  • HP1510 0 x 00000709 can not set as the default printer

    I installed my new HP1510 printer on computer with Windows 7, but I can not set as default in Control Panel printer, get error message 0 x 00000709. This means I can't print a PDF file as my previous printer, which I uninstalled it, is always shown as default in Adobe Reader. I can print emails ok. Please help as I bought the computer to print a PDF file!

    Hello lanto17,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you cannot set the default printer and are experience PDF problems. Please, try the following steps to answer all your questions:

    Click Start, type Regedit in the search bar. Right-click on it and choose "Run as Administrator". Now, find the following key:

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows

    You will need to give this key all permissions. To do this:

    (a) right click on the key that you need to change and/or delete. Click on "permissions...". »

    (b) click on 'Add' in the window that appears.

    (c) there will be an empty box under "enter the names of the objects to select. Type "Administrator" (without the quotes), then click on "check names".

    (d) an administrator name appears, click 'Ok' when it does.

    (e) you should be able to select the profile (click) the administrator under "group or user names. Once you click on it, click on "Advanced".

    (f) click the 'owner '.

    (g) click on the Administrator profile, then put the checkmark in "replace the owner of subcontainers and objects".

    (h) return to the "Permissions" tab, then make sure the Administrator profile is selected.

    (i) in the "Permissions" tab, put a check in each box available. Boxes will probably accompany "Include the permissions that can be inherited from the parent to this object" and "replace all permissions of child object with permissions inheritable of this object.

    (j) then click on 'change '. Put a mark chark in "Full control" under allow. Click Ok. Now click on apply (you may receive a message of Security window, simply click 'Yes'), and then click Ok.

    (k) out of the registry, and then restart the computer.

    The last step is to restart the print spooler. To do this, type services.msc in the search bar. Right-click on it and choose "Run as Administrator". Find print spooler and stop it, then start it.

    Now try to set the default printer like PDF files and printing. Let me know what happens. Thank you!

    Have a wonderful day!

  • How can I PERMANENTLY change the default printer to Adobe PDF files using my physical printer instead of SIMPLY printing a pdf in a new PDF file?

    Whenever I restart Adobe Reader DC default printer is automatically reset to print any PDF file to the "print to PDF file" as the default printer.  How can I change the "default printer" always default to be my physical default printer, instead of "print of PDF?»»»

    PRINTING a document which is already a pdf file to a pdf file is absolutely ridiculous and stupid for the following reasons:

    1. If you want to save a document that is already a pdf in different PDF file, you can use the function "Save as" in the file menu.
    2. If the user select "Print" to PRINT a file they ther NOT try to SAVE a file.  (We'll give credit to the average user to understand the difference between PRINTING and SAVING of a document).
    3. Most of the users do not need to duplicate the storage of a document on their drives to computer
    4. Users of mobile devices, by the fact that they have already downloaded the PDF file have already used storage space of EXTREMELY valuable and LIMITED memory with the download of origin and most certainly so NOT to use more than this space such a resource limited printing!

    As an engineer, hardware and software for the past 40 + years to really understand the value of making easy allow the end user to change the configuration of something as simple as the setting for the default printing device to use!

    For the record, I searched the online help as well as the forum Adobe Reader community for a thread that explains how to change the printer by default so that whenever I starts the Adobe service it will automatically use the printer default physical connected to my computer to "PRINT" any PDF document.  If I missed something that deals with this problem please point me about it, if no such band rolling exists, then please tell me before making this change.

    Thank you for your help in this matter!

    Sincerely,

    Larry A. Coates

  • How is to send the native port of the printer command, when the printer is set as the default printer?

    I installed on a Windows XP printer and set it as default printer.

    I also have the manual provided by the manufacturer of printers, which defines the

    commands that can be sent over the serial port, then the status of the printer

    is extracted.

    Thus, for example, by sending an order consisted of 3 bytes: 34,56,78 to the printer (COM5) COM port

    I can get an answer advising me on the State of the printer.

    However, when you send this command to COM5, I get the following exception:

    "The given port name does not start with COM/com or is not resolved to a valid serial port. Parameter name: portName. »

    for which the printer vendor insisted on request microsoft support center.

    The port name of the printer is properly set to the correct a (COM5).

    Any ideas?

  • Canon MG5450 cannot be set as the default printer, error 0 x 00000709, please help!

    Hello MS community.

    I'm lost, I tried several things to solve this problem, but could not succeed.
    My system is:
    Windows 7 Home Premium SP1, stable and works well with a score of 5.9
    My printer has been installed and deleted 3 times already and I tried both set up as a network printer or a USB connected. At the moment I installed it as a USB, but this will not let me install the default printer.
    First the printer is accessible and print successfully from Word, ACDSee and some other applications but is not recognized by Adobe such as Photoshop & Acrobat products and does not Excel print. I know that this error has been discussed in several other threads, but yet I could not find a solution that worked.
    I tried to repair the registry as following the instructions here about something else:

    (a) click Start.
    (b) type regedit in start search and press enter.
    (c) access the site mentioned below.

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows

    (d) in the right column, you will find key device, change the value of your printer name.
    (e) it is for example in the format: "HP LaserJet 4250 PCL6, winspool, Ne03:

    (f) right click on the value and click Rename, replace with the name of your printer.

