HP Laserjet 4 MP: HP Laserjet 4 MP - just switched to Windows 10 - cannot print

Hi - I used my Laserjet without any problems on Windows 7 but cannot print now that I went to 10 Windows.   The Laserjet 4 MP is listed on the page of the driver for Windows 10 HP, but the directions for upgrading the driver doesn't seem to work or there is something that I'm not enter.

In "Devices and printers", my printer shows already that it is selected with the green check mark.  When I go to "Add a printer", it does not find the printer, even when you use the option 'my printer's oldest  So I went the next step, try using the IP address. Print my printer Config pages to try to find the ip address/port, but nothing seems to match them.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

I went through all the steps of the Windows Update, found on pilots of widows 10 for Laserjet page mentioned above, but this time, instead of choosing the LPT 1 port, I chose the USB virtual port (I remembered reading on that port for an alternative online), and it worked!  (LPT 1 was probably active before a few years ago, I bought a USB connector for the cable to the printer)

  • Windows 7 cannot print on the HP LaserJet 5 p printer

    I spent about 5-6 hours on this and am pulling my hair out...

    I have a new computer HP w / W7 Home Premium 64-bit.  And I connect to my old LaserJet 5 p via a line parallel to the printer, to a man, 25-pin (DB25), which is connected a parallel cable DB25 female that has a USB port on the other end. USB is connected to the port on the new computer.   The peripheral area is listed as only an "unspecified unknown device."

    I started with W7 canned programs add a printer, setting up devices, download the drivers. Updates to the driver.  When the test print did nothing, so I went on troubleshooting.  So, which went nowhere...

    Then I went to HP, looked through many sites of help Articles/community and finally used their technical support for BOTH the new computer area (had me re-doing the preserved parts, download the drivers through zone devices, once again, and when have not (yet), they suggested I call their "Commercial LaserJet" technician who said...) "It is no longer supported." And if the driver that you downloaded does not work, it is not MS problem, our.  Contact with them. "(Possibly), brings me here.

    I went through the MS canned his fix and downloaded manually from the site of HP (as opposed to automatic download/updates devices), only to get a message... "Windows has encountered a problem installing the driver... error occurred during the installation, because it is not digitally signed or not signed it."  Contact your hardware vendor (IE HP, which does not support)

    Well, you get the picture... I work a pretzel here... MS wrote it's HP, HP says it's Ms... and all I want is to use my printer who worked two weeks ago on my old Compaq!

    Therefore, there is an index HP I found that looks like I might be closer to the problem that said .doc, find an interface IEEE 1284 in your devices and make sure there is no error code.  So, I found IEEE 1394 or something like that (I'm not there now).  BUT no IEEE 1284. Let the only error codes!

    So, I came in contact with the service of HP, and how IEEE 1284 it there instead.  They said they do not know, and it's a problem of Ms.

    So, to dig a little deeper, I found in 'Device Manager' I might add an IEEE 1284 printer... BUT slide it towards the bottom of the list did not have the 5 p. Close, but so far and nothing to update, as in the other area of the device...

    So, I'm pretty frustrated that a HP printer cannot work on a HP computer, even after the download a driver of HP. This is 1284 IEEEE something you can put in place?

    Clues on how to solve this problem would be very, very, very appreciated!

    Thank you

  • HP laserjet 1300: after updated W10 at another level cannot print locally on connected LaserJet 1300 preinstalled

    Recencly upgraded to Windows 10 year old PC.  The printer, usb, is a HP Laserjet 1300 and the upgrade found a driver and local printing works very well.  I have a home network that an old XP pc is connected to and used the 1300 without problem.  Upgrading to W10 came from W8.1 and whatever the driver he had allowed things to work.  On the XP poster print spooler and the error now.  HP Print and Scan Doctor run on the W10 pc indicates bad port, but it cannot be changed.   The port on the pc W10 is DOT4_001.  Doctor print run on the XP indicates that the printer is indeed available, but printing fails.  The W10 pc is W10 home so I can do the print management service to see what real driver has been installed.   The print doctor also pointed out that the full usb support is not installed.  I don't know what it is and clicking on get the software takes me to the center of hp supporot.

    I would appreciate anyones ideas on how to solve this problem.

    I got the printer work from XP to pc W10.

    The upgrade of the W10 has not created a home network as what was there in W8.1.  I had created and made there several days that the residential group names are the same, etc.  Even without the network in place, worked a ping from one to the other.

    I had old information to work for nearly 30 years as a programmer for fortune 500 company system and that he was referring to XP and more recent Windows system, demanding that internal guest account is active.

    W10 upgrade is not the active guest account.  I lit with a guest net user / activate: Yes and I tried printing and the bingo it worked!

  • My hp LaserJet 1022nw fails to analyze the download of the printer driver after that macOS Sierra upgraded.

    After switching to macOS Sierra, my printer (hp LaserJet 1022nw) WiFi does not print work orders, even if the printer seems to be to receive the order of work and how to complete it in the work queue.  Connect the printer to my MacBook Pro via USB, I am able to print without problem.  Other computers on the network continue to be able to print wireless.  When I connect via USB and try to scan a updated driver, download cause analysis a software fault message.  Any ideas on how I could proceed to continue to connect and use my printer wireless with the new OS?  The 1022nw is detectable as a printer available (wi - fi) and can normally be added to the list of printers, but doesn't have the print queue even thought that they seem to have been dealt with, and then disappear from the queue.

