Cannot print with Deskjet 720C on Windows 7

Bought a Pavilion G5401sc with Windows 7. Can't print using my Deskjet 720C. Pilot installs ok when I connect the printer by USB. Printer deleted physically and devices & printers, add printer... According to the suggested workaround solution. Tried to connect the printer to a laptop that has Windows 7, same problems. Connect the printer to an XP computer and it prints without a problem...

Any help would be appreciated...

Found a workaround in another forum... prints fine now.

  • Cannot print with a HP 2200 printer in o/s Windows 7 Premium Home

    I am able to print on the printer HP LaserJet 2200 with a HP PC with Windows 7 Pro 64-bit (this PC was purchased 9-2010); However, with a new Dell PC as Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit, I can't print to the HP 2200 printer. It is a standalone PC not connected to the network with 16 GB of RAM, i7 CPU, with USB cable to the printer. I have no problem with my printer HP DeskJet 5550 10 year, printing from the new Dell PC, but the HP 2200 printer aged 11 year cannot meet the Dell PC.  I tried to change the USB to different outlets, deleteting the driver, reboot, reinstall the driver (after first unplug the printer and USB cable). The driver will install because the computer is working when I plug in it, USB cable, but when I try to print the printer icon in the status bar at the bottom of the screen appears and says "zero documents waiting for my PC. I tried to change various settings in the printer properties dialog box. tried to see if necessary to change queue settings (they have not), tried to change the networking to allow the discovery of public networks, tried to download and install the PCL5 and PCL6 site Web HP's drivers and even tried to run the driver in compatibility mode for XP in the hope that would work.

    The pilot keeps picking DOT4-001 as port on the Dell PC that worked well on HP PC. I am surprised to see the printer 9 year would choose a USB port and printer 2200 11 years old would want a DOT port. The old HP PC was also a standalone PC with USB connection to the printer. The two PCs have factory installed operating systems.

  • Cannot print with Windows 7 and Photosmart 7350

    Hello. Recently, I converted my laptop to Windows 7 Home Premium OS. I have no problem printing to work with this computer of our HP LaserJet but when I enter the problem starts. I have a wireless home network with my Photosmart 7350 connected to my desktop computer that is still running XP. The wizard sees the printer and adds but cannot print a test page. He says that it is waiting, then the print job disappears. I downloaded the Vista driver for the printer. When I run the troubleshooter, it cannot determine the problem. No surprise as convenience stores rarely did help. I got around the problem by sending documents to the desktop so far and then print it from there, but it gets old. Any ideas?

    Please install the printer on Windows 7 by using the following steps:

  • Cannot print with HP c4385 all in one.

    Had to install my lenovo Y430 lap top as my main home computer. something happened to my old ibm XP pro computer.

    The lenovo is using windows 7 pro. I downloaded and installed the new driver HP printer... does not work. I went through all the diagnostic tests for the lenovo and the c4380 printer. I was able to print a test page through the router wireless twice (through his own diagnosis). But anyway I put the thing I cannot print docs or photos through the thing that either wireless or connected directly to a USB port. I tried all 3 USB ports (and when I plug & unplug the printer - the system gives a boing) and I changed the usb cable to a nother I know works. still not printing. I need this device impression that I run a small business from home. I was able to scan with the device. but no impression of any sort, I nominated this printer as the default printer in the computer (it is the only printer attached to the computer). The computer says that I don't have printed successfully the doc... but no doc prints.   Help

    Thanks Bob

    Looks like you may have a conflict of driver with something on the new system. Try to assign the printer with another driver. I'll link the instructions below.

    To use a different print driver for printers HP with Windows 7:
    1. click on the start menu.
    2 click devices and printers.
    3. right click on your printer.
    4. Select printer properties.
    5. click on the Advanced tab.
    6. click on new driver.
    7. click on next.
    8. Select HP in the first list.
    9. Select Deskjet 450 in the second.
    10. click Next.
    11. click on finish.
    12. click on apply.
    13. click OK to close the window.

  • Slow printing with DJ 970cse in Windows 8

    I recently started using Windows 8 (32 bit).  Previously, I had used a LJ 4 p both a cse 970 DJ under Windows XP Pro (32 bit) without any problem with a printer.  Since the installation of Windows 8, the LJ 4 p works fine but not the DL 970 CSE.

    The problem with the Deskjet printer, is that after half a page impression will slow down considerably, take up to 15 minutes to print a full page of text, single spaced.  This is the case for all, but the last page of a print job that prints at the speed.  Printing rate slows down, 8 Windows displays a message that the document is not printing, even though printing will continue up to the end, just very slowly.

    The computer uses an Intel E8400 processor and has 8 MB of RAM.  The hard drive in the system is 2 TB.

    I tried to uninstall the printer, unplug the USB cable, restarted and connect the work cable with Windows 8 reinstall the driver.  I also followed the instructions that appear to match the best printer on the HP support site.  None of the usual approaches to the problems of drivers seems to help.  Interestingly, the DJ 970cse printer is not listed, only the DJ 970 cxi.  I don't know if it's important for a driver problem (maybe it means that the version of cse is not supported by HP or Microsoft more).

