• Windows cannot connect to the printer. The name of the printer has been correctly entered, or the specified printer has lost its connection to the server.

  A Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP2 32-bit computer is a field, the file and print server.

  A computer on the domain is a machine of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit with HP DesignJet 500 24 printer connected via USB.  The printer is running the latest firmware.  The PC is running the latest 64-bit drivers with no problems to the host machine printing.  The host also has the latest drivers 32-bit (x 86) installed by downloading by other computers on the network.  The printer is configured to share with the share name of HPDJ500.

  Now, on a machine Windows XP Pro SP3 32 bit on the field, I'm trying to connect to the shared printer.  Add a printer > click Next in the wizard of > check "a network printer or a printer attached to another computer" and then click Next > click on "Find a printer in the directory", then click Next > click Find now > HPDJ500 in the list below (the XP machine can see the shared printer on the Windows 7 computer!) and click OK.  At this point, I get an error that says: "Windows cannot connect to the printer.  The name of the printer has been correctly entered, or the specified printer has lost its connection to the server.  For more information, click Help. »

  Alternatively, if I right-click on the HPDJ500 printer listed, then click on connect, I get the same error message but I also see a separate window that says "Connecting to HPDJ500 on H2.ws.net" with the lively projector.  This window also disappears as soon as I clear the error message.

  Please note that this printer worked perfectly as a printer shared, hosted on a machine XP 32 bit on the field.  It works perfectly for the new Windows 7 64-bit machine, but we cannot connect from anywhere else on the network (including the server which translates the same exact error message).  On the server, I also preinstalled drivers thinking there was a problem with a 32-bit computer, trying to grasp the correct drivers from the host 64-bit Windows 7, but that doesn't change anything.

  How connect to this printer?

  Try using the path UNC path of the printer in the Add Printer Wizard.

  Add a printer > network printer > connection to this printer ((deuxieme point)

  Click next to browse (leave blank, the name field) or type the UNC path of the printer (i.e. \\Computername\Printername) path

• Problem adding network printers; received this message error «Windows cannot connect to the printer or the name of the printer...» »

  Hello

  I have a Windows XP pro (Lenovo) that I recently ran the recovery and returned to certain configurations of 1.5 years. Now I can't add a network printer and get always the message error «Windows cannot connect to the printer or the name of the printer...» ». I ping the printer and all on my network can add these printers, it's just that a machine that fails to add network printers.

  I disabled the firewall, but were still unable to add the printer. Then I found some difficulties to register for a similar problem, but they were not useful... It really becomes a big headache, especially Windows restore does not work...

  I strongly suspect that 1.5 years, someone has renamed the printer.  Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the print server through My Network Places and see what it's callednow .  Otherwise, you could ask your network/system administrator.  You should know...

• Windows cannot connect to the printer. Access is denied.

  From: Steve

  Desperately, I try to print from my laptop Windows Vista Home Premium to a shared printer on my home wireless network.  The shared printer is connected to a XP Home machine.  This machine is wired (via a LAN cable) to the wireless router.  I can 'see' the printer that I want to use but trying to to connect to it. I get the error message "Windows cannot connect to the printer.  Access is denied. "I would be grateful for any help.

  Kind regards.

  -Steve

  From: Alan Morris [MSFT]

  Since the XP machine is HOME, I don't think that the permissions dialog box is accessible.

  Run the XP network sharing wizard again and see if it affects safety correctly on sharing.

  Is the printer you share one that has drivers provided with Windows XP?

  In the meantime we will at least get the printer works for you.

  Create a local printer on Windows Vista; Creation of a Local Port in the form \\XPMACHINE\Printsharename (this will send the files by using the redirector instead of the RPC service).  Install the Windows Vista driver for the device.

  You can print because print$ access is required for printer drivers.

• "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Make sure you typed the name correctly and that you are connected to the network. »

  I have a Windows Vista laptop. I usually have no problem printing over the network to my University Library. Then I bought a new Kodak printer to my apartment which I also configured to print wireless. For about a day, I could print from these two networks, depends on the location. Now, I can't print at the library. I am able to see all printers but when I try to 'Connect', it says "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Make sure you typed the name correctly and that you are connected to the network. "Word, printers of the University Library no longer appear in the list you choose to print. What should I do?

  Hello Lauren,

  Please take a look at this Microsoft article on "networked printer troubleshooting:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/troubleshoot-network-printer-problems
  I suggest to disable all security software, including firewalls, you have probably enabled or installed and then try to print again to see if that makes a difference:

• Add Printer__ Windows cannot connect to the printer. Access is denied

  Laptops have just loaded with Windows 7 Pro on my domain. Try to load printers to a print server. Print server running Windows 2003 R2.

  When I log in with a user profile, I go to devices and printers------click Add a printer-network printer select------I see a list of printers on the print server - choose the printer that I want to load------asked if I have confidence in this printer - click install drver------opens window files Coping - green bar moves as if it were loading drivers------then just before you get to the window asking if you want to make a default printer. open window that says - Connect Add Printer (X RED) for printer Windows cannot connect to the printer. Access is denied

  Changes to device settings to allow the user load the drivers. Check the security access (everyone has permissions) for this printer on the print server.

