When I'm about to print something and the preferences window appears it displays my printer being designated as "copy1". Although my printer functions, I fear that it may affect the overall performance of my PC. This problem affect the speed of my computer? My computer model is the HP Pavilionp2-1122 desktop PC. When I bought my printer several years ago, I've been using another computer with Vista home Premium. It came with the installation diskettes. Apparently with my current computer is not required, in my view.

Hello Jason, aka @wingnut34 , I hope you do well

Normally when you see more than one copy of the printer driver, the driver has installed more than once. Sometimes you can have two copies and one copy as the USB connection and the other a network connection, and it's normal. Having multiple copies will not slow down the computer, so I don't personally see a problem in addition to a. If you wish, you can go to your folder devices and printers and delete the copy that you use, if you know, the one you use for some.

I hope this help you, have a great Thursday

  • HP 1315xi all in one will not print.

    Help, please.

    Hello althor1170

    It seems to be a problem with the computer and the printer communicate with each other. Have you tried another USB cable or port? Have you tried setting the printer wireless or network? If he works on the network, then the problem is with the USB cable or port. You are using a USB hub?

  • My Officejet 6500 E709 all in one will not print black.

    My HP Officejet 6500 E709n all-in-one will not print black.   All other colors work very well.  Have you tried what follows - new black cartridge installed, ran the print heads clean utility, made sure the wind was compatible black ink cartridge, turned printer off and restarted.  Print tests still not print black - other colors and images to print, but not text black or shades of black in images.  Any suggestions on how to fix or what needs to be repaired?  Thank you.

    Hi jim: I just had the same problem a few minutes ago. After having gone through all the troubleshooting steps, I realized it was all just a bad cartridge. The PIN on the printer heads were not reading the new cartridge, so nothing in black print could be printed. I installed a new black cartridge and I could resume my printing projects. I then contacted the HP store directly to report the faulty cartridge while they could send me a new, that I won't be out of pocket for a cartridge I bought directly from them.

    Hope this helps you with your problem.

  • My HP Photosmart C5180 all-in-one will not print text correctly in black, color print very well.

    My HP Photosmart C5180 all-in-One does not print black without be eliminated text or streaks in the text. Will print fine text color.

    Have tried all the "patches" you list and much more. The printer prints fine on my old PC Windows XP and worked fine on my

    new PC using Windows 7 until recently.

    Please don't tell me to... Reinstall, download the new driver, install the new cartridge, clean align the print heads, different paper or go to 'solutions '... Etc... Etc.  I HAVE ALREADY BEEN THERE AND DONE THAT!

    Everything you "patches" end with 'the unit of service... " WHAT IN THE WORLD WHAT THAT MEANS!

    This has been a nice printer for more than 5 years, but is somewhat glitch spoil me when using the BLACK INK?

    Gordon,

    Thanks for the reply, expecting not one, but what you say is all that we need to buy another printer if we did all the "fixes", etc... etc. you know that take a printer to a repair shop will cost more

    then buy a new one.

    It was stupid of saying me to check on the warraty of HP page when I already told you that the unit is 5 years old.

    But don't thank you for the reply... even if it was a joke!

    I understand that when you print from your Windows Vista-based computer to your HP Officejet 5742 e-all-in-one printer the screen 'Fax' is popping up and the incorrect paper tray / support is selected. I would like to help you today to address these issues. If the "Send faxes" window appears only when you print to a specific program, there is probably a setting must be adjusted under this specific programme. If this is the case, what program are you a victim of problems when printing?  If the 'Send of Fax' window is popping up under all programs that you print from your computer, it is likely that the wrong printer is selected as the default printer in the printers and devices window. Can I please you follow the steps below to fix this problem.

    Set the default printer:

    1. Click on the Start menu
    2. Select the devices and printers or Printers (you may need to access it via Control Panel)
    3. Under the Printers folder, locate your HP Officejet 5742 e-all-in-one. This printer should display a green check mark above to indicate that it is the default printer.
    4. If your Fax-HP Officejet 5742 e-all-in-one shows like check mark on this subject, please right click on HP Officejet 5742 e-all-in-one (printer) and left click on "default".

    Once the correct printer has been confirmed as the default printer please test print to confirm that the 'Fax' problem is solved.

    Once solve us the problem of Fax, we will be able to adjust your print settings to confirm that your printer is configured to print on the correct paper and with appropriate support tray.

    How to check the paper tray settings:

    1. Click on the Start menu
    2. Select the devices and printers or Printers (you may need to access it via Control Panel)
    3. Under the Printers folder, locate your HP Officejet 5742 e-all-in-one
    4. Right click on the HP Officejet
    5. Left click on Printing Preferences
    6. On the paper/quality tab, make sure that the Paper Source is set to main tray
    7. Also, ensure that the media is set on plain white paper (if that's what you print on)
    8. Click apply and OK
    9. Close the Printers folder
    10. Try to print a document to confirm that your HP Officejet prints from the correct tray.

    Please reply to this message with the result of your troubleshooting. I can't wait to hear strings attached good luck!

  • HP C4280 all-in-One will not print photos on any HP photo paper

    HP C4280 all-in-One will not print color or B & W photos on photo paper.  Color and B & W photos on plain paper prints.  It is used to print normally on all documents.  No change, I am aware of cause this malfunction.  Any suggestions?

    Open your printers folder and right-click on the printer and review the printing preferences. Set the media media photo here and in the application you are printing from. When you say that it will not be printed on photographic support what do you mean... the page is white? the quality is bad?

  • Photosmart premium 3-all-in-one does not print black ink

    My C310 series 3-all-in-one hp photosmart print no black ink on the page.  The cartridge is new, and all ink cartridges are full.  The printer is 3 years, just one month out of warranty.  I downloaded all the updates, I'm sure and went to the website of hp troubleshooting page.  I followed all directions, twice and still no black printing.  Please help, I don't want to buy a new printer!

    Under Tools, I see only "Clean cartridges" not "clean print head."

    When I chose "Clean cartridges" twice, black ink printed!  Hooray! Once I have this post, hopefully get back to the page to say the problem is "solved"!

    Oh, while I have you on the line, while the cartridges were being cleaned, I got a message saying that I had to download the latest hp drivers, because those I have is not compatible with this version of Windows.  However, I download the latest drivers for 8.1 from your web site when I had a terrible paper jam.  After that I downloaded the latest drivers, this problem has been resolved.  But, given that I get this message re incompatibility, I need to re-download?  It was only a couple of weeks (up to three) that I downloaded the drivers.

    Thank you once again!

    As you have noticed one solution is to run IE9 in 32-bit mode. You can also try running the 64-bit version of IE9 as administrator to work around this problem.

  • HP Deskjet 2540 All In One: Unable to print color?

    I have a Deskjet 2540 brand new all-in-One. Printer is delivered without any instruction manual. How to print color? I hit 'print' of my document and it comes out in black and white. When I type on the printer, the 'color' button, it draws just a piece of paper through the unit and nothing is displayed at all. I do not understand this crazy thing. My old printer didn't need me to tell it to print color or black and white, that he knew what was coming through the system. I'm about to make this thing.

    Thanks, actually it would print test print color, just not when I tried to get a print document in color. new printer, new cartridges. Change my selection of the printer of HP Deskjet 2540 2540 Deskjet series just seemed to settle, I don't know why. I just mention it here in case other Mac users have the same problem.