    I would appreciate a lot any insight and suggestions.

    Thank you.

    You are welcome SGMidas

    Thanks for keeping me posted and let me know what happens.

    With how long the printer takes to print, it is possible that it is hardware related. Just letting you know in case it comes to her, but I hope that the right driver just needs to be selected. Finally before blame us on equipment made me know the problem persists and we can try another driver or two.

  • Printing with Deskjet 1010

    I've been running my 1010 Deskjet for several months; Windows XP, all updates.
    For some reason, after replacing ink recently, I had a lot of printing problems; PDF files have been incredibly slow, sometimes printing multiple pages before suddenly deciding to spit just to start a blank page and occasionally a half page of printing before you spit out the rest.
    It was often impossible, requiring a reboot to try to cancel the current print jobs.
    I uninstalled the software, reinstalled the base driver and managed to get some pages done before becoming again the white pages.
    Any ideas?

    Hey @WombatBob,

    Thanks for getting back to me regarding this printing problem.

    I don't think that there is a problem with your print spooler. If that were the case, no program would be able to print to your product. As you said, you are able to print with Word and you are just having a problem with PDF files.

    You print through Adobe PDFs?

    If so, you can try to uninstall and reinstall your Adobe Reader program.

    Adobe Reader

    Should this not solve your problem, I think you may have a driver conflict. To resolve this problem, you can load another driver of your printer to see if it prints all types of files correctly.

    How to add another driver:

    1. Click on the Start menu and select Printers and faxes
    2. In the printers and Faxes folder, right click on your HP Deskjet 1010 and left click on Properties
    3. Left click on the Advanced tab
    4. Left-click on new driver
    5. When the new window driver opens just hit 'next' until you see a list of manufacturers on the left and a list of Printers on the right.
    6. Select HP as the manufacturer on the left
    7. DeskJet 990c select the printer on the right. If Deskjet 990c appears only to select "Windows Update" at the bottom left and once the update has been completed, you will be able to select Deskjet 990c.
    8. After that selection Deskjet 990c hit next complete the new driver Wizard
    9. The title of the Properties window, select 'apply' but do not hit OK
    10. Select the general tab
    11. Rename your printer HP Deskjet 1010 to
    12. Click OK

    Once the driver is added in, try to print a PDF file and see how it goes.

    I look forward to hear from you. Fingers crossed!

    Hey Hashiriya Allan

     
    Microsoft licenses part of it is that a single license is for a single installation
    You can not have vista installed on two laptops using the same product key
    and if vista was preinstalled on your old laptop this is an oem license and cannot be transferred to another machine

  • disappointment that printshare cannot print with wifi

    Hello

    is it me or is it a huge disappointment printshare cannot print unlimited pages in wifi connect printed. only 20 pages? is it serious? Anyone know of any alternative to print via wifi unlimited times or I just have to export all to gmail in the form of png images and then print from my computer.

    The printershare limit is due to the fact that Lenovo has not in fact given us full of printershare versions, but rather the same demo that you can download the free market... Please see my thread on purchase if you want to go this route, because the on-board Lenovo version is some kind of scam (same as the regular version of the Android market but you can not use it on other devices).

    Lenovo has been quite misleading in their marketing when he came to this apps bundled $ 150.

  • My officejet 7500 cannot print with my iphone

    My new officejet 7500 print with my iphone first days... but after I cancel some iphone the printer does print more.  you need to reset my printer?  I try to use another iphone... is the same...

    Hey kennethwk

    Here are some measures you can take to try to get your iPhones reprint

    1. Unplug your router and your printer from power. Cut your iPhone (completely off, not only locked.) Wait 30 seconds
    2. Plug in your router. Expect that your router is entirely online (usually takes 30 to 60 seconds)
    3. Plug your printer. Wait until it returns to its home screen
    4. Turn your iPhone
    5. Try to print

    Hope this helps, if not, let me know

  • Cannot print with Epson 3880 LR3

    I'm more able to print with LR3 on my Epson 3880.  I have printed a lot of pictures on this topic in the past and when I tried to print on this issue in the last weeks, I go through the normal process on my Mac Pro with Snow Leopard (10.6.8) and everything seems normal.  LR3 treats the photos and the Epson icon appears in my bar jobs and it shows the work as having been completed - but nothing prints.  The computer is of the view that he published with success my photos.

    I tried to delete and add the printer, but that did not help.  I also tested my connection through the Epson Status Monitor.  I can print a test page with this utility and check that he had to clean the print head.  The computer seems to be able to talk to the printer, but it will not print photos.

    Another thing that seems a little unusual is that I can choose a specific color to use for my specific photo paper profile, but I can't find is no longer the setting in the printer driver that says "turn off color management."

    I checked the update of the software twice, and I have the latest updates installed.

    I'm stuck and need to print photos for the family.  Any suggestions are appreciated!

    Don

    Tip: Let NOT the Mac OS system updates ever update the Epson print drivers or you could find yourself in the original situation. Always install or update the drivers directly from Epson. I had a similar problem, as you point out, had to reset the printing system and install the Epson driver. Everything was fine until I leave the Apple system update install what felt to Apple has been upgraded to the driver, then hell is lost.
