Cannot install Laserjet 4 on xp HP Pavilion computer.

I try to install my HP Laserjet 4 on my HP Pavilion computer.  I bought two new, years ago, but they were never together until now.  The computer was in my office and the printer was at home.  The printer was working on a different HP Pavilion for a long time and it now works when it is connected to other computers, so I know it's good.

I downloaded ljJ632en.exe on the site of HP drivers.  I ran that file and unpacked the 29 files to c:\lj632 and reported it was done.  The printer is still not recognized by Notepad or Word.  I tried to restart and did the download and he ran three times, sometimes with some afterwords restarts and sometimes without.  Should I sent the files downloaded to another location?  Is there something else I'm missing?

The operating system is Windows XP, Version 2002, Service Pack 3.

I'm puzzled.

Thank you, Magali.  Your solution did not work because the Panel did not show my printer in printers and faxes.  Your answer has led me to try the function of adding new hardware and it worked.  In case someone else needs to use it, here are the steps:

Control Panel

Adding hardware (opens the Add Hardware Wizard)
Next
Yes
Next
Add a new hardware device
Next
Find and install automatically
Next
If the printer is not found, click Next
Printers
Next
Use the following port: LPT1
Next
Highlight in the left for HP
Highlight as part of right for HP Laserjet 4
Next
Keep the existing driver
Next
Print a test page
Finishing.

  • Cannot install any os in a hp pavilion dv5 - 1120ev

    Hi, my friend has an hp pavilion dv5 - 1120ev, he had top, pre installed windows vista. He asked me that if I could make the computer faster, so I told him, of course, you need to change OS to do this, you must install windows 7, I said. So I took with me, put windows 7 dvd, boot from the cd/dvd drive, deleted all partitions, even the recovery partition (I didn't know it came without a copy of disk recovery tools), partitioned the drive into 2 two new partitions, formatted and continued to install the os on the primary. The dvd that I used has all versions of windows 7, 32 and 64 bit, tried all, it gets stuck on the process of expansion, to 0% files (only with one version, she was 14%, I can't remember which), and it gives me the "windows cannot install required files. the file may be corrupted or missing. "Sure... error code: 0 x 80070017. Then, I tried with another dvd with winodws 7 ultimate, same thing. I also tried with the disc do not split into two, one partition, just in case windows is having problems expanding all of the files, just in case, same thing. Then I thought it was a bios thing, he had to be updated, which to be honest there cause of the version it is F.0C, and in the support section of the hp site, I found a newer version of it, which is also described as necessary for the latest operating system upgrade. I thought wow, that's it, I found it, I will upload a version of it bootable, version bootable cd to be precise, cause the bios version there back does not support booting from usb devices, I'll update it and install the operating system. NOPE. The site has an exe of the bios version. I tried to make a disk bootable with the bios in there (with the option of nero boot disc), I guess that I've not done it right, it could be a solution, but I could use some help on this. I also tried to install windows xp, so that I can install it the update of the bios, the same thing, I get the same error, only with the old blue sceen scholl. Finally, I tried to install windows vista Home premium, just in case the bios for a reason any has only accepted this operating system, no way, same error again! So now I'm not stuck wth no operating system, a pc unusable, nothing can be installed on it. I asked my friend that if the cd/dvd drive had some kind of problem, he said, had no problem with game discs, their loading and installation of games. Please HELP I don't know what to do! Thank you

    Nevermind, I managed to solve the problem by taking the hard drive, put it in another phone and the windows installation, then put it back. It worked like charm, so the problem is 100% on the DVD player.

    Thank you

  • LaserJet MFP M125nw Pro: #2 cannot install LaserJet MFP M125nw Pro because of the error "the system cannot find the file specified."

    Hello

    I struggled in the last 2 days to install my new all in one Pro LaserJet MFP M125nw. I tried almost all the stuff Google and this community offered under the heading "the system cannot find specified file", without success. My frustration is huge because I'm not really a novice when it comes to solve similar problems.

    Here is what I do and what is happening:

    I downloaded the latest version of the complete software for XP HP offers through their Web site. I tried to install the drivers through the install wizzard, then manually (used for the files in the folder 7ZXXX in the directrory temp) but no matter what I do, I get the same error again and again. In fact XP recognizes the printer and the scanner, it installs even drivers for the scanner and it works but after maybe 50 attempts in different ways, XP couldn't install the printer driver.

    Here are a few screenshots:

    Hi cowmanchess,

    It seems that you are having problems with your USB port on the computer.

    Have you tried using a different USB port on the computer?

    Have you tried a new USB cable?

    How long is the USB cable you are using?

    You have a USB hub between the printer and the computer?

    Unplug the USB cable and then download the software on the link below. Wait that the installation of the software requires you to connect the cable. Let me know if you get the printer installed?

  • HP pavilion DV7-6c10so: cannot install HP Quick Launch on HP Pavilion DV7-6c10so

    I am really pulling my hair out on this one. Recently I swapped my brothers HARD drive into his laptop, and with that we decided to do a clean installation of windows. Evrything went smooth and well with the excavation and activate Windows. But I ran to a problem with the installation of some software and drivers HP. All drivers except 2 would install properly. Once, it was a hassel to install were the drivers Bluetooth and wi - fi. That's what happened when I tried to launch the exe to install:

    A window opens saying some information on im about to install software. I press next here.

    in the next step, I accept the EULA and press Next.