    Open System Preferences > Printers and Scanners and select the print tab.

    Then the right or control click on the printer on the left then click: reset the printing system

  • LaserJet 1018 will not work on windows 7

    I have a HP Laserjet 1018 which works fine on Windows Vista 64 - bit.  I just built a new PC and put Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit on it.  The drivers on the HP support site will not work.  When I try to print something, it is sent to the printer and disappears.  I interrupt printing that document actually get sent to the printer and it appears.  As soon as I have some Nations United-pause the printer, the document disappears, but nothing prints.  Normally, when something is sent to the printer, the "information" LED yellow lights up momentarily and prints the document.  The led does not at all.  I tried new cables, uninstalling and reinstalling etc.  Nothing works.  Just to be sure this isn't a printing problem general, I connected a Laserjet 1020 on the new machine and it works fine.  However, it is my printer to work and I can't leave it on the new computer, which is a personal computer for my home.  It worked to identify that my copy of Windows 7 allows you to print, but is not a long-term solution.  Help?

    Hello

    Thanks for the post.  On this one, I have some ideas.  I pasted the links below.  One is for the driver Win7/64 page and the print diagnostic utility.  I would certainly recommend the utility to narrow down the issue.  The other is a related document in queue which contains excellent information.  Good luck!

  • HP Color LaserJet Pro M176n can take care of Terminal Server print?

    Hi all

    Because my HP P1102 printer cannot print RDP, so I decided to buy a new printer for the printing of the server terminal server. I am currently using Windows 7 64 bit and the terminal server of my company is can I 2008 Server 64 bit.

    Someone know if HP Color LaserJet Pro M176n support RDP printing needs? If not, please would you advise another model of the printer for the printing of the server terminal server thank you.

    Kind regards

    Lapson

    Don't worry about the model of the printer when you print from.  Is the printer driver which needs to understand where the print job is coming so that he can pass the print stream to the printer.  If the printer driver is not allowed to communicate between the server and your computer, then you must correct this problem first.

    Printing from a Server Terminal Server is normally something that needs to be configured when printing to a USB cable.  Your RDP client has its enabled print transfer function which allows him to pass the objects on your printer to your personal computer on the server.  Without the correct feature is enabled, you will not be able to print with any printer USB model.  Check with your system administrators to see if they can enable redirection of printer for you.

    Otherwise, you will need to find a way to install your printer on the network.  This can be difficult if you are telecommuting from a personal network printer does not exist on the corporate network.  It's less that you can get your company to install a router with a VPN feature on it.  In this way, you can connect multiple personal devices on the corporate network.  However, your network admins should be aware that you eat additional IP addresses on their network and that he can't ask you to do it at all.

    Otherwise print on a network currently on the network printer should be child's play.  All what you need to do is install a UPD on the server and that it points to the IP address of your network printer desired.  The server will have no problems to send jobs to the printer from here.

  • LaserJet Pro M177 MFP: HP LaserJet MFP M177fw Pro no widget Scan on the printer

    My newly purchased printer HP LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw don't have a widget to Scan on the printer screen. So, I can't scan and send it to email directly, without having to turn on a computer.

    Can you please help me, thanks.

    Herza

    Hi @Herza,

    I see by your post that you would like to know how to scan from the control panel of the printer to send. I would like to help you today. Please select "Acceptable Solution", if these measures help to solve this problem. Thank you.

    This model is not the function of scan from the control panel. You must use the HP scanner on a computer to scan software.

    This document provides the steps for scanning on Windows 7. HP LaserJet multifunction printers - how to scan (Windows 7). You can use the HP scanning software to scan a document and then send it to the email.

    But you can install an APP on the printer itself called "Scan to Email".

    Once you register with www.hpconnect.com, you can add the APP.

    Click on add a device under the devices tab.

    Put in the claim code you printed to register and add the printer.

    Click the Services tab, then click on the sign - on the right side.

    Select your printer from the drop-down list.

    Then scroll to the application called "Scan to Email".

    Click on add to my printable cards.

    Now you should have an icon on the screen of the printer under APPS, called "Scan to Email".

    I hope this helps. If you appreciate my efforts, please click on the "Thumbs up" button below. Thank you.

  • HP LaserJet P1102 cannot print both sides of the paper

    I updated my Windows 8 Windows 8.1 and now I can't print both sides of the paper.

    In my old Windows 8 my printer HP LaserJet P1102 printed the odd sides of the document, then a pop-up window appears and when I click on the 'next' botton and submit the documents to the printer printed the sides of the document. After that the Windows update in the context menu does not appear, so the printer simply prints the odd sides and then nothing happens (just the red flashing on the printer).

    I tried to update the driver (downloaded from your site), but nothing has changed.

    I hope that you can add some useful tips and I can solve this huge problem.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    I understand that you can print is more on both sides.

    When the light flashes try and open and close the lid to see if continues to print.

    (there is no button for the printer but which will resume print jobs)

    I would do a complete uninstall and reinstall the printer software to see if that makes a difference.
    You can download the drivers from this url.