  Disable UAC control on the laptop. Group Policy has changed restrictions point and print.

  But this same user can log on to another computer on the network, which has loaded XP Pro and can load the same printers that are denied with windows 7 pro

  As a network administrator, I can log on to laptop computers and load A B and C printers.

  So I can log on as a user and then I can load A B and C printers, but as a user I want printer D I get the same message as above.

  Thank you in advace for your help

  This is the solution I received and seems to work.

  You have to go into the local group policy on Windows 7 computers, and not on the server.

  Go to the Group Policy:

  Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Printers\Point and printing Restrictions ss SET TO OFF

  User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Printers\Point and printing Restrictions ss SET TO OFF

• Flash Builder debugger cannot connect to the running application

  I've upgraded to Flash Builder 4.5 and now I get the error - old

  The Flash Builder debugger cannot connect to the running application.
  Ensure that:
  1. for applications in the browser, you run the debug version of Flash Player.
  2. for network debugging on a mobile device, you have a reliable network of the device connection and 7935 port is open on the firewall of your machine.
  Device connection help

  I get both on the Simulator (which is being upgraded to the latest version) and try to debug on my real playbook. There are a few other forums of discussion about this that suggest that the default Debug host IP is the usual culprit. However, which is set up correctly. I also added port 7935 firewall.

  I am able to ping ip address of my playbook without problem. Any other thoughts on what I might have configured wrong?

  Flash Builder 4.5 uses Air 2.6 for iphone and Android, for the moment, we can use only Air 2.5, so the compiler needs a couple of parameters. You have in the ActionScript Preferences tab build package-advanced - forceAirVersion 2.5 and under ActionScript compiler an extra line - swf-version 10

• Windows 7 Windows cannot connect to the printer error

  Hi, since a few days ago I was connected to a network printer and everything was fine. Today, nothing works. I removed the printer thinking that would help (and I could go out and find him), BAD!

  I click on add a printer > add a network printer > select the network printer and get a box that says: I need to install a driver from the other machine, then I make him trust, etc blah blah blah, click OK and then get this error.

  Windows cannot connect to the printer.

  Operation failed with error 0x000003e3

  Both machines are running Windows 7 x 64.

  I googled all night with no solutions. Please help, I need to be able to print! Thank you!

  I solved the problem. I had to join the homegroup computer, was too attached to the printer. Once I did, he saw the printer and installed the necessary driver. I can print now!

• I just got a new modem att wireless, now my phone cannot connect to the printer as it used to...

  just got a new modem att wireless, now my phone cannot connect to the printer as it used to...

  If AT & T has provided the modem, you can give them a call and explain the problem you are having. They should be able to help you. If you did not have all that in place, then it would be a little difficult to explain what you need to do... but... basically you would need to connect the modem and check the settings there and make sure your printer match the parameters.

• Vista cannot connect to the printer

  I have three computers, one with XP and one with Vista Home and one with Win7.  XP has an attached Cannon printer that is shared on the network.  It worked well for a long time.

  I recently had a wifi attached Kodak esp6150 printer I installed over the old Canon.  It works well from all three computers.  Since installing it however the Vista computer is no longer can find Canon printer on the XP computer.  So I tried to add a printer in Vista.  It shows the printer in the list of printers connected to the network, but when I select and tell Vista to add it I get the error "unable to connect to the printer.

  Okay, I went back to a restore point before the Kodak and Canon fine works again.  I reinstalled Kodak software and both printers worked ok maybe half an hour and the cannon disappeared Vista again.

  The world is - that sound familiar at all?  No idea how to get Vista to recognize the two printers like XP and Win7 are happy to do?

  Thank you.

  Bill

  Okay, I think I got my problem solved from information found elsewhere on the web.  The trick seems to be to tell Vista to install the printer working for the Canon even if it is a shared network printer.  And create a local port with the name \\XPserverName\PrinterName.

  But as I said, this is necessary if the Kodak is installed.  Otherwise Vista see the Canon as a shared network printer.

• Satellite P875-S7200: HP Deskjet 1510 cannot connect to the Printer Wizard

  When I try to open HP DESKJET 1510 SERIES on my computer it looks like trying to connect to the Printer Wizard but never open and that's why I can't scan anything. How can I connect to the Printer Wizard? On the screen all I can see just - text by default - and it looks like loading but never opened.

  Thanks for getting back to me @Amandazone  

  Looks like you have reduced, I don't know what else could cause this problem.

  Since you said that you need the software for the analysis, I came to the top with some other ideas.

  You are able to try this;

  1. Open all programs
  2. Locate / expand your HP folder
  3. Locate/expand your HP Deskjet 1510 case
  4. Try to open HP Scanand see if it will scan

  If it will not scan, you can try the steps outlined in this document;  HP scanning software is not open or Scan to a printer using a USB in Windows.

  Another option would be to scan without using HP software;

  You can find on theseoptionsScan how-to: Windows 7 

  Please let me know the results of scanning HP, and what happens when you try to scan without the HP software.

  I look forward to hear from you!

  Thank you
