    HP will not develop a Windows 10 driver for this printer. The best option is to buy a new printer or get a laptop computer with the operating system prior to Windows 7 because this error occurred on Windows 7 computers due to inadequate software support driver for the printer. Perhaps a simple shooting turn also works as described in the link.

    Hi rbarbo43,

    I found the following thread that will help you during the installation of the printer in Windows 7. Let me know if you need assistance?

  • Printer error: "Unsupported personality: PCL.

    I'm running Windows 7 on a Dell XPS M1530.  I have an HP Laserjet 1012.  I installed the driver for the lj 1015 and it worked for awhile, but when I try to print something, anything out of print now is the message: "Unsupported personality: PCL.

    Any help is appreciated.  Thank you!

    I seem to remember (but did not attempt to verify) that:

    • The LaserJet 1012 is a host-based printer, which means that he doesn't understand or support for, the traditional Language of Description of Page (PCL5, PCL6, PostScript).
    • LaserJet 1015 does PCL5support, as well as the Protocol host-based; Therefore, at least one of the pilots may very well be an a PCL5.
    • The LaserJet 1012 probably has a rudimentary ability to treat a small amount of text, gross, and maybe some PCL5 simple sequences, in order to provide a diagnosis / capacity report, but this will work only until the page of the printer buffer is full.
    • Turn off the printer and then again clear the buffer of the page, then it will again appear to understand some non - GDI entry until the buffer is full again.

  • PRINTING PROBLEM... Kudos to the person who has solved my problem :)

    I'm having a printing problem that is hard to describe, but try sick. When there is a page in color I want to print in black and white.... He used print... some objects out... but not in its entirety. Does not print Anthing that was previously in color (although on the options I select black and white). If it's a regular e-mail, the alignment with objects, text only sheet... .it print very well. Help, please.

    IM using an officejet 5610

    Hello

    You also try to print using black ink only.

    However, you should consider that this will affect the print quality.

    1. Enter the Printing Preferences dialog box.
    2. Go to the color tab.
    3. Select printing in grayscale.
    4. Check the option Use Black ink Cartridge only .

    Kind regards

  • Express Outlook printing problem

    Since a new password in CPanel my emails aren't printing in Outlook Express.   Print the header of my emails but not the body of the email.   She appears when they want to print they are picked up as "temporary files".   Printer drivers are OK that's happening on my Copier and laser very well.   I just checked and found E-mail Express is no longer in service and they change throughout Windows Live.   Suggestions to do printing in Outlook Express would be appreciated?

    Thanks for the info.  You could try going to tools | Options | Read and read messages in plain text only, and then see if they are then printed.  They could not.

    Some IE printing problems are in conflict with the print drivers and you might consult the manufacturer of your printer and see if they have newer drivers, you can download.

    You can be assured that Microsoft will not solve this problem, then you could try to uninstall IE8 or its last update and see if you can print again.  Given that you do not use IE, then it won't matter what version you have, as long as you can print from it.

  • Printing problem with OE - 6 format since the upgrade to IE - 8: no space between the body and the subject line text.

    My computer is configured with XP SP3 and IE - 8. I've been using Outlook Express 6.0 (update of MS according to needs). Messages are always printed correctly. Lately, however, the body of the message printed directly below the object without line - the space between them. This happens on my Brother laser printer and my HP inkjet printer. I have not changed my settings of the printer. I've recently updated to IE - 7 to IE - 8; However, I see nothing in the settings of IE - 8 to explain this change in print. I recently installed "MobileMe" Panel Apple configuration, which has installed a separate set of folders in the list of folders in OE - 6. I did a clean (with Revo Uninstaller) uninstalling the MobileMe Control Panel, removed the extra e-mail account/folders and rebooted. Yet the printing problem.

    How to restore the space of line between the subject and the message body?

    Hello

    1. How is like print preview?
    2. don't you make changes to the footer settings?

    Method 1.
    If that doesn't help you can not save the file wmp.dll
    a. log on as an administrator.
    b. Click Start, type cmd.exe in the Run dialog box right click on cmd.exe, click Run as administrator and then click on continue.
    c. at the command prompt, type regsvr32 oled32.dll and press enter and then click OK.

    Method 2.
    If this problem started occurring recently, you can restore the computer to a previous state. You lose Internet Explorer 8 and return to Internet Explorer 7. In this way, we can check whether or not the root cause of the problem is installation of Internet Explorer 8.

    Welcome to the community, @ausiluver

    Thanks for a great post to start with!

    Personally, I would say that the problem you describe sounds like a printhead problem and perhaps a cartridge problem, which should dissipate if you try another cartridge. My best advice would be to check the steps in the guide below, make sure that you have tried all the. Some steps may look familiar to you already did some work on this issue.

    If the problem arises again, however, after these steps, troubleshooting, I would recommend contacting HP directly, to see if they have a replacement option for you or for a trade in option.

  • Printing problem Photoshop CC to HP; newly released s Z5400 Postscxript inkjet printer

    HP support staff unfortunately are still using PS 5 to help with printing problems. They only got Windos 7 too who doesn't get useful information of them viable. The problem that I am facing is print on canvas 24 "on this printer capable of 44". Only been in Australia for a month and had updated its firmware. I create a lot of panoramic canvas 20 "x 40". I need to print 24 "x 44" to facilitate packaging Gallery of images of artists. OK so with all printers in thank you I had no problem using the Photoshop 'don't print' command and setting the specifications in the dialogue provided by Photoshop.

