• Windows 7 Windows cannot connect to the printer error

  Hi, since a few days ago I was connected to a network printer and everything was fine. Today, nothing works. I removed the printer thinking that would help (and I could go out and find him), BAD!

  I click on add a printer > add a network printer > select the network printer and get a box that says: I need to install a driver from the other machine, then I make him trust, etc blah blah blah, click OK and then get this error.

  Windows cannot connect to the printer.

  Operation failed with error 0x000003e3

  Both machines are running Windows 7 x 64.

  I googled all night with no solutions. Please help, I need to be able to print! Thank you!

  I solved the problem. I had to join the homegroup computer, was too attached to the printer. Once I did, he saw the printer and installed the necessary driver. I can print now!

• Windows cannot connect to the printer. The name of the printer has been correctly entered, or the specified printer has lost its connection to the server.

  A Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP2 32-bit computer is a field, the file and print server.

  A computer on the domain is a machine of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit with HP DesignJet 500 24 printer connected via USB.  The printer is running the latest firmware.  The PC is running the latest 64-bit drivers with no problems to the host machine printing.  The host also has the latest drivers 32-bit (x 86) installed by downloading by other computers on the network.  The printer is configured to share with the share name of HPDJ500.

  Now, on a machine Windows XP Pro SP3 32 bit on the field, I'm trying to connect to the shared printer.  Add a printer > click Next in the wizard of > check "a network printer or a printer attached to another computer" and then click Next > click on "Find a printer in the directory", then click Next > click Find now > HPDJ500 in the list below (the XP machine can see the shared printer on the Windows 7 computer!) and click OK.  At this point, I get an error that says: "Windows cannot connect to the printer.  The name of the printer has been correctly entered, or the specified printer has lost its connection to the server.  For more information, click Help. »

  Alternatively, if I right-click on the HPDJ500 printer listed, then click on connect, I get the same error message but I also see a separate window that says "Connecting to HPDJ500 on H2.ws.net" with the lively projector.  This window also disappears as soon as I clear the error message.

  Please note that this printer worked perfectly as a printer shared, hosted on a machine XP 32 bit on the field.  It works perfectly for the new Windows 7 64-bit machine, but we cannot connect from anywhere else on the network (including the server which translates the same exact error message).  On the server, I also preinstalled drivers thinking there was a problem with a 32-bit computer, trying to grasp the correct drivers from the host 64-bit Windows 7, but that doesn't change anything.

  How connect to this printer?

  Try using the path UNC path of the printer in the Add Printer Wizard.

  Add a printer > network printer > connection to this printer ((deuxieme point)

  Click next to browse (leave blank, the name field) or type the UNC path of the printer (i.e. \\Computername\Printername) path

• Problem adding network printers; received this message error «Windows cannot connect to the printer or the name of the printer...» »

  Hello

  I have a Windows XP pro (Lenovo) that I recently ran the recovery and returned to certain configurations of 1.5 years. Now I can't add a network printer and get always the message error «Windows cannot connect to the printer or the name of the printer...» ». I ping the printer and all on my network can add these printers, it's just that a machine that fails to add network printers.

  I disabled the firewall, but were still unable to add the printer. Then I found some difficulties to register for a similar problem, but they were not useful... It really becomes a big headache, especially Windows restore does not work...

  I strongly suspect that 1.5 years, someone has renamed the printer.  Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the print server through My Network Places and see what it's callednow .  Otherwise, you could ask your network/system administrator.  You should know...

• Windows cannot connect to the printer. Access is denied.

  From: Steve

  Desperately, I try to print from my laptop Windows Vista Home Premium to a shared printer on my home wireless network.  The shared printer is connected to a XP Home machine.  This machine is wired (via a LAN cable) to the wireless router.  I can 'see' the printer that I want to use but trying to to connect to it. I get the error message "Windows cannot connect to the printer.  Access is denied. "I would be grateful for any help.

  Kind regards.

  -Steve

  From: Alan Morris [MSFT]

  Since the XP machine is HOME, I don't think that the permissions dialog box is accessible.

  Run the XP network sharing wizard again and see if it affects safety correctly on sharing.

  Is the printer you share one that has drivers provided with Windows XP?

  In the meantime we will at least get the printer works for you.

  Create a local printer on Windows Vista; Creation of a Local Port in the form \\XPMACHINE\Printsharename (this will send the files by using the redirector instead of the RPC service).  Install the Windows Vista driver for the device.

  You can print because print$ access is required for printer drivers.

