My new printer does not appear in the list of printers

I bought a new HP Officejet Pro 8715 and I had great difficulty it is set up to use. It seems the method to print and scan drivers has changed dramatically since my last new printer. HP supplies over a CD with the software, but rather is supposed to happen automatically via the Apple software when I plug in the printer. This was not the case.

At this point, I have the printer (4 hours) work, but I can't get the software "Readiris' of scanning to work. Yet once again, I am told that if I just plug the printer via the USB port and turn it on, then the OS knows what software to load. In reality, he doesn't "know" or "do" something.

I tried to configure manually by going to System Preferences > Print & Scan and then by clicking on the sign more to add the printer software. This will show you a huge list of printers, but the list ends with "Officejet Pro 8660." My printer is a 8715, so there is nothing for my printer. Installation of the software for 8660 did not help to solve the problem.

Two questions:

1. why list of Apple printers does not have my printer?

2. How can I get the Apple software to see the drivers for my printer?

Thanks in advance for any help or advice!

1. If the printer is a new model and HP did not provide Apple with the driver software, Apple would not list.

2. go to the HP site to find and download the driver software.

  • Photosmart Prem C310: Printer does not appear in the list of printers - but is on the list of devices and printers

    I'm used to be able to print perfectly in any program.

    Now, I can print from Gmail - or I can print from this forum, however in Publisher or Word, or a genealogy program I use, the Photosmart is not one of the available printers listed.

    When I go to Device Manager, I can right click on all the printers I have and see a long list of options, such as set as default printer.

    But on the Photosmart, I right click and only get 4 options; create a shortcut, troubleshoot, remove the device and properties.

    I downloaded new printer drivers and went through Assistant support, rebooted, unplugged and replugged etc.

    I can't understand this one!

  • Printer and driver; When I try to add Epson Stylus SX415 he does not appear in the list of printers

    My Epson Stylus SX 415 does not want to play with my windows 7. it did before. Printers on my computer, it has a 410 SX that I can't remove for any reason any. When I try to add SX415 he does not appear in the list of printers of ideas?

    Have you tried to download and use the driver provided by Epson for this printer?

    Windows 7 will install the drivers for some printers, but not all, and in many cases, the software installed does not have full use of the features of the printer.

    Remove printers from the list in the devices and printers sometimes takes awhile, and even a re-boot.  Uninstall will fail if there are no printed documents in the print queue in Windows to be printed.  You must delete this queue first.  There is a troubleshooting printer built into Windows 7 that can help too.

  • Hello printer does not appear in the list of IOS Printer Options

    I have a home network with a router of Time Capsule.

    I connected my Cannon MX920 wireless network.

    The printer worked very well for my MacBook Air, my iMac, my Windows laptop, 10, my iPad and my iPhone.

    There are no known pending software updates to devices.

    I connected my HP OfficeJet 6500 (E709a) for the MacBook Air via USB and it works very well.

    I installed on the portable Windows 10 Hello and I can print to the printer OfficeJet @ MacBook Air laptop Windows 10 and the iMac (and of course the MacBook Air) very well.

    In Safari / Bookmarks / Hello on the MacBook Air, ONLY the Cannon printer is listed.  The OfficeJet directly attached via the USB port does NOT appear.

    My QUESTION is how can I make the printer OfficeJet @ MacBook Air appears as option in the printer Options / recent printers of dialogue so I can print to it from my IOS devices?

    This seems to be a pretty simple configuration problem, and I don't see the need to spent $ 20 on the App Store to make it work.  I see some comments along the lines of this problem, but the solutions are quite difficult to follow and seem to depend on having the printer appear in Safari / Bookmarks / Bonjour list.

    I'll appreciate any solution (or explanation as to why it isn't a).

    Hello DevGuy,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Community Support from Apple. I know how useful it can be to have all your devices on the network with a central printer, and I'd like to help offer a glimpse into what could prevent your of you using to print to your HP 6500 iOS devices.

