• I can't install the printer Brother DCP 1000 Windows 7.

  I can't get the windows 7 32-bit for my printer Brother DCP-1000 driver. Whenever I try to get the driver through the "Windows Update" button when the screen "install the printer driver', it tells me that it is impossible to connect and try again later. The same process has worked for my other two computers running windows 7. The computer has an internet connection, but cannot update the printer drivers. Any ideas?

  You can try the 32-bit drivers for Windows Vista for the STC-1000 from the brother download Site. They tend to work perfectly.

• MS Fax and Scan Print grey Driver after installing printer Brother

  I have been using the MS Fax print driver to send faxes. I recently installed a brother all-in-one printer/scanner/fax, and now when I select MS Fax in the selection window printer, all selections are grayed out and I get a message that I have to select a printer.

• Problem install driver Brother MFC 8300 (using Windows Update)

  I need help for my printer to work with a new installation of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.  I had to reinstall due to a CMOS error, I think it was because of a dead battery.  It could even be something else because I had other problems with this facility (explained below).  In any case, the printer is a former Brother MFC 8300 (he was a workaholic!).  Past times, I have re-installed Windows, there have not been any problems with this printer.  I just install Windows Update driver (the driver is named 'Brother MFC8600/9650 Series' in Device Manager).  But this time the installed "Windows Update" the driver and says that everything is working properly but when I go to "Devices and printers" it does not appear in "Printers and faxes" (as he usually does).  FYI, there is a list for "USB Composite Device" in "Devices" that shows "Brother MFC8600/9650 series" as a scanner.  Don't know what that means.

  I also tried to manually download the driver of 'catalog.update.microsoft.com '.  I downloaded 2 different versions of the driver.  It has a size of 2.0 MB file and the other has a 2.3 MB file size.  I found myself by installing do not either because I didn't know where the appropriate destination location has been using the 'Expand' of the 'Command Prompt' command with "expand -F: * " ."  I think that the file for the "Windows Update" file size is 2.1 MB (my memory is not the biggest however).

  I am running as a "Standard user", but I installed all the drivers of devices as an administrator.  I also noticed a problem with an application that I used before this re - install, "Ultracopier.  On installs previous he has installed fine and he demanded 'Administrator' rights after the start.  But during this installation, it did not work at all and did not 'Administrator' rights after the start.  I also had problems with a 2 to external hard drive related to the permissions and access to certain files and folders.  I don't know if any of this matters but I thought that the more information the better.

  I hope someone can help me with this because I really need this printer to work.

  Hello

  Sorry for the late reply.

  I suggest that you restart the Printer Spooler service and see if that fixes the problem.

  A print spooler is software that temporarily stores the disk printing hard or in memory until the printer is ready to print.

  Please follow the steps below:

  You must be logged on as administrator to perform the following steps:

  1. By clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, open administrative tools. In the search box, type Administrative Tools, and then click Administrative Tools.
  2. Double-click Services. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
  3. Right click on the print spooler service, and then click Properties.
  4. Under the tab general , next to Startup type, make sure that Automatic is selected.
  5. If the service is not already running, under Service status, click Startand then click OK. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  For more information, please see the link below:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/why-cant-I-print

  If you are still facing problems while using the printer, I suggest to uninstall the driver again and install all the optional updates offered by Windows Update and then install the printer drivers if not included in the optional updates and see if the problem persists.

  To install optional updates, follow the steps below:

  1. Press the Windows key + R
  2. Type wuapp
  3. In the left pane, click search for updates, and then wait while Windows searches the latest updates for your computer
  4. If updates are found, click on view available updates.
  5. Select the optional updates, and then click on install. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  Hope this helps, get back to us if you need further assistance for Windows.

• Having difficulties to install printer Brother MFC-J470DW.

  I called brother Support and after two hours of trying everything they could think of, the tech told me I should call Microsoft, that the problem was with them.  When I start the installation disc, it goes only so far and then it stops.  Gets to the extent where "connect cable" and turn on your machine.  And then it just sits there doing nothing.  I tried the system recovery and it did not help.  How to get this problem fixed?

  Moved Windows 7 installation, set at level and activate Forum.

  I called brother Support and after two hours of trying everything they could think of, the tech told me I should call Microsoft, that the problem was with them.  When I start the installation disc, it goes only so far and then it stops.  Gets to the extent where "connect cable" and turn on your machine.  And then it just sits there doing nothing.  I tried the system recovery and it did not help.  How to get this problem fixed?

