Laser HP jet 4 p using windows vista out errors in the print queue

I have a hp jet 4 p laser. I'm trying to use it on windows vista. It is attached with a usb cable to serial port. I have the printer installed and vista now sees the printer. When I submit a test page, it appears in the print queue but - mistake.

Have you installed the Vista drivers? If this isn't the case, you should do this. Bring:

HP Support & drivers - go to the site Web and download/install the drivers and utilities for your HP operating system. Be sure to choose the drivers 32 or 64-bit according to the case.

HP still supports this old large workhorse of a printer under Vista!

  • HP 1012 printer won't ADD. Windows Vista does not recognize the printer or port.

    Windows does not add 1012 HP printer.

    Although compatible with Vista: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-vista/Details.aspx?type=Hardware&p=LaserJet%201012%2015ppm%20600x600dpi%208MB%20USB&v=HP&uid=Q2461AABA&pf=0&pi=0&s=HP%20Printer%201012&os=32-bit, a free download is required (whatever that means - read the above yourself).  This is perhaps why you cannot install.  While on the HP site, get the most up-to-date drivers, firmware or software for this printer and use it for installation (which came on the drive or what you perhaps obsolete).

    I hope this helps.

  • Windows Vista 32-bit. The printer HP Deskjet 3420 (3600 series) will not work.

    Hello

    I tried to install drivers several times, and they all install. When I plug in my printer to the computer recognizes the printer, and it seems that the printer works. But as soon as I try to print a test page, it does not work. I think it may have something to do with the configuration of the printer driver. Any help will be appreciated.

  • Need to know where in the system folder of Windows Vista, I can access the printer for a shared printer drivers .inf files

    I have a printer that is attached to my system down Dell Windows XP, I want to access the floor running Windows Vista from my Sony system.  I managed networked the printer so I can see it in my Sony Windows Vista network folder.  However, when I try to access it, it gives me the following error msg:

    The server to the printer 'HP Photosmart 1215 series' doesn't have the installed printer driver.  If you want to find the right driver, click OK

    Otherwise, click Cancel and contact your network administrator or the original equipment for the printer driver manuafacturer.

    I advanced and clicked on "OK". and the system brings up a box for me to find the correct INF file to load.  I went ahead and tried the DRIVERS/WINDOWS/INF and a few other places, but has failed to find (any) of printer drivers

    Can someone tell me where I can get these?

    Download the appropriate driver from the printer manufacturer's web site.  If it contains a Setup program, run the program and when it asks you to specify the printer installation, create a local printer whose name is \\xpsystem\printer where 'xpsystem' is the charing system printer and "printer" is the name of the share.  This should create the printer.

    You can also expand the downloaded driver and try to add the printer as you did before, direct the installation to the folder containing the driver that you downloaded.

    Hi Rajazc,

    It seems that the location that the software will search in the installation file has changed or disappeared. You can follow this path that he needs? When you re-installed, did you use the same exact path? You completely uninstall before you try to reinstall? Try this: uninstall the software, do a clean boot, and then reinstall making sure that you set in a different way.

    It would be a good idea to run the System File Checker tool to see if you have corrupted files

    "How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the files on system missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7"

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

    Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally made programs, Accessories, right-click guest, and then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.
    2. Type the following command and press ENTER:
      sfc/scannow

      The sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

    If SFC detects serious flaws, you may need to perform a repair upgrade Installation or relocation complete if you don't have a Vista DVD from Microsoft.

  • FAT32 formatting for 500 GB Seagate external hard drive using Windows Vista

    How to format FAT32 file system for 500 GB Seagate external hard drive using Windows Vista?

    Hi MVRMVR,

    Windows will work generally only format a drive in FAT 32 if it has a capacity of 32GB, no more. To format in FAT32, Yes, would need to create multiple partitions. This, of course, you don't want to do.

    I have not tried to format a large drive in FAT 32 but I guess that any third-party partitioning software (Acronis, Paragon etc.) would be able to do it without any problem. Alternatively you can do it from the Windows command prompt. For more details, see the link below:
