Photosmart 8450: "Device Setup doesn't have all the.
HP dear Forum and Support:
My HP Photosmart 8450 fails to install on my Dell laptop. Help, please.
I have a Dell Inspiron 640 m laptop computer with Windows XP. I got the printer installed fine, but then I caught a bad virus had to restore my laptop back to the factory settings and then installed Norton Antivirus.
First, I downloaded the Driver on the HP site and connected the driver software Installation the file downloaded.
Then, during Installation, the Installation Wizard told me to connect my printer to the USB Port of my computer, I did.
Then, after a few minutes, the installation wizard told me that "Device Setup has not finished.'
Then I tried whole, this time connect my device to a different USB Port in my laptop with the same failed result. In addition, no a HP printer icon appears in the list of printers in my control panel.
A cause as possible, I can imagine would be if I have Norton Antivirus and Antivirus is blocked somehow, but I highly doubt this possibility, because then it would be a common problem with many users, like HP and Norton products are very common.

P.S. happy holidays.
OK, I gave you a thumbs up.
Here's what worked for me:
I uninstalled the printer from the "Programs" section in my control panel. Then I reinstalled the printer driver. When I did, I have connected my USB pritner when the installation wizard asked. As was happening, he said that the printer has been detected and this may take a few minutes.
Meanwhile, a message apparently not HP-software popped up because of my operating system, that says hardware is automatically detected by my computer laptop and installed automatically and give me the choice to make my default printer. Of course, rather than interfere with the HP Installation Wizard, I've just left him intact.
A few minutes later, I got the same old "Not completed" message in my installation wizard. Then I clicked on the operating system pop-up message and told to do my Pritner by default.
I think that the installation wizard might at this time asked to click Next in the installation wizard, and if that were the case, then I didn't click it. But in any case the next thing the wizard said was that the device had been installed successfully.
So it's a combination of things that led to the unit being installed successfully.

Photosmart 7510 - I want to use only black ink since I don't have all the need for a color.
Photosmart 7510 - I want to use only black ink since I mainly use this for work and don't have all the need for a color. If I have more ink, can I just replace the black and it still work? Thank you very much for any information you may have!
Hello
I did a few test last year, you can print black only master always need color ink for the printer. Black setting only as a default printer will only print black and it consumes a little over heating of the process color inks. In short, it will not be printed correctly when run out of color ink (s) or does not start at all.
Kind regards.

I would change my windows again because is working dosent good can you tell me how I can do it because I have all the vista cd
You don't say what kind of discs to have.
Here is the info on how to reinstall using a Vista DVD from Microsoft.
For all other Vista reinstall information, contact the manufacturer of your computer.
Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.
At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

I CS5.5 Master Collection and you want to transfer to a new laptop. The CS5.5 was an update for CS3 Design standard and I have all the disks and serial numbers. I just uninstall both programs a laptop and install them on the other?
You can do it, but you don't have to install cs3 in order to install your upgrade of cs5.5.
You can launch the installation of cs5.5 and you will be asked your cs5.5 serial number. Setup will ask you then select the product (in a drop-down list) calling. Select cs3 and you will be prompted for the serial number for cs3.
Enter the correct number at the right time and to proceed with the installation.
If you no longer need these programs on your old laptop, disable (help > deactivate) before uninstalling so that you can keep your two activations.

"Setup could not detect all the printers.
I've recently set up a new computer and the network. The host computer is running Vista. I have connected a Deskjet 6940 via an ethernet cable into the Linksys router and can print from the host computer.
I have a laptop which is under XP Pro, and who has a connection with the network. I downloaded the driver from HP on the laptop to try to connect with the 6940, but during the install process, I get the message "Printer not found - Setup could not detect all the printers on the network."
Firewalls on both computers is disabled.
When I type the IP address in the address of the host computer or on the portable bar, I page of the printer, including its SSID.
I tried to type the IP address in the field suitable for the installation of HP on the portable routine, however and always got the "printer not found."
Ideas? TIA
The Deskjet 6940 being on the network, we will try to add the printer manually. Here is the sequence to XP:
- Click on the button 'Start'--> Printers and fax machines.
- Under print jobs, click on "Add Printer".
- Click 'Next' in the Add Printer Wizard window.
- Select " printer local to this computer. Deselect "automatically detect and install my Plug and play printer." Click "next".
- Under Select a printer Port option, select "Create a new port" and choose "Standard TCP/IP Port" and click "Next".
- In the "Welcome to the Add Standard TCP/IP printer port Wizard" make sure that the printer is turned on and connected to the same network that your computer is connected to. click on the button "next".
- Under "Add Standard TCP/IP printer Port", enter the host name of the printer . You can also use the IP address of the printer if it is static. Click 'Next' and then click 'Finish '.
- Now, select HP in the manufacturers list, select your printer from the printer model list and click the button "next".
- If you can't find your printer, you will need to find the installation CD and use the 'Disc' option to select one of the files hp*.ini. You can also select another model of the same type HP printer.
- Add the name of print spooler and click on "next".

How to replace a bad IDE disk with a USB Flash drive system - and have all the functionality of XP Pro SP3Given a PC without hard disk...How can you use a flash drive instead?So, indeed, the USB key works as an SSD...I saw online options that gives partial functionality of the system... and an option that is more than $100 (more than the system's worth)...None of these options are acceptable in the circumstances.It is an effort to create a machine for a particular use, built from a recycled pc for which hard drive was removed and destroyed by the original owner...The criterion is that it must work just like it was a mechanical drive running xp pro sp3 with all updates, etc...Thanks for any help.
You can not install XP on a Flash as his unsupported drive. Your only two options are a traditional hard drive or Solid State Drive (SSD).

That's my XP OS. He worked before that date and a new Zune for Christmas, a couple of days. I have all the updates, etc. My Zune software starts whenever I plugged it to my computer; now all I get is the error above.
The zune turn on when connected load, and the system can't recognize not like before. After troubleshooting, I actually uninstalled the usb and the reinstalled system but said that there is a problem.
Help!Hi, Jason and thanks for your response. Unfortunately, this was not correct.
After several tests, including two restarts then stop / restart, I just gave up and let it go... and then, the next day, I retried it, and it worked! I don't really know why, but I have a feeling. While I was working with my zune by itself, I went to albums, shuffle all and then my Zune completely erased, restarted and then played as usual. I think that this reboot of my Zune has helped my system to detect. What do you think? Also, I can do the same thing somehow - do a "reboot/reset" my Zune? In any case, my Zune works perfectly, I really loved and added additional music to today and bought a warranty last night. -