    When I try to change the key it doesn't let me, even if I ran regedit as an administrator. It is said:

    Cannot change the device: error writing to the new content value. I wanted to put: series of Canon MG5450 printer, winspool, draw:

    even if in the example, she said winspool, Ne03. I thought I could leave I had in default.

    i also see another key which is:

    Load REG_SZ C:\Users\-(my user name here)-\LOCALS~1\Temp\mshikra.bat

    This also I do not know what because if I go to this folder this .bat file is not present.

    I also tried this tool:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/printing_problems/

    and when he said will analyze it: series of Canon MG5400 printer is not the default printer, and then I clicked on fix it and id not said, not successful.

    Now I don't know what else to do.

    The only true left to try perhaps would be to reset all the settings of the printer (the printer connects to the home network with the wifi password) may disable the wifi wireless option, if possible. Switch it off and remove all the entries of the printer and try again to install it, but then perhaps on the administrator account.

    ideas? suggestions?

  • Office 2010 does not display in the list of programs that can be set as the default value in Windows 7

    I have Office 2010 Home and Student installed on my Pavilion p6367 c - b, which is under W7 Home Premium.

    If I open Word or Excel and then use the open function to open a file, the file opens without any problem.  However, when I try to open a document or a spreadsheet by clicking on it directly (for example, in windows Explorer or a shortcut to this file), I get a message that says: there is no program associated with this file type and "create an association in the default program control panel.

    Unfortunately, when I go on this Panel, Office is not shown as one of the programs that I choose and I see nothing to add.  I know I must be missing something but...

    I hope someone can help me!

    Thank you.

    Hi, once again, Rick:

    I played a bit with change the types of files on a Vista computer, I was working on that. I thought I had to use WinZip to open a file that had no association.

    When I went to the list of available programs that is given to me, WinZip was not an option to choose. If it sounds the same problem you are having. You access the list to select an Office application to open a file and it is not among the list of available programs.

    I thought it was weird, so I played a little bit more. If you go on the left side of the box, you should have options to look for other places, so I went to computer > CProgam files and then I scrolled down and found in WinZip. Then, I open the WinZip program menu and select the executable file to open the file.  It worked (well, he gave me WinZip as default program to open the file, but the file does not open. It must have been corrupted or something).

    Then, give that a try. I am now back on the XP computer and do not have access to the specifics. But the procedure for file association for Vista is the same as W7. I write from memory of what I did last night.

  • Cannot be set as the default printer Officejet 4500

    I installed a printer wireless Officejet 4500 on Windows XP and it works fine. On a Windows 7 computer that is connected to the wireless network I "added" the OJ4500 that has been properly installed. Although it appears in the "Printers and faxes" window it can be defined as printer by default and does not appear in the list of printers, when printing. I downloaded and installed the drivers from HP, but still I am unable to access the printer under Windows 7.

    Download and install the drivers from the HP website solved the problem on the Windows Starter machine.  No need for other answers.

  • Why firefox can not open with the default profile. It should be renamed?

    trying to install "malwarebytes" for extra protection, the Norton toolbar on firefox has been reduced in size by losing my option "Vault". This prompted reinstalling on securities Notion which then prevented the opening of firefox. Internet Explore works well but I use firefox for years so why change. Firefox won't open (even after being uninstalled and downloaded and reinstalled. The message 'your firefox profile cannot be loaded, etc.' following the instructions of your forum, I locate a profile with the word 'profile' embedded file. The word "profile" in the flow path is preceded by a weird name (such as a foreign name). Path =
    'C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bzjajhor.default-1419035389504 '. This file needs to be renamed and can they?

    Please help me to go back to firefox. Thank you

    Do not rename a profile folder.
    It seems that there is a problem with the profiles.ini.

    See:

    This is usually caused by a problem with the file profiles.ini and the profile marked as the default value = 1 in this file is no longer present on the hard drive.

    • Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\
      C:\Users\ < user > < profile > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.
    • Linux: ~/.mozilla/firefox/
    • Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox /.

    You can use one of them to make Firefox/reuse to create a new default profile:

    • Remove the profiles.ini file to force Firefox to create a new default profile
    • Use the Profile Manager to create a new profile
      Use "Choose a folder" when you create a new profile to select the location of a lost profile and recover this profile

  • Why can not be installed the coupoun printer?

    Whenever I try to install it, it does not install, does not show up to add the period from the list.
    But it works on internet explore!

    Moderator published on excessive punctuation marks

    First, after installing a new plugin, you will need to exit and restart Firefox in order to find the plugin.

    Second, you can check the Firefox plugins page to ensure that it is not disabled?

    Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > addons > Plugins category

    The cluster of plugins disabled to the bottom of the page on a gray background.

    If the plugin is not completely in the list, you can try the steps outlined in this article: Windows Media or other plugins doesn't work after updating Firefox.

    A little luck?

  • Windows 7 can not connect with the HP printer

    I have a HP Officejet 6500 E709n and I am running Windows 7 Professional on my laptop.  Recently, the printer no longer works and needed an updated driver.  When updating the driver, you must uninstall the previous software.  Once completed uninstalling the new updated driver installation failed.  I get a fatal error message, and after 2 hours with HP support make advanced remote troubleshooting, we found that, whenever I try a new device/printer, Windows 7 is rejected and not allowing the connection indicating the device is not signed digitally.  The problem is the device is digitally signed, but Windows 7 is not recognizing.  How can I get Windows 7 to recognize and allow my printer to work again?  I have tried both add wireless printer and plug the USB cable without success.
