I need to get a new laptop as my only current becomes slow and unresponsive, so I thought I'd do a Microsoft Surface tablet when they become available. I only bought my printer a couple of months, and it would really be a guy, if it was not compatible with the Surface.
Also, I downloaded the Windows 8 Preview of consumers, and in trying to connect my printer, it wouldn't install because it did not support the operating system, telling me to make sure I was using XP or Win 7. After a few weeks, I returned to windows 7. Does this mean that my printer will not work with any version of Windows 8, either on a tablet or PC?I thank in advance.HP alone are responsible for the support of pilot and he will be at their discretion. If it is a very recent model, HP will probably out drivers more or less at the same time as Windows 8 in fact for the shelves of stores...

Then, he goes in the wizard and asks the printer... It does not appear in the list, and I try to go in the C\drivers\folder. (ect.) where the new download is installed. Always get the .inf file cannot find... I still see that the printer in the network-it just keeps giving me the error...

My iPhone 6 will not communicate with my Mazda 3
Can I connect my iPhone SE my Mazda 3 SP25 communication, but it will not allow my sms or emails out as he used to do with my android phone. I followed suggestions for the activation of notifications via the Bluetooth settings, and while the SMS function is now not grayed out it will not update the sms as it should?
It is a huge problem because I just bought the changing iPhone to Android?
I hope it is going to be a change of software to solve this problem, because it is quite common?
Please notify
Kay has soon
Hi kayfrommelbourne!
I see that the functions of your iPhone work properly with your Mazda. I know it's important to have these features work properly, and I'm happy to help you. Don't forget to contact Mazda as well, to see if they have an available firmware update to resolve compatibility issues.

Photosmart C7280 C5582A work through a MacBook via a Mac (OS 10.5.7) wireless router was working fine last week. Today when I tried to print, the printer was stuck in the "printing page 37%. When I checked the Print Manager, the printer was "slowed" and since I had a lot of trouble with this printer connection before losing, I did what HP told me the last time which was to remove the printer and then recharge it. Except that this time, once the printer has been deleted, he could not find the printer even after I restarted the wizard and reinstated the SSID and WPA many times. I have reset the printer and the router by turning off and disconnect power provided, but he still had the same problem. When I ran the diagnosis, he told me: 'Pass on Radio, Radio work on failure, not plugged cable Ethernet-Pass' the rest of diagnosis is "not run" and other data on diagnostic tests are the Mac addess. The Diagnostic says the "wireless radio does not work. Contact HP support. Unfortunately, it's evening Sat and HP support is closed. Any help or is this printer dead? (I spent a fortune on ink cartridges)
It is indeed a hardware problem then. I'm sorry.
I always believe that repair costs would be better put towards buying a new printer.
However, there may be options that I'm not aware where do not have access to. This document has some support listed options.
However, I recommend you contact HP support at the 1-800-474-6836 (to the United States and Canada). Phone support can provide that more than an estimate on the repair or replacement of the printer with HP and you could compare this with the cost of a new printer.
A new printer is under warranty and most likely to be an improvement on an older printer.

Lexmark X 5495 all-in-One Printer will not communicate with Acer running Windows 7
I have an Acer with Windows 7 installed, allowing no communication with my Lexmark X 5495. The Lexmark works very well and I was able to copy when you use a laptop with Vista installed. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, fixation with recommended updates and it still has a communication problem. I also got a new usb cable which was obviously not the problem.

System worked well until I upgraded to Windows 10. Have uninstalled and reinstalled the software of the printer without success. My printers are connected to the PC, portable usb wireless but problem occurs on both. Using the Clipboard to MS Word 2007, error indicates communication problems and suggest the firewall settings might be the problem. Went from wirewall without success. Printers manually scan ok. I will be very grateful to solve this problem.
Thank you
