Deskjet 710/720/810/820/1000 Series printers - Patch for 64 bit Vista and Windows 7

There is a problem with the 64-bit, Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 or 8.1 drivers which causes the spooler crash with the following HP Deskjet printers:

DeskJet 710

DeskJet 712

DeskJet 720

DeskJet 722

DeskJet 810

DeskJet 812

Deskjet 820

DeskJet 822

DeskJet 1000

The attachment contains a fix for this problem for Vista and Windows 7.

[The patch does not work for Windows 8, 8.1, or 10 x 64 systems.  There are efforts to this address, if a solution is developed it will be shown here.  [{Edit - I did not progress by getting the patch to run in Windows 8 x 64.}]

First of all make sure that the driver for the installed printer.  If the driver has not been installed go to start devices and printers, add printer, the local printer, choose the appropriate port (for the converters, USB-parallel, the port likely USB001: or maybe USB002 :), then click Windows Update then choose HP for the manufacturer and select the appropriate printer.)

Apply the patch as follows: log in to the computer with an administrator account.  Download the patch by clicking on this link or on the trombone at the end of this post.  Save the hotfix on your computer, then unzip it.  Then, copy the three DLL files in the following directory: %windir%\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3

Note that %windir%\System32 is a system variable that points to the location of the Windows directory. For most systems it will be C:\Windows.  You can click Start, computer, and type %windir%\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 in the address bar and it is in the right place.

This can be done from a DOS command prompt if BACK is opened with the "run as Administrator" command or to explore with a copy and paste.  Depending on your UAC settings, you may need to provide confirmation.  Also allow existing files to be replaced if you are prompted.

This patch is not necessary and should not be applied to a 32-bit version of Vista or Windows 7.

Thanks to extraordinary Microsoft engineer Alan Morris forguidelines for patch.

Update - here is that of the more detailed installation instructions:

Download the patch on the DJ_Patch.zip at the bottom of the page and save it on your computer.  Now click on the file and open it, and then extract the fix in a directory that is easy to find. (I use c:\temp. If this directory does not exist you can create it as follows: open the administrative BACK prompts by clicking Start, all programs, accessories, and then right-click on CMD. EXE and select run as administrator. Click in the DOS window, and then type the following command:

MD c:\temp

CD \temp

Now extract the patch files in the c:\temp directory (all, extract c:\temp chose as a destination).

[Update - Windows security settings can prevent these files from being used, please open computer, type c:\temp in the address bar and then right click on each of the dll files and select Properties.]  If there is a message indicating the properties file has been downloaded from the internet and can be blocked and then unlock the file before continuing.]

Then, click back to the administrative DOS prompt and type the following: (the green stuff are comments, do not type them...)

*. DLL DIR (just to check that the files are there, it should list hpvdb720.dll, hpvdb820.dll and hpwm5db1.dll and perhaps others).

Net stop spooler (ensures that the files are not in use.)

Copy hpvdb720.dll C:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 (this is for the Deskjet 710/712/720/722)

Copy hpvdb820.dll c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 (this covers the Deskjet 820 and 822)

Hpwm5db1.dll c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3(this covers the Deskjet 1000 copy)

NET Start Spooler

Output

[Edit - note that these DLL files will already be in the directory.  You will get a warning asking if it's OK to replace the files, say "Yes".]

At this point, the patch is installed and ready to print.

Note that here printers do not support USB connections, they have only the parallel ports. [Edit - if your printer has a parallel port to use, it will be probably much less problematic than the use of a converter USB / parallel].   If you use a make you converter USB / parallel it is supported in your operating system.  The following messages are reported by cables USB-parallel that are supposed to work in Windows 7.   A driver is required for the converter USB / parallel besides the driver of the printer.  For converters supported, it is usually provided automatically in Windows 7.  Note: the appropriate to select for USB-parallel converter port is often USB001:.  I've heard of cases where the port was USB002: or LPT3: as well.  If the port you are using is unable (after applying the fix) try to change the port by going to start, devices and printers, right-click on your printer and select printer properties, then click the Ports tab.

Mick4 wrote: the problem is that I only could unzip the 3 dll files but don't know how to replace the bad dll files. Mick 4

If you use Windows 7 do the following: log in as a user with the administrater properties.  [The following assumes that you are using IE as your browser] Click on the here link and select "Save".   Once the download is complete, select "Open folder", then right-click on the DJ_patch.zip file and select extract all.   If extract all is not an option, then click on "Open with" and select Windows Explorer.

