Printer offline since Windows 7 update

Windows made an auto-update yesterday.  Since then, I can't print to my default printer.  Says that it is offline, even if it is not.  Can you help me?

That might depend on what updates have been installed, run Winupdate and review history, if any driver updates have been made, rolling back these drivers. Then change the wwinupdate Important creation and not updates recommended

  • Printer problem after Windows XP updates on 06122013

    Title updates: Windows XP original on 06122013

    Updates of Windows XP on 06122013 seemed to make me lose contact with printer HP LJ1200 and had to perform the restoration of the system to 06112013 do work again. The printer is set up as a parallel device, running on Port DOT4_001 (according to article of Port in the properties of the printer) and was removed in the LPT1 Device Manager and computer rebooted and reloaded LPT1.
    Tracking the whole Troubleshooting MS system under properties and nothing seemed to allow printing, so I restored the machine on the eve. Now the printer works.

    Computer is a Xeon E1395 of double a ASUS PC - DL Deluxe Intel

    Everyone still faces a problem of printing with the new updates?

    Hi Michael,

    I see you got a problem with printer HP LJ1200 after installation of updates recently offered from Windows update.

    What exactly happened when you were trying to print after the recent updates? Have you received an error message?

    Thanks for the sharing of information when you perform a restore as solved the problem.

    This issue would have occurred as a result of updates related to the printer or the additional updates to the hardware device connected to the computer. Sometimes, when these problems occur after Windows update, we should always check the specific updates that have been installed right before the problem occurred. In this way, we can identify the update that caused the problem.

    As the problem does not persist now, I suggest you to download and manually install the updates individually to determine the exact cause of the problem.

    Please let us know if you need help on this question.

  • CP 1518ni printer crash since HP software update using OS 10.7.4 (Lion)

    I did the usual update through software update for HP printers.

    The first impression I tried crashed once but then printed.

    Since then, I can't print Pages or other programs. Programs to plant about 20 seconds after hitting the impression. I restarted the printer.

    I use a fully updated Macbook pro, OS 10.7.4.

    Good news! My printer now prints!

    As I indicated above, I had an appointment on another case with Apple Genius Bar. When I checked I let them know that I had a second element that requires special attention.

    We looked at all the posts on this page. The tech said it sounded like a deeper problem in the operating system, while I had a complete to the top of my hard drive he recommended do us a cleaning and a reinstall of the OS (stay with 10.7.4 Lion). When I returned home, I used my Time Machine backup to restore everything EXCEPT such settings as recommended by the technology.

    I then tried to print a document. Asked me if I wanted to download the drivers. I said yes and 20 minutes later, I feel! I should note that the format of screenshot has been back to the original style (which was my preference).

    Thanks for all your help. I hope this helps someone else who has this persistent problem.

  • Problem connecting to the server, error connection server and printer offline. I have a HP photosmart printer and Windows 7?

    My printer is not printing. It say problem connecting to the server, connection error server and printer offline. I have a HP photosmart printer and windows 7.

    You have McAfee? McAfee has been updated at the same time as the last batch of updates from Windows 7 and it seems to be the cause of this problem for most, if not all, users.

    See the communication from this "criticism" - McAfee

    Some customers may experience a loss of network connectivity and/or errors in McAfee Security Center after a recent update

    You should make the fix McAfee, if necessary. There are corresponding communications for their enterprise products.

    I got McAfee, but the connection has started working again on its own so I thought I was clear of problems. However, when I checked it says he was doing routine checks the updates in vain when I told it to do a manually. So stick with McAfee you don't follow their procedure of fix would have upgraded my PC at risk by not updated and, like other McAfee ads have since explained, the application did not refer to its database of threats correctly [and this could explain part of the variability of the symptoms of failure but all involved loss of internet connection]. Actually, I removed McAfee then installed Microsoft Security Essentials rather & my answer IE is faster I knew it [even though I had the Add-ons McAfee disabled for centuries].

    I had to run the removal of McAfee Development tool a few times before and it caused a problem with the license if the PC was not connected to the internet during the abduction. Due cat of McAfee support reset their files in order to allow the relocation-reactivation. Here is their link cat - McAfee - media contains the link to the cat

  • Canon printer MX410 constantly goes offline on Windows 8

    Hello

    My Lenova Ideapad Z580 constantly 'loses' the shared wireless printer.  The only solution I have is to uninstall the driver, and then reinstall the driver to 'find' it on the network again.  Any reboots causes this to happen, but is found also at random times when the laptop has not been turned off.  We even reset the printer and then re-installed on the network in the event that something had changed there.  None of the other laptops in our House (using various platforms) has this problem, so I have to assume that there is an error in Windows 8.
    I've had this laptop in April 2013, but this problem did not begin until July 2013, I think that an update may be the culprit.
    Is this a known problem and is there a fix permanent, that I can use?  Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello

    This problem can occur because the value of incorrect registry, incorrect printer or network sharing settings.

    Method 1:
    If the printer is offline, then try the following steps to connect to the network.

    a. press windows + Q and type devices and printers.

    b. right-click on the printer and click on see what's printing.

    c. click on new print queue.

    b. disable the printer offline use setting.

    c. This resets the registry key to the correct value.

    Note: this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution.