    With this printer I get additional options available through or PC Photoshop via a touch screen of the printer itself. The problem that I can not get resolved by HP (who naturally blame Adobe for it) is that no matter what I said the widtyh of paper for and subsequently, the printed image, the printer tries to print an image of a 44 "wide on paper 24". Nothing to do with the orientation of the image. Nothing to do either with all the settings of Photoshop so please don't go into the basics, I spent 21/2 hours on the phone with HP it.

    If I use Save to PDF from Adobe 9/10 editable in Photoshop, I can print the image using Adobe Acrobat Pro XL. Nice quality, correct color but... It is not printed in Photoshop, I add another layer of complexity to achieve the result. According to HP, I'm the only person in the world with this problem. Well the printert has only just been released and it is not promoted as a specific canvas printer so maybe I was just the first of many who will follow in my footsteps. Recognize by using one of these machines and their ability to produce realistic colors and fall into the pit, in that I am the economy. Staff with on the hardware and software that can't duplicate support issues.

    Apart from giving up my subscription and CC, then back to version 5 of Photoshop, has one you have a suggestion for Tristan, what would happen and what can be done to remedy this?

    The automaticity of this printer uses controls is half the problem. The fact that it does not come with a user manual is another part of the puzzle and how you select a type of paper in order to obtain print heads up to canvas to print by selecting the type of paper, that all adds the problem on what is happening. But at the end of the day, I feel because I can print these images from Corel PhotoPaint, same Irfanview using the printer driver tells me how it is intended to be used, the question is in Photoshop CC.

    Nature cconstructive any help will be welcome.

    Ryadia.

    Well... I solved the problem a little differently. I got a 100% + fees refund of HP themselves and bought an Epson! Boy, was the right decision to make than ever before. I had not one problem with the Epson where HP gave me a litany of endless drama. I do not understand why a manufacturer of the printer must create defective and the bug ridden software that wants to take control of Windows and Photoshop and then they try and blame everyone except themselves.

    The postscript HP Z5400 printer proved something important for me... You always get what you pay for. I run canvas about4-5 hours a day with the Epson. I had to stay at work past 8 hours a day just to get the same amount of work out of the HP. For speed, I've never had anything faster than a 8100 Canon, but the hidden costs of the property are horrible. The HP is the cheapest that I had and the slower printer. The Epson is economical to run, carried out at a reasonable speed and has no hidden cost.

    After 5 months of harassing HP to get the "next, on the site" support I paid an extra $1200 for and never had, I can guarantee you that I will never, never has another Hewlett Packard product again. I had to go to the head of the Asia-Pacific off to get anyone who would listen to me. The Australians asked me to sign a form I would keep my mouth shut and sacrifice almost a grand that I put in it before talking about a refund. Then I discovered that they had received a fine of $ 3 million by competition and consumers watch dog in Australia more than tell someone who bought a $200 printer for a walk when he dropped his bowels a few weeks after the purchase. This crowd is pure poison for consumers.

  • Interactive buttons in PDF format are at the origin of printing problem

    I'm working on a magazine PDF in InDesign CS5. I recently added interactive "arrows" for readers to navigate to the previous/next pages. The buttons work fine, but some of our subscribers are unable to print the PDF file (they get blank pages). A test, I re-recorded exact same InDesign document to PDF without buttons, and one of my subscribers was then able to print the document as usual. My PDF files always include hyperlinks, indeed, who have never been a problem.

    Because only some people experience printing problems, I thought it's maybe because they are with older versions of Adobe Reader; However, a person experiencing it uses Reader Version 9. The problem could be related to older printers? Something else? I decided to remove the buttons, but I'm still curious about why this is happening.

    Set the buttons to display but not print.

  • Where can I find better, more correct instructions to solve printing problems by editing prefs.js?

    Instructions of "resolve printing problems | Firefox Help, line 6. Delete all the lines in prefs.js that begin with print_ and save the file. "do not match what is actually in my prefs.js file.

    In other words, he didn't y not the lines * beginning * with "print" or "print_". However, the string of five characters 'print' is * very * many times buried deep in a line of characters, but never at the beginning of a line and rarely followed by underscore. So I have no idea what I'm actually planned to do to solve my problem.

    It seems to me that this is just a badly phrased statement that might be more appropriate for someone who is familiar with the codification and development of software, which I'm not. I don't have the time, experience or knowledge to understand. I need more literal/explicit/specific instructions.

    The printing problem I have is that I have to print via WiFi to a printer in another room wired to another computer, and Firefox seems to switch or possibly reverse scales fonts for information of margin and the text of the Web page. In other words, the title of the document, date, time, prints etc very wide and the content of the page text prints almost too small to read.

    If there is a lot of user set prefs involved that need to be reset, then it's much easier to delete related lines of the prefs.js is each of them with the button straight on the topic: config page and click Reset.
    This is the main reason (single) to edit the prefs.js file.