    Then begins the extraction process and once it has been done the window close.

    After this a windows installer window appears saying: preparing for installation...

    This was followed by: Please wait while Windows install configures the installation...

    During this stage, the progress bar fills upp to 100% and the window closes, and that's all. No message telling me the installation was a success or a failure. no error code or message. If I check the Device Manager I can be that the driver is not installed. I solved this problem by right-clicking on the device and then choose install driver and then find the extracted folder and choose the driver in there.

    But here's the tricky part and my problem, I need the software of quick launch buttons asswell but Installer is broken here as well. but since this isn't a driver I can't operate by itself.

    I let the Installer do its thing and all that with the drivers just sort of stops. No messagege not nothing. The program does not appear in the Control Panel, the task bar or in active processes (yes I restarted the computer). However I find it under Add/Remove programs in the Control Panel, so the computer thinks its installed. the same for HP software executives, but it is not as important.

    If I go to the extracted installation location I get a lage Setup window that says welcome to the quick launch HP Setup Wizard. Here, I choose to remove it ocr fix/repair it. I tried manny time to fix but I doesent help. I uninstalled and then installed using this installer manny thus times. Nothing helps. but atleasst with this installer, I get a quick launch of HP has been successfully installed message, yet it doesent work.

    what I tried:

    I installed each updates windows and .net.

    I tried to install an older version (for software farmeworks and quick launch).

    I reformatted and reinstalled the computer once again to see if the problem was caused by windows.

    go to the installation folder and run there (only for software frameworks).

    News of the computer:

    model: HP Pavilion DV7-6c10so

    Shipping os OS: Windows 7 Home premium x 64

    After reformatting operating system: Windows 7 Home Premium x 64

    I'm in the desperaste need to get this working because it's my brothers computer and it needs today to come back later and I said wrong I work just like before.

    Sorry for the bad English everybody!

    Hello

    In this case, it may be worth trying the following.

    Uninstall the current version QLB and restart.

    Download the version from the following link and save the installation program.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp56501-57000/sp56929.exe

    Use software such as 7-Zip manually extract the contents of the Setup program, and then run the setup.exe routine (20 KB) as an administrator since the extraction folder.

    This can or can not give an indication that it completed - if not, leave it for 5 minutes, then restart.

    If it still does not work, check if the routines are present in C:\Program Files (x 86) \Hewlett-Packard\HP quick launch area and let me know - I'm going to work but to hope to be back within the hour.

    I have trouble to install VMWARE in my laptop that is currently installed with Vista Home Premium 32 Bit. I then decided to go to XP X 64 bit and during the installation, I got a blue screen error message before you even load all files.

    Error message: STOP: 0x0000007b (0xfffffadf90a323c0)

    Help, please.

    Thank you very much

    Prince

    Also please let me know that the reader downloads for XP x 64 for DV5-1203ax

    Hello

    There are big problems with the drivers for XP 64 bit version, software, etc. This version is not as good as another system supported. I know that the there is a difference which can be very important to you. Then XP 32 bit can contain only 3, 5 GB of Ram and 64-bit version that can take all this chipset. If you need Ram full for any program or any other thing the best choice is to use both systems. One will be XP32 bit and second x 64 Vista or Win7 x 64 which is now in beta test mode.

    Until you do anything please readmy all post, please.

    Don't forget also then before starting the change for dual-boot on you laptop you need to prepare the XP CD. All information on this subject, you will find in the section of downgrade XP 32 bit which is written below in this post.

    If you want to use two systems on your computer, you will need to do it like this:

    Has) for Vista x 64 with XP 32 bit: how to dual boot with Vista installed first guide here.

    B) for XP 32 bit with Win7 x 64: how to dual boot with 32-bit XP installed first guide here.

    Downgrade XP 32 bit:

    Decommissioning of this model is not always easy, and your model is designed to work well with Vista. Please check first that link written by Joshua Wood and concentrate on problems that may appear when you install the sound card in it.

    Before going down do Vista backup. Here you have all the information, how do.

    Now you need to integrate your drivers Sata (only x 86 drivers) with nLite.

    Here are the Sata drivers for you. Just unRAR it drivers with Winrar.

    Here you will find the file .doc with guide how to integrate this with Windows XP Sata driver. (You will need to open the Microsoft Office).

    Here you will find the file with the same guide *.pdf . (You must open the Acrobat Reader software. Download link for this program here. Select your language and your system it.).

    Also, remember that you use at least version of WinXP SP2 . If you have not got the version SP2 here you can download this service pack and here you have a guide to how to integrate this with XP file written by nLite.

    In nLite, you can even burn your new XP CD with these changes.

    All the drivers, you will find in the guide of Cheryl General Guide of Downgrade XP for HP Laptops_Part 3.

    If you have problems make me know about it. I'll try to help you as quickly as possible.

If you save it on your desktop, simply open the installation program and it should be able to find the rest of the required information complete the 64-bit installation. After you have installed the sowtware connector that I came across another problem. Because I'm also on my PC wirlessley I couldn't actually Conect to Server console initially. I found that by disabliling the my security software internet temporarily, that I was able to connect, and everything seems fine. I hope it's useful. Thank you
