from Notepad.  I can't copy and print on a printer.  I don't know much about computers, but everyone seems to have the same problem.

A printer is powered Wireless and the other is not.  Lexmark says it's the fault/firewall to the new windows 7.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software on each computer and nothing seems to work.

Can anyone help in plain English?  I'm not computer savey

Each computer has started with Vista and Windows 7.   I use 32 bit. I'm not network so that each computer is on its own.   HELP Please

Go to Lexmark > looking for Windows 7 drivers for your printer models > download/save them > uninstall/reinstall instructions of Lexmark printers.

    Hi man chic,

    1. This only happens when you try to install the printer HP or with other programs?

    Step 1:

    Before you install Windows Vista SP2, uninstall completely printing software.

    Check out the link to uninstall a program:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/uninstall-or-change-a-program

    Step 2:

    After installing SP2, try to install the latest version of the drivers available for the printer and the printer and check if it helps.

  • Brother HL-2240 printer will not print after installing Windows.

    original title: MS upgrade on Windows XP

    Help, please.  I installed the recent update of MS for XP and now brother HL-2240 printer will not print.

    KB982670 seems to have something to do with .NET Framework 4 Client Profile.  This update or Windows PowerShell have been updated "critical", then maybe you didn't need to get.  However, it's water under the bridge now.

    When you open the print queue, are shown print jobs as stuck there?  Just to make sure that the queue is cleaned, do the following:

    Open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK)
    Type each of the following commands in the command prompt window and press ENTER after each line

    • net stop spooler
    • del "% windir%\system32\spool\PRINTERS\*.*" {answer Y when prompted}
    • net start spooler
    • output

    It's really only a shot in the water, but he could help and can not hurt to completely uninstall and reinstall the printer.  Follow the directions here: http://www.coribright.com/windows/Article_One.htm

    Get the complete installation package here: http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public/us/us/en/dlf/dlf/000000/004500/dlf004515.html?reg=us&c=us&lang=en&prod=hl2240_us_eu&type2=1&os=7&flang=4&dlid=dlf004515

  • Reference Dell 926 printer will not print after installing Windows 7

    After the upgrade to Windows 7 my 926 printer will not print. I followed the suggestions found here (unplug the printer on the wall, remove the brick, low load patch R166248 to delete the printer, the latest driver to load, R146832 dated 26/01/07, reboot). Restarts, driver going through complete installation process then I get an error at the end of the process, "the Dell Photo 926 Printer printer driver is not installed". I did this several times. In addition, I restarted the spooler to print several times. No luck. Additional suggestions on how I can get my 926 to work with Windows 7?

    Greg,

    I think that we all regret our first wedding, well most of us.

    Removal of print jobs is a way of really nice to get rid of your documents. After you restart your computer, you should be able to run the fix, Manual printer removal driver and restart once more. Try it to install the Vista drivers in compatibility mode, I used Vista SP2.

    Right click on the file setup.exe, on the left, click Properties, compatibility of the left click. Change Vista compatibility. Then, install the appropriate drivers. You will be asked when connect (printer)

    To install the drivers, sometimes the file decompresses and does nothing. You must find the setup.exe file, right-click on it, then on the left click on run as administrator *.

  • HP compaq 15 h000na: can't get back into windows after installing windows 10 [attention] 8?

    Microsoft and hp did an automatic installation of windows 10 and that my old system was windows 8 Andi want to return because the internet explorer 11 is now 64-bit and Windows 8, it is 32-bit, this i where the problem is, a lot of sites do not support windows 10 due to the Explorer currently 64-bit, ibecause now I can't pay your bills online that's why I want to go back to windows 8 , but I can't because then installing windows 10 he has deleted all the files of windows 8 operating system and many other people are having the same problem, microsoft made a remote server to try to find the problem but after 4 hours, they told a lot of people have had the same problem and there was nothing they could do hp says the same thing, now, I thought that I or we had 30 to change my or our spirits come back back so why cant I go back, windows 8 has been preinstalled on my laptop to hp should have the windows software code 8 then why slope they send me this code so that I can have windows 8 , microsft also said that me [i] properly installed windows 10, once again why cant I return to windows 8 and b4 a replys I and the foregoing did all the tests on my laptop and the only thing that remains is for hp to reinstall windows 8 on my laptop, because I have to use my very old another laptop running xp to pay bills online , then what is the point of upgrading to windows 10 and having to use windows xp on old laptop and what was the point of buying me a new laptop last year