    In order to print from a device iOS, the printer must be connected to the same Wi - Fi network and supports the Air Print feature. After some research, it seems that the 6500 HP does not support this feature directly. You may be able to find a solution based on HP in the App Store app, but this printer does not have Air Print capacity based on support documentation, that I could find at HP.

    For more information about known printing of Air and a list of compatible printers, have look at this article: About AirPrint

  • HP Officejet 4500 wireless printer does not appear on the control panel

    My HP Officejet 4500 wireless printer does not appear on the control panel.  How to fix it.  I have a laptop Toshiba and Windows 7 Home Premium OS.  Help, please.    rwillm

    Hey,.

    Thanks for the update, rwillm.  It seems that the installation of the printer can be a little messed up.  If the printer software is always installed, but simply lacks the printer, then I would advise to do a little cleaning before choosing to add the printer back.

    • Make sure that the printer is deleted from the file devices and printers
    • Click on one of the remaining printers folder
    • Select the properties of the print server at the top of the window
    • Click the tab drivers
    • Remove all drivers in this window for the Officejet 4500

    Also check in the Device Manager to verify that there is no mention of remaining of the 4500.

    • Click on the start menu
    • Right click on computer
    • Select manage in the list
    • Click Device Manager in the list of questions on the left side of the window that opens
    • Click the view at the top of the menu, and then select Show hidden devices
    • Remove all references to the 4500 in the list of devices

    After making sure of the device is gone, I recommend bike devices in the power circuit: router, computer and printer.

    * Make sure the printer has a valid IP address after switching back on and is connected to the same network as your PC before adding the printer.

    If the IP address and SSID are good for the printer, then try to add the printer with the printer software, you have installed.

    • Click on the Start Menu
    • Click on all programs
    • Open the HP folder
    • Open the folder for the series of the Officejet 4500 G510
    • Select Add a device option

    Let me know how it goes,

    What happens when you click on 'license '? If you are prompted for your user name and password to Adobe, just go ahead and enter that and you're all set.

    If asked for a serial number, it is still something the surplus from your previous installation. Try to log out and back in the desktop CC application. If it still does not respond, you may need to use the CC cleaning tool to get rid of the remaining files.

  • Paragraph GroupTitlesIX tag does not appear in the list of bookmarks PDF

    When I do a "save book as PDF' then watch list"Include paragraphs"for one of my books, the GroupTitlesIX tag does not appear in the list. If I open just the index, the GroupTitlesIX tag appears in the list and the index letters appear as bookmarks in the PDF of the index.

    In the book, if I update the index file highlighted, select Format > Document > PDF Setup, the GroupTitlesIX tag appears in the list. But if I highlight all the files in the book, or even a single file in addition to the index, the tag does not appear.

    I generate the index using add it > command Index Standard. I just tried creating a new book from scratch, using models of default FM; generated an index for the book and see the same problem.

    I use p277 FM 8.0. What Miss me?

    Thank you

    B250,

    FrameMaker is not the analysis of all the documents in a book when they offer paragraph formats to insert into a table of contents or PDF bookmarks. I seem to remember that having the format in the first file of the book is a good idea. Then make a book update before trying again.

  • Toolbar Yahoo appeared without my consent. Can't get rid of it. Does not appear in the list of Add-ons or in the list of the programs installed for uninstall. (Win7; (FFx5) Please help me remove this annoyance.)

    I was asked to update Java. I had a YAHOO toolbar I made and do not want to. I can't get rid of it. It does not appear on the list of Add-ons, not in the list of programs (for uninstall). Could not find anything with Yahoo in the name. I don't want to use the view, as he returns to the display without my consent - I want not gone permanently.

    The Yahoo uninstall instructions help call for, click on the pencil tool (which tool is not found on this toolbar). Firefox instructions say go to the list of Add-ons, but the Yahoo bar is not there. There are several modules of Java, but I don't know what they are and what happens if they are uninstalled.