  I have a Windows Vista laptop. I usually have no problem printing over the network to my University Library. Then I bought a new Kodak printer to my apartment which I also configured to print wireless. For about a day, I could print from these two networks, depends on the location.

  Hello Lauren,

  Please take a look at this Microsoft article on "networked printer troubleshooting:

• Add Printer__ Windows cannot connect to the printer. Access is denied

  Laptops have just loaded with Windows 7 Pro on my domain. Try to load printers to a print server. Print server running Windows 2003 R2.

  When I log in with a user profile, I go to devices and printers------click Add a printer-network printer select------I see a list of printers on the print server - choose the printer that I want to load------asked if I have confidence in this printer - click install drver------opens window files Coping - green bar moves as if it were loading drivers------then just before you get to the window asking if you want to make a default printer. open window that says - Connect Add Printer (X RED) for printer Windows cannot connect to the printer. Access is denied

  Changes to device settings to allow the user load the drivers. Check the security access (everyone has permissions) for this printer on the print server.

  Disable UAC control on the laptop. Group Policy has changed restrictions point and print.

  But this same user can log on to another computer on the network, which has loaded XP Pro and can load the same printers that are denied with windows 7 pro

  As a network administrator, I can log on to laptop computers and load A B and C printers.

  So I can log on as a user and then I can load A B and C printers, but as a user I want printer D I get the same message as above.

  Thank you in advace for your help

  This is the solution I received and seems to work.

  You have to go into the local group policy on Windows 7 computers, and not on the server.

  Go to the Group Policy:

• Windows cannot connect to the Internet using HTTP, HTTPS or FTP. __This is probably caused by settings of firewall on this computer. __

  I recently installed the version of Norton, after that I was unable to use the internet, I thought it was the Norton firewall settings. After having playing with her for 30 minutes, I gave up and uninstalled Norton. I have disabled the firewall, I have reset the default settings. Here is the message I get when I run a diagnostic. A crazy thing is that I can connect to internet when I connected to this same computer as a guess.

  Please help me!

  Windows cannot connect to the Internet using HTTP, HTTPS or FTP.
  This is probably caused by the settings of firewall on this computer.

  Check the settings of firewall for the HTTP port (80), HTTPS port (443) and FTP port (21).

  Hi rhonda9937,

  1. what browser you are using to connect to the internet?

  It is not recommended to keep Windows Firewall disabled on the computer.

  This would happen if the ports are not open in the Windows Firewall.

  I suggest that you open ports in Windows Firewall and check if it works.

  I have reported this problem on my PC at home that connects to the internet. My laptop runs Vista Home Premium and I can't connect to the internet.

This problem prevents limited users to logon to the system. As administratvie user, you can view the system event log to see why the service did not respond. "(have no idea how or what it means) when I go to the task bar you want to connect to a network, it is said:" the dependency service or group could not start"and if I go ahead and press"connect to a network"it says it can't find.  I search for computers on the network (who I'm sitting next to) and then try to diagnose the problem and it cannot. I have limited knowledge of this type of problem. Anyone have this problem and how to fix it?

• Windows cannot connect to the printer operation failed with error 0x0000007e

  Hello

  OS: Windows 7 x 86 SP1

  Print server: Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 x 86

  Printer: HP LaserJet 8150 printer shared and listed in the directory

  Problem:

  When I try to install the printer in the Add Printer Wizard, choose install a network printer, she finds a driver on the server, installs, then brings up an error (see topic).

  In the Print Service logs, I see the following:

  "The print spooler failed to load a plug-in module, 0x7e error code. See the user context information for event data.

  I can install the printer very well if I choose local printer, new port, TCP/IP, and enter the IP address. This isn't a solution, as users cannot be expected to go through this process, or for me to go around all the machines and do it manually. More I want than the print jobs to the print server's spool, and I think that the local installation method uses the local spooler.

  I tried to install the driver of HP UPD PCL 6, x 86 and x 64, on the print server.

  When I check what the client machine pilot chose to install by going to the properties of the print server, I can see that he chooses the former driver "HP LaserJet 8150 Series PCL 6". I presume that it is incompatible with Windows 7, that's why I am getting the error cannot connect.

  How can I get Windows 7 clients to use the UPD?

  I left our Windows 2003 print server to a Server 2008 and comes to install the HP UPD x 86 and x 64 for each printer. Now everything works perfectly! All XP and 7 customers can install printers network without problem.

  I suspect that the problem was due to have many different versions of drivers on the old print server, and customers did not know which to use?
