I tried a lot but could not resolve.

Please help me.

  • Difficulties to download the driver for printer HP laserjet 1020 for laptop Windows 7 (64-bit)

    I bought a new laptop from HP which works under Windows 7 (64-bit). I tried to download the driver for my HP laserjet 1022 printer - the website shows that this printer should work with Windows 7 with the driver available for download from the HP site. When I click to download the driver it starts to download, but then I get the following message "downloading lj1020-HP-pnp-win64 - in .exe was interrupted. I'm trying to resume the download and the same thing happens each and every time.

    Someone at - it solutions? Thank you

    Sarah - I dsl which is at the lower end of DSL speed and I can tell you that I sometimes have problems download from the HP site.  The HP software is quite 'bulky' and/or 'intense' (I have no other way to describe it).  If it gets interrupted it usually leaves.  My guess is that it's your connection mobile broadband is not not a connection permanently at times causing the interruption.  If you have no regular internet type, try to go to a mobile hotspot that is free in a city near you or a store that offers for free (Panera, McDonalds, Starbucks, etc.) and download the file from there.  Make sure your firewall is active and security to prevent unauthorized entry into your computer during download.

    Hi Michael,
     
    In addition to the suggestion of Palcouk, follow these steps and check if they help.
     
    Step 1:
     
    After you download the drivers from the manufacturer's website, right-click on the Setup file and run as administrator.
     
    Step 2:
     
    Temporarily turn off UAC (User Account Control) and try to install the driver.
     
    Note: User Account Control (UAC) can help prevent your computer from unauthorized changes. UAC notifies you when changes will be made to your computer that require administrator-level permissions. These types of changes can affect the security of your computer or can affect settings for other people who use the computer. We recommend that you leave UAC to help your computer course.

  • I have trouble to install the printer HP laserjet P2055 on my Windows 7 HP pavilion

    I have trouble to install the printer HP laserjet P2055 on my windows 7 HP pavilion

    original title: installation problem

    Local printers

    To install a printer, the most common method is to connect directly to your computer. This is known as a local printer.

    If your printer is a universal serial (USB) bus model, Windows should automatically detect and install it when you plug it in.

    If it is an older model that connects using the serial or parallel, you may need to install manually.

    To install the printer (add) a local

    1. Click to open devices and printers.

    2. Click Add a printer.

    3. In the Add Printer Wizard, click Add a local printer.

    4. Choose a printer port page, make sure you use a button existing port and the recommended printer port are selected and then click Next.

    5. On the installation of the printer driver page, select the model and manufacturer of the printer, and then click Next.

      • If your printer is not listed, click Windows Update, and then wait while Windows searches for drivers additional.

      • If none is available and you have the installation CD, click disk, and then navigate to the folder where the printer driver. (For additional guidance, see the printer manual.)

    6. Perform the steps in the wizard and then click Finish.

      Tips

      • You can print a test page to make sure that the printer is working correctly. See print a test page.

      • If you have installed the printer, but it does not work, check the Web site of the manufacturer for troubleshooting driver or updated information.

    My printer does not print.

    It is a difficult problem to diagnose because there are many printers on the market and many reasons why it could not work.

    First of all, make sure that your printer is turned on and connected to your Windows computer according to the manufacturer's instructions.

    Then, try the printer troubleshooter, which will attempt to diagnose and solve your problem automatically.

    Open the printer Troubleshooter

    Open the printer Troubleshooter by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooting, and then click Troubleshooting. Under hardware and sound, click on use printer.

    Then, try to update the printer driver on your computer. Sometimes printer problems come from out-of-date driver software, and can be solved by installing or reinstalling, the latest driver.

    To find the latest driver for your printer, first check Windows Update, which is designed to detect the hardware connected to your computer and automatically notify you when new drivers are available:

    1. Click to open Windows Update.

    2. In the left pane, click search for updates, and then wait while Windows searches the latest updates for your computer.

    3. If updates are found, click install updates. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    If you do not see a listed updated printer driver, it is always possible that there are: your printer manufacturer might not have provided to Microsoft yet.