    Win 7; Firefox 5.0. Yahoo toolbar worm 2.3.8.20110620112826

    Maybe he is disguised as something else. If so please tell me what you need to uninstall.

  • executable file does not appear in the list of programs

    After installation of my executable it does not appear in the list of all Windows programs. I've built a lot of executable and installers before but this is the first time I see this. The folder is created in the Program Files (x 86) directory and the program performed well when I double-click on the .exe.

    This sw was initially developed with LV10 with WinXP then moved to LV2012 with Win7 64 bit and then to LV2013 and it uses a plugin architecture (I'm still not very familiar with this).

    I also have these following questions:

    1. I don't remember so many folder created after building an exe file (see photo "filelist.png") before moving this application to LV2013, why all these dataX folders are created? (associated with the plugins?). Except for the data folder containing my ini and xml configuration files these folders all contain a single mnu file.

    2 - Why are there some records of pilot instrument included in the compilation? (Agilent, Keithley and Tek) I'm also using other equipment, and they do not appear in the construction. These problems with the build because of their tree VI live I had to either check turn debugging on or off the use of the diagram structure on these screws diagram which is certainly not the right way to do it.

    3. probably the most important, what would be a document of reference on how to create an executable and a Setup program for an application architecture plugin.

    Thank you

    Ben64

    You use LVOOP you use the NI Report Generation Toolkit, which is implemented using OBJECT oriented programming. Already this explains some of the additional folders that you see.

    Other components are of course part of lvlibp (packed project library) and where it will not integrate the EXE itself. Also their dependencies... which may explain support directories (data1, data2,...).

    Referring to other settings, the log file does not help much. So we can not tell you why the installation program does not create a program shortcut in "start > programs". If you check the "shortcuts", you should be able to see if there is a routine in the Setup to create such a link or not. If the parameter is there, but the installation fails to create, it can be connected to the user rights that you use to run the installer...

  • KB2728973 does not appear in the list, add / remove programs

    Hi, I am using Windows XP Media Center Edition with service pack 3 is installed, and KB2728973 is displayed as being installed on the Microsoft update site, but KB2728973 does not appear in the list, add / remove programs. The rest of July for Windows XP updates appear as being installed on the two site update of Microsoft and adding list / remove programs, it seems strange that KB2728973 does not work. It is important that KB2728973 does not appear in the list of add / remove programs? or do I need to do more to install it? I also tried to manually install the KB2728973, but again, he did not appear in the list Add / Remove programs. I understand that there is a position similar to mine, but I read it, and I realized that the question of the poster was a bit different from mine. I also wanted to take the time to mention that the automatic updates of Windows listed KB2728973 as being installed successfully, but it always seems strange that KB2728973 does not appear in the list, add / remove programs. I also checked in C:\WINDOWS, and there wasn't any folder $NtUninstall to KB2728973. Oh, and Yes, I have "Show updates" checked in Add / Remove programs.   Contribution to this issue would be greatly appreciated.

    It is normal that some updates to not appear in the list of add / remove programs in the control panel for various reasons, but in this case, it will update the entries in the untrusted certificates store then to see if it is installed, you can check if the newly revoked certificates are listed.

    Here is a link to a page that explains the changes he brings (the certificates that have been revoked):

    [url] http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/advisory/2728973 [url]

    Scroll down to the section that has the right:

    How can [B] after you apply the update, I check the certificates in the Microsoft Untrusted Certificates Store? [/ B]

    If you have no events in Event Viewer, you can open IE and click on Internet Options - Content tab - then in the Middle under "Certificates" click on "Certificates" and then click on the arrow to scroll to the right and click the "Untrusted publishers" tab.  You should see all those listed in the MS article here.

    It also creates this key in the registry:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software \Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Windows\ {C3C986D6-06B1-43BF-90DD-BE30756C00DE}

    where it lists what Windows Update of roots revoked.
