Cannot connect Laser HP LaserJet 4240n printer to Windows 7. Error 0x0000007e

Has anyone connected with success a Windows 7 to this printer? I see not all the drivers on hp.com for him and when I try a general universal driver I get
Windows cannot caonnect to printer 'operation failed with error 0x0000007e.

When I visited http://support.hp.com/ and seized 'Laserjet 4240' in the search field, the link to the drivers for Windows 7 is immediately apparent.  Here are the 32-bit drivers: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=457003&prodTypeId=18972&prodSeriesId=456989&swLang=8&taskId=135&swEnvOID=4062

  • Windows cannot connect to the printer operation failed with error 0x0000007e

    Hello

    OS: Windows 7 x 86 SP1

    Print server: Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 x 86

    Printer: HP LaserJet 8150 printer shared and listed in the directory

    Problem:

    When I try to install the printer in the Add Printer Wizard, choose install a network printer, she finds a driver on the server, installs, then brings up an error (see topic).

    In the Print Service logs, I see the following:

    "The print spooler failed to load a plug-in module, 0x7e error code. See the user context information for event data.

    I can install the printer very well if I choose local printer, new port, TCP/IP, and enter the IP address. This isn't a solution, as users cannot be expected to go through this process, or for me to go around all the machines and do it manually. More I want than the print jobs to the print server's spool, and I think that the local installation method uses the local spooler.

    I tried to install the driver of HP UPD PCL 6, x 86 and x 64, on the print server.

    When I check what the client machine pilot chose to install by going to the properties of the print server, I can see that he chooses the former driver "HP LaserJet 8150 Series PCL 6". I presume that it is incompatible with Windows 7, that's why I am getting the error cannot connect.

    How can I get Windows 7 clients to use the UPD?

    I left our Windows 2003 print server to a Server 2008 and comes to install the HP UPD x 86 and x 64 for each printer. Now everything works perfectly! All XP and 7 customers can install printers network without problem.

    I suspect that the problem was due to have many different versions of drivers on the old print server, and customers did not know which to use?

  • Cannot get 100 colorMFP LaserJet M175nw printer mode 'sleep'. the LCD stays on?

     

    I have a printer HP LaserJet M175nw colorMFP 100.  the printer is hard plugged into a local home network and is accessible through a static ip address, the family is using windows xp. I tried to get the printer mode 'sleep'. I went into the setup of the printer lcd menu and set the printer mode standby after 15 minutes. However, I don't think it's ever enter mode 'sleep'. a green light stays on and the lcd screen stays on also. is this a normal behavior?

    webster22, is this printer connected on a wall or on a surge protector?

    If you have gone through the Setup Menu the Setup Menu under 'Energy settings' and the system chosen for the Sleep Delay option, then you have successfully configured the printer for its energy conservation mode.

    I find not specific, it is possible that the screen can stay in this mode, however most of the time the power off screen is a feature of mode 'sleep'. With the screen being on this subject is still possible it's save energy by stopping all other drains power.

    You can also check the firmware of the printer via the link below to make sure it is up-to-date.

  • Cannot connect my HP 6520 wireless printer

    I have this printer for less then a month, and although the scan is slow and printing is well it worked fine. I have recently moved to the University and I can't connect to the internet.

    Everytime I try, it says ' unable to connect. Unsupported authentication or encryption type '. I can connect to my iPhone and the Macbook Pro perfectly fine without any problems, but I can't seem to connect to the printer.

    I really need to work, given that I paid a lot for it and it does not only have less than a month.

    Can someone help me please? I have no information on the router, since it is the wifi at the University.

    Well do you have an Ethernet connection in your room?

    Options: Choose only one.

    1. connect the printer to your computer via the USB cable from the printer (not just a USB cable... a printer USB Cable).  Connect wireless to your network of schools.  Recommended.

    2. If you have an Ethernet connection in your room, you can connect to your computer via an Ethernet cable and you can now use the printers Direct wireless for wireless printing.

    3. switch back and forth between your schools network and wireless SSID Direct printers to print wireless.   This option would be less convenient.

  • LaserJet 1200: Laserjet 1200 printer drivers / Windows 10

    Greetings,

    My HP Laserjet 1200 worked properly without any problem when I downloaded and installed Windows 10 (64 bit) in early November 2015.  I upgraded to Windows 7.  16 December 2015, there was an important 10 Windows update that is automatically installed on my system.  The Setup takes about half an hour or more.  After installation and restarting, the printer would not print.  The printer prints a test page if I hit the button on the printer.  However, there seems to be no communication between the computer and the printer.  The Laserjet Printer is a former model of 2002 and is connected via a parallel port.  I tried in vain to install new drivers on the HP site and have exhausted all other troubleshooting provided tools.  I've not seen this issue addressed on the Forum.  It was suggested that we put security update 12/16 may have eliminated the ability to connect via a parallel port.  Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.  Look forward to having to buy a new printer when this one works perfectly well!

    Shortyccg

    With a parallel port, it is a known problem with the latest update of windows 10.  Go to Device Manager and in the tab change the Port settings to "never use an interrupt" to one of the other options.