    Most printer manufacturers offer updated drivers on the sections of the support of their Web sites. Drivers are typically organized by edition and Windows printing model. When you have found the right driver, install it according to the instructions of the manufacturer. For more information, see update a hardware driver that is not working properly.

    If your printer still does not work, see the support section of the website of the manufacturer of your printer for model-specific troubleshooting tips.

    I understand that you can not print with Win 8.1.

  • LaserJet 1020 driver for Windows 7 x 64 does not!

    Hello. I have the problem. I recently installed Windows 7 x 64, and when I tried to install the driver for my LaserJet 1020 of the site, an error appeared.

    First of all, when I launched the driver installation program, I have subscribed to the license agreement and proceeded. Than, in the loading bar appears, it came with 3 branches of division inside and above text was as "preinstall the driver files. Then suddenly, for a fraction of second text 'Copy of the files on the hard drive' appeared again once «Preinstallation of the driver...» "and he appeared again for less than a second and again and again... "That, after a few times, it's just crushed, with the Windows message"Printer Software Installer"does not work".

    And one more: in Program Files-> HP folder there is a lot of driver files (which seem to not work) and another file with the same file and folder inside HP HP... Recurrence, I think.

    So, what should I do? I can't use my printer for a long time because of this driver!

    I am have not spoken English for a while, so if I explained something strange, ask, I'll try to explain better =)

    Which is awesome? I'm awesome! ^_^

    I used the Russian version of the pilot, worked flawlessly =)

    Take it from here. Happy, if I could help it =)

  • LaserJet Pro 400: Watermark not printing on Laserjet Pro 400 on Windows 8

    On the computer of Windows 8, watermark does not print on Laserjet Pro 400 connected by USB. Please note: the function watermark works on other printers not HP, as our networked Ricoh copiers. The printer prints a watermark on a Windows 7 computer. Using the driver package LJM351_M451_Series-12200-drv_installer.

    Very hard to advise without additional evidence (such as samples).

    With my Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit system, I can print watermarks on my LaserJet Pro MFP color 400 M475dn (equivalent of MFP M451) device.

    Attached is a zip container file:

    • Small text in the abcde.txt file that contains the text "abcde".
    • Print file abcde.prn contains the print job generated by opening the text file in Notepad and by printing the document (using the driver of HP LJ300-400 color MFP M375-M475 PCL 6 (61.120.5.12262) UPD version 5.3.0.12262), by specifying the "SAMPLE" watermark with the default settings; exit 'captured' by using the option "print to a file.
    • Text file abcde.prn_analysis.txt contains an analysis of the contents of the print queue.
    • PDF file abcde_scan.pdf shows a scan of the printed output by sending the contents of the direct .prn file to the printer port.

    Try to send the contents of the .prn file direct to your printer port; for USB connect, you must use something like:

    copy  /b  abcde.prn  \\computer-name\share
    

    in a Windows command prompt session, where:

    the computer name is the name of the workstation;

    share is a share of the Windows printer instance name.

    The resultant prints show the watermark of the SAMPLE ?

    If so, then the printer handles the commands to the printer (in this case using PCL XL) OK.

    Can generate something similar to your driver for analysis?

  • printer HP Laserjet P3010 Series for Windows 8, 64-bit driver

    I can find the printer driver for this printer, but he doesn't mention Windows 8, 64-bit as a systems supported. Should I use another driver, or do I have to download the driver and it works well even when? (I'm not in the same place as the printer and cannot try it.) When I'm with the printer I don't have internet access.) I'm only in a location with appropriate internet access two or three times a year, so I'd like to get the correct drivers now!

    I'm sorry, but to get your question more exposure I suggest posting in the trade forums since it is a printer. You can do so at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/

  • Driver printer HP LaserJet 2200 d for Windows 7 - response

    FYI - got a new HP laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium. I had problems with the HP LaserJet 2200 d driver that ships with Windows 7. The driver provided with Windows 7 is for the PCL5, HP LaserJet 2200 (which is an older driver and let you tell the printer Config in Windows you have duplex, and that you have several input paper trays). After some troubleshooting and Explorer, I installed the HP LaserJet UPD PCL6, on the site of HP. Bingo! The PCL6 driver allows you to set up the printer as a duplex and configure the printer with tray 2, tray 3, etc.