  It sounds like a problem to brother or one you won't easily resolved in a forum like this one and the first tip that you're going to get:

  Restoration of the machine to factory default (probably an OEM, not Microsoft, method) after the backup of your important data and collect your keys/serial installation media and product numbers.  Then install latest drivers from device hardware and all updates from Microsoft including the printer after you have restored to the factory settings (probably an OEM, not Microsoft, method) and then install all the other stuff.

  Why this review here?  If the people who made and take over the device (alone, you declare having questioned) could not fix things - and you gave NO DETAILS on what they had you try - you could lose your time here discussing the same things again without the expertise of those who intimately know their own device, wrote the software you are trying to install and tested on the operating system you try to install it on--or you could start from a State of CLEANLINESS and last KNOWN GOOD configuration and if it fails, then - be able to solve problems with those to the brother or simply return the product as a failure.

  Now - if you really think it sounds like a pain - provide details on what is and was not considered, etc..

  Other suggestions:

  If you use this:
  Full driver & software package
  ... as your starting point (this is for your device), we'll simplify and get the printer installed first.

  Simply download the driver (assuming that Windows 7 64-bit, another bit of information to provide):Printer Scanner Driver & driver for local connections

  ... chill out, go to the folder where you unzipped it so you can find the full path and...

  1. Open devices and printers, click Start , and then, on the start menu, click 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.

     • Click on disk, and then navigate to the folder where the printer driver (see above).

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

  What he did add a printer to your printer list?  Can you print?

  In addition, in all their troubleshooting, they you save the driver Package & complete software and do a right click on it and run as administrator?

• Problem installing printer HP 4 L CSE and 970 in Vista

  I replaced a XP Pro that fried with a Vista Home Premium.  Trying to install HP 4 L and 970 CSE printers, but not had much luck, so I paid a geek $180 for the installation.  The 4L (primary) bit the dust, and I can't get the 970 to print at all.  Used Microsoft Fixit to diagnose and HP website to install current drivers.  When the printer is connected while she and the computer are not enabled, the keyboard lights "Lock" (Num Lock, Caps Lock, Scroll Lock), which does not allow the use of the keyboard.  My office is password protected, so I can't even.  Shut down and kicked up to 8 times, and the 9th time, all of the lights "Locking" are disabled.  This allows the keyboard to operate, but the cursor is dead.  Any ideas on why something as simple as installing a printer should be this aggravating?  The geek is not permanent by previous work, and I don't want to spend another dime for services already paid.  Any help is appreciated.

  Small Hi Flyer,

  This looks like a possible problem of USB port.  Go to the website of the manufacturer of your office and get the latest version of BIOS and drivers for the chipset of your machine.

• Problem installing printer HP new Windows 8.1

  Hello

  I have a printer HP Officejet 5610 printer I used quite happy with my new HP laptop which came with Windows 8, and then on the advice, I've upgraded to 8.1 Win.  Use this combo since February this year with no problems.

  This morning running the printer and started getting printer 'offline' when attampting to print.  Tried troubleshooting by using HP Web sites (including this forum where I found a thread about the mistake of the printer 'offline').  The final recommendation recommended re - install tried as long as.   It appears the togo through the uninstall & then install for this printer, but after a long while I get an error message telling me "fatal error." and the installation is aborted (i.e. reversed out)

  Are leaning on what is still connected to my laptop and, curiously, the fax for this printer is listed but not the printer.

  Don't know if this can help, but the HP error log...

  • Location code: 09864322.  Error opening key error - HKLM\software\hewlett-packard\install\{6F5B70F0-EA6C-4A5B-BB16-8390BD66B251} = 2.  Exit code = 87

  I spent almost today so far of evil with this & ideas now.

  Can someone help?

  Hello again, kean,

  Welcome to the HP Forums.

  I see you have some connectivity issues when you try to print from your computer Windows 8.1 update.

  I have some suggestions that in order to solve this problem, we can try.

  Click on the first link which explains the uninstall of the printer software.  Windows 8.1 is NOT listed in the instructions, but the instructions of Windows 8 will work the same way.

  Software has been removed, restart the computer.  When the computer is back up and running, please do a search for the fax and the printer and make sure that everything has been removed.

  The next step would be to reinstall the software and drivers. Click on the following link for HP Deskjet and Officejet full feature software and drivers.  Save the download on your computer desktop so it creates it's own icon.  This will make it easy to find download.  Double-click on the icon and follow the installation instructions.

  If troubleshooting doesn't help not solve your problem, then I would say call the HP Technical Support to see all the other possibilities for you. If you call in North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, please click here: click here.

  Thank you for your time.

  See you soon,.
