• HP Photosmart c3180: printer software did not install

  Hello

  I recently upgraded my PC and installed a new motherboard. Now, I've had my C3180 printer for 5 years now, whenever I have installed the printer software, I have had no problem on one of my computers. The software in question is the HP all in one series to my printer.

  Now here's the problem, after setting up my new PC, I'm trying to install the printer drivers to use the scan etc. The error is the software constantly gives it's when I try to install: cannot find USB drivers and a USB device "this computer has no support USB available for this installation. I tried the program several times and he refuses to install.

  Well, here's the catch, I installed all my USB motherboard etc drivers correctly and they all work. All my USB devices, keyboard, webcam, headset all work. Now on windows 7 64-bit devices and printers, the printer is actually shown and active. I even printed the windows program help and it prints that I need to fine.

  In Device Manager in the USB printer section he calls here HP Photosmart 3100 is active and has no problem at all.

  This is why I can only conclude this is the stupid software refused to install because it can not detect my USB drivers even if my USBs are working very well and I can even print the printer to start! My new motherboard is an Asus Maximum hero 8 with all the latest drivers to installed

  Thanks for all the suggestions that I really need to use the printer to scan using the HP software

  

  Hello

  (1) run the executable (i.e. AIO_CDA_NonNet_Full_Win_WW_130_140.exe) HP installation package
  2) open Windows Explorer and type % temp % in the address bar, and then press ENTER.

  3) navigate to the extracted installation folder, it will start by 7z (e.g. 7z1234S)
  Note: If there are several of these files to find the most recent sort by "Date Modified".
  4) go to the "Setup" subdirectory in this 7z folder.
  (5) move, delete or rename the usbready.exe file which is the Intel USB System Check utility.
  6) navigate the directory tree in the 7z folder and double-click the installation executable (Setup.exe)

  You can see any difference now?

• HP Photosmart C4480 - blurry text when printing *.pdf

  Hi,

  I seem to be a common problem but can't seem to find a common solution. I have a printer [HP Photosmart C4480] who works well for ages. Now, however, seems to have problems printing pdf. As I said (or rather typed), This seems to be a common problem. In other sources on the internet, it is described as dark printed text or text that looks blurry (for example, here). It seems also the text is printed in a shade bluish the color of the font of the text itself is black. Just for the record:

  -J' restarted my computer. 3 times;

  -J' have 2 new hp original cartridge in the printer. The printer is aligned cleaned and everything;

  -L' printer is OK with other files (meaning not being not not *.pdf);

  -This isn't the files. They are ok. It's several files from several reliable sources (for example, my University) that all print sharp printers not HP. I would include a sample attachment, but I can't... O well. I'll add a link. You are here. (* Edit: link has been removed after the problem has been resolved).

  -The problem with the same printer on 5 consecutive laptops running Windows XP upwards and up to what Windows 8. All have the latest version of Adobe.

  -Adjustment of the color to print in black and white (only black and white) does not deny the problem.

  * Edit:-connected via USB.

  * Edit:-portable Test computer running Microsoft Windows 7 x 64 Home Premium (Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium
  Version 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 Build 7601).

  * Edit 2:-tried another cable USB (thanks for the suggestion Rich1!). Unfortunately, no results .

  * Edit 3:-problem solved partially. Software incompatibility between HP and Adobe. See the workaround. Only works for gray-scale printing.

  * Edit 4: Rich1 helped me to identify the problem. Seems that when printing the PDF files, the printer does not seem to use black ink and in turn simulates black by combining the primary colors (which gives all the quality of the results, where the blur). This problem also exists in Acrobat with Foxit substitution (for example).

  With sincere friendships.

  J

  I think I've solved the problem, even though it may persist in color prints.

  HP, this seems to be a widespread between the printing software and Acrobat Reader problem. I suggest that you find a more permanent solution. First mention of the problem lies in 2008 and it is widespread, but you seem to be ignorant.

  As to the question.

  This question seems to raise its ugly head after an update to Acrobat Reader. Several sources confirm this. As is the case, software HP seems to be an incompatibility with Acrobat Reader. It sucks because it is the most popular format for sharing on the internet of documents.

  As for the solution.

  1. do not use any web application to print. Save the file. Open it in Adobe Acrobat Reader;

  2. open the print menu [file > print];

  3. click [Advanced] at the top right of the screen.

  4. under color management, check that box to the left of something to the effect of "let the printer choose colors". (I have an English version of the software Acrobat Reader installed, bear with me. Press [OK];

  5. to return to the main print window, go to the menu of [Properties] in the top right of the screen. It should be next to the menu advanced;

  6. in the Properties menu, select the [color] tab. Once there, select an item to the effect of "print in grayscale". Directly under this option must be a menu drop-down. In this menu, select "use only black ink. Press [OK];

  7 print the file. As long as you print in black and white, the focus should be good.

