jes2014,

First run, delete print jobs to eliminate any print job stuck in the queue.

Unplug the printer.

Download and run the patch (cleaning printer utility) until it prompts you to restart your computer.

Restart your computer. Make sure that the printer is deleted. Driver Manual printer removal

Download the 32-bit drivers for Windows 8 32 bit Vista or 64-bit drivers for 64 bit Vista Windows 8. Install the Vista drivers in Vista compatibility mode, you will get a message, the printer is not connected. Connect the printer at the moment (power on).

  • DeskJet 1050 - J410a: HP Deskjet 1050 does not print after upgrade of Windows 10

    Dear forum,

    I recently upgraded my HP Windows OS 8.1 for Windows 10 desktop computer. My deskjet 1050 printer, which worked fine before the upgrade, does not properly more print after the upgrade.

    I used HP Print and Scan Doctor several times, indicating no any problems. I am able to scan documents, the question is limited to printing. I also deleted and reinstalled the drivers at least 2 times (and restarted all systems on a regular basis).

    • A "test print" works very well.
    • When I print a PDF from the edge, the printer creates output but not good quality.
    • When I print an office word document, pages came out empty.

    3 cases have a common behavior, whenever I get an error message. "Morning maken puts printer niet mogelijk. Duch is for "cannot connect to the printer.".

    Do you have any tips for me?

    With sincere friendships.

    HeyPieter_Belgium

    Welcome to the HP Forums, I'd love to help you with printing problems you encounter. Although I am not sure what is cause of the error of communication, or of poor quality, I suspect it has something to with the pilot and the recent upgrade. I suggest to uninstall the software, remove the Chuck from the properties of the server, and then put it back using the printer Installation Wizard. I will list the links and instructions below to help you in each of these steps.

    HP printers - uninstalling the software of the printer (Windows)

    Remove the driver from the print server properties:

    1. in the folder "devices and printers".

    2. choose "print server properties.

    • Win XP - with no printer selected, click 'File' then 'server properties '.
    • Windows Vista - with no printer selected, press 'Alt' and then click 'file' then 'server properties '.
    • Windows 7/8, 8.1 and 10 -select any printer in the "Devices and printers" folder and click on "Print server properties" above.

    3. click on the "Drivers" tab at the top of the window "properties of the print server.

    4. choose the printer that you want to uninstall, and then click 'remove '.

    5. choose "Remove driver only.

    6. the next screen will give a warning, letting you know that the removal of the driver package will remove it from the system. Click 'Yes' to say are you sure you want to do.

    If documents are stuck in the spooler to print, you see an error, cancel all documents waiting in the print queue or try restart the spooler to print, and then try to delete the driver from 'Print server properties' again. If she will not always remove the sachet, restart the computer and the printer should correct this error "in use" and allow the driver to be removed.

    Download and run the Installation Wizard for printer: www.HP.com/go/Tools 

    If this solves the problem, please indicate your post as solved by clicking on the accept button Solution below. If you need help, let me know!

    Thank you.

  • OfficeJet 5745: Cannot print after update of Windows 10

    I've updated to Windows 10 and now have problems printing.  Help!  I've done all the troubleshooting, coil status stuff!  I'm used to be able to print from the internet, scanning to my computer or email and print wireless from my phone.  I now can not print anything!  I tried to install Windows updates.  Should what printer I configure default network or regular?  Use the printer pdf microsoft thing?  I am desperate... saved my bank statement online (pdf) to my documents and it would not print the Bank or my documents!  Before this I had problems after that my hard drive crashed and I got a new hard drive.   When my hard drive crashed I was using WINDOWS 10 and everything on the big printer worked; they sent back with new hard drive on windows 8.1 and I had I thought that the upgradew would solve the questions.   I could print and scan but no wireless for my phone on the new HDD in windows 8.1 and upgrade to 10 thought would solve my problems, but now it's worse... Help!

    Hi @savra,

    If your computer is connected to the printer on a wireless network, you do not want to send print jobs to the network printer.

    Here is a support document to help with printer after Windows 10 upgrade problems - after Windows 10 Upgrade, printer problems occur.

    Aside to make sure Windows updates are up to date, there are a few other updates that can help with printing.

    Microsoft has released an update that is supposed to help with wireless printing - Cumulative Update for Windows 10.

    There was also an update for Adobe Flash Player in Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge who can help get this impression of your bank's site - Update for Adobe Flash Player.

    Please let me know how it goes.

  • Dell AIO Printer 962 Photo and Windows 7 32 bit

    OK, so I thought naively: "you had Windows XPII SP III for several years.  Time to update. "I bought a program of 32-bit Windows 7 for my old Dell Dimension E520.   Thank God I have the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor printed report that told me what to expect with a certain number of programs, including Dell AIO Printer 962 Photo, Jasc Paint Shop Photo Album, WordPerfect12 and a few others wouldn't work, or have problems with Windows 7.    First of all the Dell AIO Printer 962 Photo.  Despite the fact I've updated drivers, and the small list of control on the screen tells me it is read to use, I get a message saying something like "your computer is unable to communicate with your printer.  He then advises me to unplug/re-plug the USB power cord cord, restart the computer, etc..  I did all that, nothing.  Second, the software I bought Corel, WordPerfectX6.  The thing installs OK.  Then I try to run it and I get a message stating: "WordPerfectX6 has stopped working" No. S_t!  I tried to uninstall and reinstall and nothing.  I had a call to the toll-free line 1-taking in charge, but I swear to you that I am about to return the thing and just do with NotePad.  What is essential now is Dell

    Dell, web site, there is no driver Windows 7 not listed for your printer on the printer control, so everything you download may not work. The thing nearest Dell listed are Vista drivers, you can try the 32 bit version.

    Cut first download auto driver from windows update.

    Start right click System computer/properties/Advanced/settings/device installation settings/tick won't let me choose and never install win update and save the changes then install driver.