Leave the default directory and check the box "Show extracted files when you are finished", excerpt.   Click Start, computer, and type % windir%\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3.  Arrange the windows so that you can access the two parts of the window.  Go in the first pane and select the three files dll, hpvdb720.dll, hpvdb820.dll and hpwm5db1.dll.  Now drag and drop them to the % windir%\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 window, select copy and answer to 'replace' in the dialog box.

Note: %windir%\System32 is a system variable that points to the Windows directory.  For most systems it will be C:\Windows, but it can vary depending on the configuration of NDO of hardware configuration of the computer.  If you type %windir%\SysWoW64\cmd.exe in the address bar in Explorer or in start, search programs and files, it will find the right directory.

    Bob Headrick has helped me get my printer 722c make it work with Windows 7 on 23/07/10. I unplugged the printer to allow the new computer will be moved to its final location. When the system restarted, he wanted to install a driver for NECPICTY320, which he could not find. The printer does not work after restarting. Is the printer must be connected to the same USB port as it was when we did the original? There are indications that the repressive think that the printer is offline.

    The USB port may have changed due to the order of things were discovered.  You could try to go with the devices and printers, right-click on DJ 720 printer properties Ports and try USB002: or other USB ports that appear in the list one by one.

    I have a 722C desktop printer that I love dearly.  But my 2 year, OS is XP SP2, which is no longer supported by Microsoft.

    An option I have is upgrade to Windows 7.  My printer still work?  On the HP website there is no driver listed for the 722c, although there is one for the 720c.  I read in a forum with XP, these 2 printers use the same driver.  Could I use 720c for my 722C printer driver if I upgraded to W7?

    Basic 720c driver should work for the 722C, since they are the same for all intensive purposes.

  • HP Deskjet 990Cxi series professional and Windows 7

    I have this printer for several years and I've always been happy with it. Also, for some PHOTO prints, it was OK!

    Now, I installed Windows 7 (32 bit) on my PC and everything goes wrong with my impressions.

    The colors are bad and it is almost impossible to get a picture decent impression.

    I changed both cartridges in order to be sure that this was not a printer problem.

    Now I'm sure is a DRIVER problem.

    Everything was ok until I'm his own driver and WIN 7.

    All changes with the new OS.

    What to do? Is there a solution? Or it's time to change the printer?

    Thank you very much!

    The Deskjet 990 is approximately a dozen years at this stage if the drivers have not been updated for Windows 7 beyond the drivers supplied with Windows Update.  You can try the following: go to printers and devices, right-click on the Deskjet 990, select printer, port properties, and then note the port settings.  Then cancel from here, and in the devices and printers folder add a printer, chose the same port used for the Deskjet 990c, then, click Windows Update.  It will take a few minutes to repopulate.  Once he did seek the Deskjet 5550 HP (Hewlett-Packard no) series (HPA) (HP) and select this option.

    Deskjet 5550 driver should be compatible with your 990c and give a few additional choices in the driver.  The selection of 4800 dpi won't work for photos, but additional types of paper as well as the automatic paper type selection should work.  To Activate the duplexer using the Deskjet 5550 driver see here.

  • Where is the new driver for the DesignJet 1000 series?

    I am registered for the driver and Support alerts.  Today I received this for our 1050c HP large-format printer (plotter):

    Routine Driver Alert , August 10, 2011
    Products of the series of printers HP Designjet 1000 light Installer more HP ePrint and share (ver v447.40.4200): HP Designjet 1000 Printer series
    OS: Windows
    Description: This package installs the drivers for 32-bit and 64-bit platforms, and also includes the package of ICC profiles to provide a set of color for types of HP paper profiles.

    However, when I click on the link, I am told:

    We're sorry, we couldn't find the document description driver you asked.

    Subscribe to the drivers and support alerts to be notified when information is added.

    Which is exactly what started the process.

    I am not really interested in the ePrint and store solution.  However, I am interested in new drivers when they come out.

    It is a tracer of several years old we are out of warranty.  Which excludes me an online chat with someone at HP who could tell me the download link.

    My current driver is 4.8.4.  This seems to be a series of numbering different from what is stated above.  My hypothesis is that the link above includes a newer driver than what I use.

    Anyone know where to get this new driver, or know where I can contact HP directly to find out?

    Thank you!

    The only thing I find is the ePrint and share stuff here.   You can have the best results, post in the forum HP Designjet here, Designjet experts hang out there.
