I installed a driver for my printer Hp Officejet Pro L7380. I can print from my computer and it detected that it, I can't scan anything on my computer because it is not connected. I have tryied Conect it but can not select. So my question is, how I connect printing to computer?
Specify that you are trying to scan a document Hp Officejet Pro L7380 to your Vista machine. It has only a single computer attached, or is it a printer networked with other computers?
If you have installed the base drivers and not the additional software that allows scanning etc so maybe it's why you fail.
Have a look here.
Software & Driver Downloads
http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?OS=2093&LC=en&cc=au&DLC=en&sw_lang=&product=3198092#n190It might be possible with just the base drivers, for other software, such as your Photo editing programs, including painting, for import documents or images from the scanner. Windows Fax and Scan can be able to do. When you go in such programs are there options scan and they see your scanner? If this is not the case, try the full download.
If you want to of HP to make scanning programs, you may need the-base drivers and software (larger download).
For my HP ' All in one ' works like a scanner, it was necessary for me to download all drivers and software.

Transfer the Windows XP operating system to a new computer that has vista?
My new computer had Windows vista but it is destroyed by a virus, and I lost the drive of vista.
My old computer has Windows XP OS, computer is not usable, but I have the product key and the reinstallation CD. Am I allowed to install on the new machine?If XP is initially pre-installed on your old computer: NO; You can not install it on another computer.
If XP was preinstalled on your computer, it is classified as an OEM license and is not transferable.
This also applies if you had a license OEM/disc you purchased yourself.
The license of XP OEM is related to the original computer it is installed on and dies with the computer.
You cannot transfer it to another computer/laptopIf a license of XP at retail, you can transfer it to another computer/laptop.
But it can only be installed on one computer at a time.A single license is a single Installation.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For the replacement of Vista disk:
Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.
Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

My name is Pedro, help a good friend who has 3 small destop computers running windows XP. There is no internet at all since the installation of several years now. My question is: can I download SP3 and install it on 3 PCs similarly when they never received updates from the dell factory install? Or SP2 is a sine qua non before moving on later? In fact am still dealing with a place without internet access.
Thank you very much for the help!
According to the first article below, before you install SP3, you must have either the SP1a or SP2 installed on the computer. You have not specifically need to have SP2 installed. For more information, see the following articles:

Hi Stevensmiley,

Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:
Method 1: I suggest you to check if the problem persists when you plug the USB device into the other port
Method 2: You can even try to connect any other USB devices and see if the problem still occurs.
Let us know if it helps.

I created a pdf file on my computer that has several links to to other PDFs, word documents, etc. When I send this to people that they cannot access the links. Probably because the files in the links are only stored on my computer. Any ideas?
Of course, it's an option as well. You can attach files to the main PDF file, or you can merge all files into a single PDF portfolio.

Original title: new printer
I replaced a HP with an Epson Stylus all-in-one printer and cannot get the printer to print more than one page when printing from the computer. The printer works fine when printing from a laptop or ipad!
Start by going here--> http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?UseCookie=yes&oid=232591&prodoid=63099059&infoType=Downloads&platform=nodetect
If the web page has not correctly detected your operating system, select it by using the drop-down list. Rather than using the "Combo package" recommended but huge, expand the "Drivers" section and download driver printer v2.32 to a location that you will remember later.
- Click on the ORB start and go into devices and printers.
- Select (click) the icon of your Epson printer.
- Once you have selected the printer, a button labeled "Print server properties" will appear in the toolbar. Click on this button.
- Click the "Drivers" tab on the print server properties dialog box.
- Select the Epson printer in the list of installed printer drivers, and then click 'remove '.
- In the context menu, select "Remove driver and driver package" and click OK
- Click Yes, and then delete
- Once the removal process is complete, restart the computer (probably not really necessary, but can't hurt)
- Install the driver and the software using the file that you downloaded earlier
At this point, your printer should work fine. However, if you want the ability to print by emailing a file to your printer, you may need to install both 'Remote Printer Driver v1.65' in the category 'Pilot' and "v1.30 utility Configuration of printer Epson Connect" in the "Utilities" category
