HP Deskjet 6980: windows 10 + HP6980 to print YELLOW

The driver for the HP Deskjet 6980 for Windows 10 mistranslates colors sent to the printer. It's what I use is the only new driver for this printer for Windows 7/64.

Specifically, the YELLOW does not print at all - anything this spell either green blue. I tested this feature by printing two versions of color bars. Indeed, there is no yellow printing, and all the Greens are printed blue. And, Yes, I use new color and black cartridges, so no need to ask about it.

I built a computer completely NEW with NEW hard disks and a clean install of Windows 10/64-bit via USB 3.0 drive. The only two things that the surplus of my old Windows XP system are the printer and the scanner (HP Scanjet 4370) which worked perfectly on XP system. The scanner has its own problems with Windows 10 and the HP Photosmart Premier does not work (but it is a different matter). I downloaded the new drivers for both devices.

Apparently, from what I read on the site of HP, the printer or the scanner are supported any longer. I consider that very rude and unacceptable, especially since no appropriate replacement printer is available new from HP with good quality that I've come to expect from HP.

All that said, is anyone know how I can get my printer to print YELLOW?

  • DeskJet 6980 and rt - no available driver windows

    I just bought a Microsoft Surface with RT

    I have a network HP Deskjet 6980 printer which I want to connect. The installation page using advanced printer, I can find the printer on the network and I would like the thought that the Surface must be able to download the drivers for the printer but instead, show up with a list of printers.

    Guess what, the HP6980 is not on and when I try to update the list of printers, it says that windows update is not available at this time, try again later. It's like that since last week.

    It gives me the option to install from a file, but where can I get a driver for my Deskjet 6980 ARM?

    Hello

    There is currently not an ePrint application available in the App Store Windows.

    You should be able to use the driver "HP Deskjet PCL3 class driver" which is stored in the operating system WinRT.  It is a generic PCL3 driver that should work with your printers Deskjet 6980.

  • Help! HP Deskjet 6980 print is no longer in duplex

    I recently upgraded from Windows XP to Windows Vista and reinstalled the software / drivers for my Deskjet 6980.  Everything went well spent - it is printing without wire - but for some reason the automatic duplex printing function no longer works.  Even when I select the automatic duplex printing option in the printer preferences, it does not print duplex.  Is there a way to fix this?

    Thanks in advance!

    Vista can default the duplexer "not installed".  Go to the Printers folder, right-click on the Deskjet 6980, run as administrator, properties, parameters of the device and the unit installed duplex and duplex manual to disabled, apply, OK.

  • HP Deskjet 6980 and Windows 7

    My old computer was Windows XP.  I was using a HP Deskjet 6980.  Automatic duplex printing will not work with 6980 drivers, but I was able to make it work with my old Deskjet 990 drivers.

    My new computer runs on Windows 7.  Automatic duplex printing option is disabled.  The Deskjet 990 drivers are not compatible with Windows 7.  If I try to manual duplex printing, the paper feeds properly the second time through and I end up wasting a lot of paper and ink.  20 pages, I can get one or two to print correctly.

    There are drivers out there that will allow me to do automatic duplex printing?

  • print wireless HP Deskjet 6980 and Mac OS 10.6

    I can't print wireless setup for my HP Deskjet 6980 in Mac OS 10.6,

    I can't find any software update and do not have my original installation CD.

    I scoured the help pages with absolutely no information for this specific problem.

    OK, it's going to be difficult because the printer is very old and 10.6 technically impossible to set up a wireless connection for your printer.

    With the printer plugged in USB, go to System Preferences > print & fax.  Click on the printer and then click «Options & supplies»

    See if you can find the button "see the printer page.  I doubt you can, but we will try.  If this does not work, your only choices are to connect the Ethernet printer to your router or to solve your original problem of sharing USB or get a new printer.

    Back to your original problem, fixing, share the printer make sure that printer sharing is enabled on two Macs (System Preferences > sharing).  Then, we will reset the printing on the Mac problem system:

    -Sys Prefs, Print & Fax
    -Right (control) click inside the box that lists your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - This will remove ALL your printers!
    -Select the sign + to add again. Search for the printer, select it, and wait until the button 'Add' becomes available. Until it clicks.

