  I can't install the printer driver for my printer lexmark 2300 on the my new HP laptop with windows 8.  I have the lexmark installation cd.

  Hello

  Probably the CD was born before Windows 8 is why he knows nothing about this product "nice". Please visit the following site. Hope that your printer is still the list:

  If so, you can download driver from here, it is a product of Lexmark.

• Should I install a printer driver 32-bit on a 64 operating system?

  I have a wireless HP Officejet 6700e printer.  It is used by 2 computers.  The operating systems on the computers are as follows:

  1 - HP Pavilion laptop computer using Windows 8.1, 64 bit.

  2 - HP computer Pavilion laptop with Windows 7 Pro 64 bit.

  I noticed there are TWO 32-bit and 64-bit of the printer drivers for Windows 7 and Windows 8 and 8.1.

  I have 2 questions:

  First of all, given that two computers use 64-bit operating systems, shouldn't I install the 64 bit print driver?

  Second, is there an advantage to install the printer driver 32-bit on a 64-bit operating system?

  Thank you, Terry

  Install the driver that corresponds to the operating system and type of bits (32-bit or 64-bit) that is installed on each PC.

  Second, is there an advantage to install the printer driver 32-bit on a 64-bit operating system? There are no advantage at all. It would actually be a bad practice, unless the printer driver is compatible with both types of bit.

• I have can´t install any printer driver

  I am having a problem when I try to install the Brother printer driver 8890 dw and displays the error message "WINDOWS COULD NOT INSTALL the PRINTER DRIVER in KERNEL MODE", this happens for any driver I try to install, I checked and the printer is compatible with windows 7 on my other computer works normally.

  Hi Lucas,.

  We will analyze and identify the cause of the problem.

  Some of the kernel-mode drivers are not supported in Windows 7, because kernel-mode drivers could allow Remote Code execution.

  In addition, when a kernel mode driver is corrupted, it blocks the entire system as opposed to the user-mode drivers. Please see the link below for more information

• I'm unable to install the printer driver for HP OfficeJet G55xi

  I am trying to install the printer driver for HP OfficeJet G55xi.

  When I went to the HP site, it said to install Windows 7 operating system printer driver, by plugging the printer on my Windows 7 computer using a USB cable.  I did, but it was not installed.

  I also need to install the HP Director software.

  I had a computer technician to connect remotely to my computer to install the printer.  He had to install additional tools that are available on the same site where I tried to install the printer driver.  I don't know how he did, but I watched it.  Anyway, he managed to install additional tools, which resulted in the printer being installed correctly.

  It's a pity that the site where I download the printer driver does not provide adequate instructions for how to do this.  I guess the solution is hiring a computer technician to do it for you.

• error 0X800f0214 when you install the printer driver

  When you install a printer driver (network), an error message appears saying that the action could not be completed - error 0X800f0214. The printer is shared and my firewall is set to off. I have absolutely no idea on what to do and would like to get advice and INFO.

  Marc DS,
  It would be useful to have a bit more information, such as the make and model of the printer, what version of Vista you are running and what type of network - wired or wireless (or both), if there are other non-Vista on the network computers, etc.  You get the error message corresponds to "the specified path does not contain any applicable device INFs" which means basically the location where the OS is looking for the driver file does contain a valid driver file.  There could be several reasons for this, but without knowing the configuration of network and printer, it's hard to identify.  Make sure that the driver is one that is suitable for this printer model and your version of Vista and make sure that the path (c:\ - or other) is correct and that the location of the driver file is shared.  I hope this helps.  Please post back with more information if you still need help.

  Thank you, Gloria