    I pressed the button for windows accecpt 10, but read all about it very carefully before installing and it asked to save all of my files that I made, microsoft and hp recommemed I installed windows 10 but you have 30 days to change your mind, windows 8 has been preinstalled and he warned an installation of usb media and says all the websites are supported so u take all this in any good faith, I'm not a super user just a plain person who wants to use his computer and when I want to and do not have all these hassle to write things up and find a hell of a lot of other people with eactly, same problem, microsoft installed a 4 hour remote to find if it was my fault or the fault of the laptop and found nothing and told me it was a problem with 10 windows and they said as a lot of others having the same problem where they cannot restore when they want too, if microsoft had said that there are a lot of sites supporting windows 10 then don't you think [IE me] would wait b4 I installed windows 10 also microsoft has in an email said to try to get these sites to upgrade why the fak must do this, like I said, I don't want all this crap I want to just turn on the laptop and use bloody like most people and not microsoft and hp did not force me but they recemended by e-mail and through my warranty upgrade so that was what I did the second , the only one the way back he semms is hp have my original numbers of windows software 8 not as I regis this sytem with hp, then u would have thought to email me windows 25 digits 8 none for me to install software, microsoft must make it clear that this windows 10 is not supported on the sites of somes and hounor cancellation of 30 days , and what is the bet that they contact me after 30 days and say oh u can't go back, but if you have done this or spoke to them u might have rollback, and this second would make it even more of a pain fffffff.

  • I have four recovery disks that after I bought my computer, I did. These disks can be used to install Windows on the new drive?

    My computer came with Windows 7.  Recently, my hard drive failed.  I have four recovery disks that after I bought my computer, I did.  These disks can be used to install Windows on the new drive?

    YES!

    I just did mine 01/01/2016, installed a new WD 500 GB HDD black on my laptop ASUS K52F, took my DVD 4 restore disks and restored to Win 7 Home Premium, more 10 Windows, which is sitting on my old HDD in the trash. I'll stick with my Original OEM OS and never improve to WIN 10 times.

    NOTE: The only time the restore disks do not work is when you replace your motherboard.

  • HP Officejet 7612: analysis of problems after installing Windows 10

    After installing Windows (prior to Windows Vista) 10, scan documents with my HP Officejet 7612 became a hell of a job.

    Printing is no problem.

    With Webscan, I can only scan and save 1 page at a time, I can not scan several pages of the document 1 more.

    I downloaded "Extended Scan" but when I try to use this app, it says "year error occurred while scanning" without more information.

    With "HP Scan and capture" I can't scan the size of A3 paper full of documents and there seems to be no possibility to change the size of a3 paper. Maximum size is 'legal letter '.

    Same problem with "Windows Fax and scan."

    Are there other ways to recover the possibilities of full scan from my HP Officejet 7612?

  • Computer OS used to start after installing windows 10

    Hello im having problem starting my system after installing windows 10. I did the install and it worked fine since the upgrade to 8.1. But then I tried to format the drive and in the menu format, he's stuck at 2%, and then I restarted the computer. Now it will hang at the hp logo and go back to the same logo. Do I have to replace my hard drive?

    What I understand, if you have completed the 10 Windows Installer and everything has happened until the end, then you are supposed to be able to do a clean install with the download of Windows 10 DVD or USB.  With a working computer, GO to THIS PAGEand scroll down to the button "download tool" selection the 64-bit version.  Once clicked, it will ask you if you want a DVD or USB for the iso.

    Once it's done and you have the DVD or the USB version, see if you can install Windows 10.  If this fails, you may need to replace the hard drive.