  • HP deskjet series of 1510 does not print

    We recently mloved to la Gomera (Canary Island) and there I bought an hp deskjet printer 1510. It will not print when connected to my laptop, also a HP with Windows vista, although it is connected, is on and is the default printer. I tried everything the doctor print and scan suggested (like cutting the fire walls, check print ooler, reinstall the driver and software etc.) and everything that I found in the taking in charge of HP. still does not print. When it is connected to our other laptop, HP also but with windows 7, it works fine. The only thing that I managed to print is a diagnostic page but it gives only numbers and letters like SN = CN39a19mmp05yr 21 PG = 81 12 BY =-5 yr 22 FB = 0/0, etc.. Nog is far from help me :-(.  someone knows how to fix this?

  • HP Deskjet 6980 will not install via USB or network

    I've recently updated my PC with a new mother/case/CPU card, etc. and trying to set up my Deskjet 6980 he tries to install two separate drivers.  One is named HP Deskjet 6980 DOT4USB and the other just HP Deskjet 6980.  Dot4USB installation is complete, however the drivers for "Hp deskjet 6980" fail.  The printer indicates only in my "devices and printers" as "HP Deskjet 6980" with an icon of troubleshooting.  whenever I run troubleshoot it tells me I need to install the drivers.  He's trying to install the drivers through troubleshooting or Windows Update every time, she fails.

    I tried to uninstall all instances of the name Deskjet from my computer, turn off the printer, restarted my computer and then turn on the printer/plug again for the same results.

    I plugged my printer on the network and while my laptop has no connection/printing problem, when I try to add it as a network printer in "Devices and printers" it gives me an error message saying "unable to install.  "Double check the name of the printer and make sure that the printer is connected to the network.  I tried both options "Use the driver is installed" and "replace the driver" and both give me the cannot install message.

    Some tips on what might be the problem or how to fix?  I downloaded each item including HP Deskjet 6980 on site without success.

    Windows 7.  As mentioned, the printer works perfectly when connected to my laptop via USB or wireless connection, my PC just does not want to connect via either.

    HP Print & Scan doctor tells me that I must not get the installer of your website, however there is no installer for Deskjet 6980.  The "Printer Install Wizard" & "Hardware diagnostic utility" mean that the printer is not supported by the software.   When I plug in the printer it goes through the process of installing driver as follows:

    I tried the update through troubleshooting, Windows Update and even to get the file on the Microsoft Web site (pg no longer exists). I thought about trying to find the driver on my laptop, but I'm not sure the actual name of the file what.

    * EDIT *.

    Looks like I solved the problem myself.  I don't know why, but my printer has appeared only at random in my Uniblue DriverScanner program (it would not be displayed when I looked before).  I was able to download & install from program Driverscanner and my printer works perfectly.  A strange question, but at least it was an easy fix.

    Thank you.

  • HP Deskjet 6980 loses wired connectivity

    The printer seems to disconnect for unknown reasons. Especially when a document needs to be done before a deadline (!)

    A laptop (vista) computer is wireless (WEP2) a Netgear router and the printer is connected via an ethernet cable to the router.

    IP address of printers may be the laptop ping, but the printing status window shows "HP Deskjet 6980 Series - offline".

    I powered cycled the laptop and the printer and connected the laptop to the router with an ethernet cable for the factor "wireless" out of the loop.

    'Connect' is greyed out - I guess that means that it is connected?

    I have another laptop (vista) and it is working OK this laptop, so I think which precludes "equipment/wiring.

    The only reliable "cure", I found is to remove the printer and reinstall, and it works again - until the next time, a few days later.

    Regarding the changing from automatic to manual subnet mask, it is normal if you enter a fixed or static IP address.  If your router will allow you to reserve static IP addresses, it might be useful to set the printer in the router.  You access it the same way you got to the printer, the IP address will be printed on the router.  I chose an IP address that is a long way from my PC, the PC address 192.168.1.2, printer IP 192.168.1.100, both with 255.255.255.0 as the subnet.  Of course, you are on the right track, if your system has kept the printer OK for 4 days.  I reset my router and turned off everything several times since I made the changes and everyone is always happy.  Good luck
