Defects of printer driver

My HP Compaq dx2400 microtour keeps telling me that the drivers for my printer HP Deskjet F4580 are not loaded and cannot be found?  I removed the printer and download the full suite for the printer, twice, but I have the same problem...  The printer is working and I can't find a fault?

What's wrong??

Hello muskrat,

I'm sorry to hear about the message that you receive by saying that your drivers for your Deskjet F4580 is not found. I see you have uninstalled and reinstalled the full featured driver and software and encounter the same problem. I would like to help. I suggest a number of things.

1. Save and run - print HP and Scan Doctor

2. check the updates from HP

I hope this helps!

  • Epson 830 xp print driver does not (Windows 7-32 bit)

    Last week, I bought a new printer multifunction Epson XP-830.  I have used Epson before without problem.  Can't get the driver to load.  Has been able to load the scanner software.  Driver is not displayed.  I think that the computer sees the right printer cannot find a driver that loads.  I loaded the driver for the Epson web site.  The drive, they sent me will not read in my drive.  I spent a lot of time on the phone with Epson troubleshooting - in the end, he said to call Microsoft... I feel I'll send this printer back.  I have disable check verification in the wind, it was an unsigned driver.  When I ran windows update - the 830 do not show upward well that several other models of xp has.  There was a generic of the 800 series and I tried this - it loaded - but it did not work.  Very frustrated.

    The symptoms you describe its pretty strange.  You may be correct that the unit you received is defective.

    Recently, I have not run Windows Update to update the list of printer drivers on my Win 7 system, so I do not have drivers from the Epson XP series on this system.  However, looking at the Windows Update Catalog indicates you're right: there are drivers there for XP - 800 series, XP-810 series and XP-850 series printers (as well as upper and lower XP series), but not XP-830.  Here is what I expected appear in the list of drivers when you use the "Add a printer" Wizard after running Windows Update.

    However, Epson has an available for download driver for XP-830.  Have you downloaded the printer driver or you downloaded the "drivers and utilities Combo Package Installer?

    For Windows 7 32-bit, you downloaded epson16387.exe (combo package installer) or epson16463.exe (driver only).  What file did you, in fact, download?

    Also bizarre is your statement that ' the disk they sent me won't play in my player. "

    • Wasn't there a CD supplied with the printer?  If there was, what happened when you tried to use it?
    • What exactly happens when you insert the CD they you sent in your drive?

    The first time you tried to install the printer, if using the CD supplied with your printer or otherwise, did you make sure that the printer was NOT connected to the computer until the next DAY, the software has been installed?

    At this point, you have all the printers installed on this computer?  In other words, if you click on the round to start and go to devices and printers, which icons appear, in the category 'Printers and faxes' or in the category "not specified"?

  • Epson printer driver does not appear in the printer & Scanner window

    I downloaded the latest driver for my Epson Artisan 50 printer OS 10.11.5. I ran the installer, and it seems that the installation was successful. But when I am preferences system-> printers and Scanners and click the + to add the new printer, it does not appear in the list 'Add '. How ca I add the driver to my preferences printers and Scanners?

    You do not add a printer driver for printers and Scanners.  You add the printer itself.

    The Epson Artisan 50 is not a printer capable of AirPrint, as shown here:

    On AirPrint - Apple Support

    (I have an Epson taking is an AirPrint printer, and it works very well with OS X 10.11.5.)

    The Artisan 50 printer seems (but not scanner) software in the Apple driver:

    Therefore, follow the instructions here:

    Where can I find the download of the base for a HP deskjet D4260 printer driver? I have a new Windows 8 tablet running, and the only thing I can find is downloadable for the complete software suite.  References from the HP website they have a base driver download but you don't tell where.  Search all of lead them to the download of the complete suite.

    Hello eworth3,

    I followed on the specific page for this driver and found the same thing - my apologies that there is not a link on this page for basic training.  I did a search on the site hp.com for this text and it took me to a page that has the base driver... I have included the link below.  This is the basic feature software solution and is a driver software intended only to users who want a basic print and driver scanning for use with their device from HP all-in-one.

    Thank you for that bring to our attention: I would ask to add the link to the specific page.

