• Photosmart 7960 installed via the USB port on the PC under Win XP Pro acting as a print server

  I have a PC running Windows XP Pro, which acts as the home network file and print server.   The Photosmart 7960 is connected to this computer via a USB cable and configured to be "shared".   When I go to "Add a printer" on another PC, in Windows 7, which is also part of the same network, I can navigate to the 7960 correct, but the installation wizard is unable to find the driver for Win 7.  I still have what in the HP see basic documents that tells me how to add this shared printer on my Win 7 PC.  Looking at the support page drivers I saw that Windows 7 already has the driver.  True, but the only way, it seems that I can get to it is to connect the printer directly to Win 7 PC via a USB cable.   Any suggestions?

  Apparently, the solution is as follows.  First connect the photosmart 7960 directly to the PC running Windows 7 via USB cable network.  It will be auto-install drivers.  Reconnect the printer to the PC under XP pro server.   From the PC running Windows 7 where you have installed the printer via USB, you can go ahead and remove the photosmart 7960 from the list of printers; This will not remove the just downloaded drivers.  Next, select Add a printer, and then select 'Add a local printer' (no network).  Select 'Create New Port' and click Next.  In the next dialog box, type the name of the host server and the name of the printer.  In my case, it's \\mainserver\HP photosmart 7960. Click Next.   In the "Install the printer driver" dialog, click "Hewlett Packard" and find the 7960 in the printer list and click Next.  I was able to successfully install the printer this way.

• driver disk software hp photosmart 7960

  I just upgraded to Windows 7 and HP does not have a complete driver for my Photosmart 7960 printer support. I can't find that my driver installation disk of anywhere and I need to get all the features (printing without margins, maintenance, etc.) installed. Anyone know where I can get one? Thank you!

  Looking at the pages in the car it appears HP decided to not fully support even Vista on this printer, not to mention Windows 7. They have even a program uninstaller to remove the software if the user upgraded from XP to Vista because the old XP software does not work on Vista. I'm sorry, but you may be out of luck if you want anything else than to the basic print functions.

• How do you get state of ink on a Photosmart 7960 running on Windows 7?

  You will need to know how check/status display of ink for my Photosmart 7960 running on a Dell XPS 17 with Windows 7.  Printer was originally on my Dell Inspiron 8600 running XP and will automatically display status of ink when I printed.

• I'm trying to locate an HP Photosmart 7960 printer installation disc. Any ideas how to do?

  Two questions...

  I have a HP Photosmart 7960 printer and we have a new computer. We cannot find the installation disc. I called HP and after about 2 hours of 'help' said they cannot support the printer more - it's too old. No download online from HP worked.

  I have TONS of ink for this printer...

  The ink cartridges are 56, 57, 58 and 59. If I can't find an installation disc, it may be interesting to my buying a printer that uses these cartridges. How would you like to know which printers are available that use these cartridges?

Win7 drivers for it, but the download page of the pilot says "a full set of features of software and the driver for Windows 7 is not available for your product.

• Maximum DPI setting missing Photosmart 7960

  I always use a 7960 Photosmart and I'm very happy with it.  However, DPI Maximum option has disappeared in the menu of options of printing resolution.  My OS is Vista 32 bit Home Premium, SP2.  My laptop is a Dell Studio 1537 and is connected to the printer by USB.  In my view, the setting may have disappeared at a time given when I updated the driver.  Please help as I'm getting back in high quality photography.

  Hello @hpu1 and welcome to the Forums of HP, I hope you enjoy your experience!

  I see that you are running in IPR issues.  I would try to help.

  I would recommend a power reset.  Unplug the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug back in the printer. Make sure that you connect the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any surge protector or power bar.

  I recommend also to download and run the HP print and Scan doctor.

  Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting operations. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

• Photosmart 7960 w / windows 8

  everything works well except that the optional paper tray that I used for years, is no longer present in the printer preferences menu.

  Is there a solution for this? Thanks in advance for your time.

  Hi ben2h,

  This older Photosmart printer has only a driver of OS available. You will want to open devices and printers, and then right-click on the printer to select Printer Preferences. There should be a tab device settings that may allow you to turn on the optional paper tray. If there is no other choice then you can upgrade to a printer more recent which is supported in 8 Win. I have provided some links that you may find interesting if you decide to upgrade your printer.

• Questions of color with photosmart 7960

  I have been using this 7960 for years with the XP operating system without any problem at all. I recently changed computers and is now using a beta version of Windows 7. The printer works fine except that I now have a blue tint to all my printed pictures. I did a printer head cleaning operation and ran a test sheet. The test sheet has not produced any yellow color, all other colors looked fine. I use Adobe Elements 7 as my photo editor and I changed my profile of Adobe RGB color in the elements and on the printer, but that made no difference. Someone has ideas like how to do about this situation? I can't find anything on the HP website that deals with this.

  If the yellow is not printing a test page this would indicate that you need a new color cartrdige.

  Kind regards

• HP Photosmart 7960 no power

  I have had this printer for a few years and now all of a sudden turns.  I checked all the plugs, reset (a minute all disconnected), tried different outlets, etc.  No work anywhere.  Before I throw the printer, you have another idea?

  Did you check with another power agreement and also with the power adapter, keep your Palm on the power adapter if you have and feel if the adapter is hot. If you have an agreement of power instead of power supply then try to replace the power supply if you have one, or you can also replace it with the monitor power cable and then do a test by connecting directly to a walloutlet, if it still does not work then the printer is dead.

• Photosmart 7960: Photosmart 7960: color printing problem print Brown instead of Red

  Instead of printing red print Brown.

  Hi @Goodindian,

  Although the issue you described is different from what the title in the following document States, the proposed solution might help: printed Images contain blanks or streaks of single color.

  I understand your Red looks more like Brown when it prints, I think that the cleaning cartridges can help. The above will help you in this. Also, please make sure that your ink cartridge ink level is adequate.

  I hope this helps. If this resolves the issue, please click Accept as Solution to identify your request as resolved. Thank you.
