Printer driver is missing

I was printing on my HP printer very well. All of a sudden, it has disappeared from my printers folder. I can't print from Word or email. When I select print in my e-mail address, it is not said "no available printer drivers" and will not let me continue.

In fact I don't think it's a problem driver but for some reason any your pinter seems to have been uninstalled.

Unplug it from your machine (remove the USB plug) and power - off and on your printer.  Then reconnect and see if your machine detects (and install) it again.  Sometimes it also helps to change the USB port to which the printer is connected.

If not, try another cable between your computer and the printer if you have one - those who come in general with printers is not the best quality and can break...

If you have no. luck, come back and shout and we can try other things.

Good luck!

  • Acrobat for Microsoft Office 365 PDF print driver is missing or damaged

    Acrobat for Microsoft Office 365 PDF print driver is missing or damaged. Tried to repair Acrobat installation. However, MS 365 print AdobePDF doe does NOT - freezes app.  Can someone help me find the PDFMaker add-in or plug-in or a support that would allow applications MS OFFICE 365 (v.2013) print to PDF?  Thank you in advance. Bob

    You should be able to print to the Adobe PDF printer with v. 9 (I think 9.5.5 is later). However, c. 9 is not compatible with OFFICE 365, and that's why you have no PDF Maker. The alternative to OFFICE 365 is to use the built in MS PDF creator (usually in save them to PDF or XPS). With OFFICE 365, this should be part of the package. With earlier versions, it's an add-on. When you select the record, there is a box of options to enable saving of bookmarks and others.

  • 10.1.3 Acrobat pdf printer driver is missing

    Just noticed that my pdf print driver is missing in action.  Win 7 x 64.  What I tried:

    1. reinstall Acrobat X Pro

    2. installation printer manually as described here

    No results.

    It could be related to a 10.1.3 update but I'm not 100% sure.  I have a laptop, very similarly configured on the desktop, it's over and 10.1.3 and PDF printer is still there.

    Thank you very much!

    EDIT: also, perhaps that someone can tell me how to remove Adobe Fireworks?  It seems that I installed it accidentally when you reinstall Acrobat.  It is not in Add/Remove programs.  I installed via installer CS Design Premium 5.5.

    I had the same problem. I fixed it.

    I lost the option to print Adobe PDF. And could not manually restore without errors.

    I tried everything and nothing worked. Then I noticed that I had the drive on YOUR computer as well. So, I uninstalled DRIVE and repair ACROBAT.

    So:

    (1) make sure that you remove / uninstall all versions of READER on your PC.

    (2) then repair ACROBAT.

    Good luck.

  • New printer driver is missing or Invisible - Mac

    I just downloaded and installed the drivers for a MX922.  Mac OS 10.11.3 the installer says installation was successful.

    The scanner drivers are all visible, but this isn't the app/printer driver.  The manual says I should be able to find and open the print driver app in the Applications folder.  He's not here, well that are drivers sanner.  A run the installer twice, without any help.  SpotLite search does not find a file with the name of the driver anywhere on the disc.

    I was able to manually install the printer to print to a Wi - Fi connection - but would like to have the app available printer.

    Thanks in advance for any help that anyone can provide...

  • HP Color LaserJet 9500 - stapling feature missing in the printer driver Uviversal

    Hello everyone,

    We use a Color LaserJet 9500 in an enterprise environment. He had a hardware failure, our service partner repaired. Since then, the stapling function is missing from the universal printer driver. On the machine itself, we are able to use the stapler, but not on our PC.

    You can see from the attached images, official stapling is visible on screen captures, but on our machines, stapling is missing.

    How we miss?

    Thanks in advance!

    Paul of Hungary

    Don't know where on your driver, but he should be a tab like device settings on this tab will be a section called installable options and in this section that you will need to change the clip in not installed not installed. Most likely, the driver was reinstalled and the default probably isn't for the stapler unit. You must go to the folder of your printer and right click on the printer icon and then scroll the first properties if more than one and then left click and find the tab that has the installable options. Good luck.

  • HP Deskjet e3520: manually uninstall Print Driver

    Hi all!

    I got myself in quite the situation when I tried to clean up some temporary files and save space on my rather small SSD.  As such, I accidentally deleted the uninstall program for my HP print driver and now I can not uninstall the software, nor I can install newer software.  The software is looking for a file, DJ352x64.msi, located at AppData\Local\Temp\7zS0DDA, but there is obviously no because, well, I deleted it.

    So, any advice on how to manually uninstall my driver's license so I can get my drivers updated?

    Thank you!

  • HP Officejet Pro L7580: "Automatic duplex printing Module is missing" message.

    Although the double-sided printing works fine, the "Automatic duplex printing Module is missing" message, as I updated to Windows 10. I installed the latest drivers. Maybe a firmware update can do the trick?

    More from my side:

    I thought a little more on this subject and maybe we can solve this problem with a printdriver alternativ.

    Let's try a driver "HP Officejet Pro K550 series".

    Perform the following steps to install the printdriver alternativ:

    • Right click in the bottom left of your desktop and select 'control panel '.
    • then select "devices and printers".
    • Click on "add a printer".
    • Then click on "my printer is not listed.
    • then mark "local printer" (bottom)
    • Select "HP" on the list on the left and "HP Officejet Pro K550 series" on the right
    • After that finish the wizard

    After you have added the printer with success mark this printer as "standard printer" and allows to have an eye on printing and we'll see whether or not the error appears again.

    Kind regards

  • MS Office 2010 and C4380 printer driver

    My printer driver C4380 to work seamlessly with MS Office 2007. After installing MS Office 2010 I find there seems to be a conflict between the HP printer driver and print MS office dialog box. For example print double-sided is very difficult. I have to fix double-sided in the dialog boxes and then the MS Office dialog box seems to replace the HP printer driver and print the second series of pages on the opposite side in reverse, which I can't seem to change.

    Is there a setting in the dialog box HP or MS Office that I'm missing?

    Hey David,

    This problem only occurs in Office 2010? Is also double-sided printing the only question? try ingnoring the word 'Set' and rather go in my printer properties, select the finishing tab and select "print on both sides (manually). This should copy double-sided working properly.