  Hope this helps someone else! If you like my solution, give this guy there Rich1 some kudo is such that at least he had the kindness to answer and help me solve this problem.

  Thank you!

• Must restart to establish a wireless connection on all-in-one printer, HP Photosmart C3180

  
  

  • Description of the problem - unable to connect to the printer, unless you restart printer
  • -Printer HP Photosmart C3180 all-in-One Printer model
  • (Including service pack revision) operating system - Mac OS X 10.6.2
  • -Wireless connection method
  • Error - could not connect. Photosmart C6100 series (C8897C) is currently unavailable. Please check is it is on and connected, or try again later.
  • Using the latest version of the drivers for HP 2.3 Apple updates and the latest version of the bundled software HP 4.4.3 utilities.

  I was able to solve the problem by reading the comments of others and came across the solution.

  By turning on the printer press and hold keys # and 3 which resets the printer as a warm reboot. Hold the keys down until the main menu appears on the screen (it took awhile so be patient).

  Return to the Mac and remove and re-add the printer via system preferences > printer and faxes (-/ +). However, there is no need to restart the printer twice until it was added back successfully.

• hp photosmart c 3150 printer does not print text

  my hp Pavilion 150 desktop card of (windows 7 I think) does not work.  printer hp photosmart c3150 was connected to the desktop and the router.

  Because the hp desktop computer is not working properly, I cannot use the printer via the desktop, nor professional connected wifi lenovo thinkpad laptop (windows vista) or the dell laptop (windows vista). The hp desktop is broken and I disconnected the printer to the Tower line and connected via USB for lenovo thinkpad. After the failure of several attempts to print, I used the hp software troubleshooting, which directed me to download the printer driver and reinstall. I did it, plug the device into the usb port when realized. When I try to print a document in word turned off the laptop lenovo (is no longer the wifi connected to the printer, but lasts connection via USB), the printer starts on page, seems to be printing, but the page is empty.

  At some point during the realization of the driver install the message appeared that _? is not supported by windows vista.

  I downloaded the driver for wifi unrelated photosmart c3150 printer for vista 32-bit and installed, the short version, I also did the same thing for the version full... same results.

  the control panel shows the printer ready status = online... impossible to find anything to suggest this shouldn't work.

  This very well when operated printer connected to the router via the Pavilion hp 150, which had to be in place and running for other portable devices using WiFi... He has always worked in this way, fine print, etc...

  need help please, I don't know what to do and need my printer as soon as possible

  Thank you

  Hello daflo54

  The following article contains troubleshooting steps for your printer, printing blank pages. Before you install the printer on the laptops have you uninstall the printer first? Two laptop computers receive the same messages and problems.

• Cannot delete the HP Photosmart C3180 and port DOT4USB drivers

  I deleted the icon of the printer and the bestI software possible.  but I still have the DOT4USB port, but no printer icon. Ineed to remove the portand drivers. I have now an a909g hp 8500, and the new tests diagnostic shows the HP Photosmart C3180 as one of the printers on a USB port. This is not true.

  I'm a software developer, and computer repair guy and I took a class years on writing ActiveX/OLE controls, so I don't mind editing the registry and delete the files.  I need steps for pub to remove the vestigesof the c3180.  This software is a pain in the neck. easiest way to uninstallis to reinstall windows from scratch, I know, but I have a lot of valuable files.

  I don't want to miss all the pieces. the drivers are not my skills more.

  I got it by using a regedit file that looked like below.

  someone else will be different because the material of the port will be different, so you should not use this exact one.

  I suggest you rather that do [windows [logo-key indicator] r regedit [Enter]

  Search for the following text (not nessarily just a string):

  Find "HP Photosmart C31" partial text and delete the entries that you find

  Search text "DOT4USB" and delete the entries you find, but make sure that you do not delete the keys to category of port

  You can search "DOT4" and carefully remove the subentries that apply only to the C3100 series.  You probably already have these above.

  reset.  You must, because these drivers are still loaded and these inscriptions will be back unless you restart now that you have deleted entries.

  You can alsodocument them to change, copy the name of the key, then paste into notepad ++ and save it as a .reg with Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 header file

  each key listed must be separated by ablank line and begin by [- and ends by]

• Problems with PhotoSmart C3180 Mavericks 10.9.4

  I am (train) print using my Photosmart c3180 on my iMac. I use Mavericks 10.9.4. Whenever I try to print something, it prints about half the page then loses communication (or there is an error of communication). My Apple System Profiler lists the printer using the driver 4.0.4.  It's very frustrating and useless! Any suggestions?

  Thank you!

  Hi @tmac727

  I'd be happy to help you.

  We will reset the printing system, repair disk permissions, add the printer using the driver and try to start a new search.

  Reset the printing system

  1. Click on the Apple icon ( ), then click on System Preferences.