  • C6280: Could not locate the printer driver base download

    We have lost our ability to print on the same day as Windows 10 has been applied automatically.  The next day, I have restored our computer to Windows 7 without error, but we have lost our ability to print.  Then, I downloaded the print driver full of features, but received an error message that Setup encountered an unexpected error (code 2203) during the installation of this package.  I tried to use the two methods (USB and ethernet).    I uninstalled and reinstalled the software again, but the same problem has resulted.    I also used the "HP Print and Scan Doctor' and 'impression' Assistant and still have the same problem.  Something in the printer driver fails during installation.  I spent days looking for possible solutions.  Now I'm ready to just install a basic printer driver - but I can't find where it is on the site of HP for Windows 7 (64 bit) for the HP PhotoSmart C6280 all-in-One.  Can you help me?

  • Reduced with the universal print driver in Windows 7 manual duplex function

    On March 13, 2013, I downloaded the last PCL 6 Universal Printer driver for my Laserjet CP1518NI printer.   Manual duplex printing is now a mess!  In Windows XP, duplexing manual was available for Microsoft documents, but for them, it worked: if I chose to print on both sides, a pop-up window seem to remember to press 'OK' on the printer when it was time to print the second side. I could close this window without affecting the driver himself things correctly configured: he printed the pages first, in reverse order, collected if necessary and rotation so that when this side is complete, all I had to do was take pages on the output tray in put them directly in the input tray and then press OK on the printer, and the other next printed pages, in good order and the correct orientation.

    Here's the worst: when you print a double-sided Word file, I now get a BOX of DIALOGUE MICROSOFT WORD asks me to press "OK" in the dialog box, not on the printer, when you are ready to start printing the second side.  With an open dialog, I can't work with other Word files to the end of the first side printing.

    Is then the settings: apparently, I need to change the settings manually (not what I planned "Manual" Duplex would!) to learn how to print the first side (even pages) in reverse, reverse order / rotation, then the second side (odd pages) in normal order do not hit?  Do I have to change the settings before printing the second side?

    If I don't make all the settings myself, it just prints odd pages in the wrong direction and DISORDER.  If I do all the settings myself, which is exactly the pilot done for me, other than preventing me from working on other documents, the document while current is printing?

    I'm especially disappointed because the old driver worked very well.  I just updated the driver because of what turned out to be another problem.  Sigh.

    In reading the manual. on page 35, it describes how to enable the feature if you have not already:

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c01070718.PDF

    According to the available information this process should not be performed by the driver. However, as I said above, almost all the settings you described I not know can be defined in MS Word. Back to history versions of the drivers, I see the same types of drivers that have been developed for Windows XP and the information I have shows that this function must not have changed.

    In addition, similarly, you should be able to allow printing of greys through the preferences of printer or the printer properties Advanced.

    I would like to know if this helps!

  • Printer driver crashes when printing with Office 2013/8 64-bit Windows

    Printer: HP Color LaserJet CM1312nfi

    Printer driver: V5.1 (to date, downloaded from the HP support Web site) or generic V5.6

    OS: Windows 8 Professional 64-bit

    When I try to print an Excel document with Excel 2013 and V5.1 printer driver, the program freezes and must end with the Task Manager. This always occurs with the same document, but not with all the documents. Program also crashes when opening the preview before printing to the same document.

    The same document prints fine with V5.6 generic print driver and with the driver supplied with Windows 8.

    The same document prints fine with the driver version 5.1 on Windows 7 and Office 2010. The combination of Windows 7/Office 2013 has not been tested. Windows 8/Office 2010 combination has also not been tested.

    When I try to print an empty document with the word 2013 and the generic printer V5.6, the program driver crashes and must end with the Task Manager.

    My conclusion is that the HP printer drivers have a problem with Windows 8 or office 2013 or a combination of both.

    The printer driver supplied with Windows 8 and is installed automatically is useful as a temporary workaround, but it lacks some options, e.g. manual duplex.

    Upon request, I am ready to send the Excel document by e-mail for verification of the problem.

    For any help or suggestion will be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,

    ULI

    It worked!  Thank you very much.

    Where others have difficulties to find the offending setting, here's another way to track him down.

    -> control Panel-> devices and printers-> (select printer-> right mouse)-> printer properties-> settings-> tab Installable Options (bottom)-> Printer Status Notification-> change on 'off '.

    Thank you!!

  • Printer driver is not compatible with Vista

    The software with my hp psc 1210 printer is incompatible with my new laptop with Vista operating system. This screw my laptop closed loading! How can I find a driver download what suits Vista?

    and why put this here in the forum for Toshiba notebook if your printer isn't even a Toshiba product?
    The printer driver must be requested from the manufacturer of the printer and not the manufacturer of the computer/laptop.

    I guess it's an older printer and the drivers were only compatible with Win XP and more.

    To contact the manufacturer of the printer to get the drivers for Vista or Win 7

    PS: how about these drivers:
