Upgrade to windows 8, the printer works?

Just a proactive advice to throw out there during the upgrade to Windows 8 drivers.

To make a successful transition, you may want to uninstall the drivers for windows 7 because the printer first before you run the PIW (Printer Setup Wizard) and install drivers for the printer to Windows 8. Make uninstall through programs and features in Control Panel.  This will save a lot of hassle and time on the road.  Here is a link to the PIW as well.

  • OfficeJet 8500 more scanner not found, the printer works fine. Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit

    I had to remove the drivers and the software once.  I have re-installed, but now the printer works fine and when I try to run a scan of the computer or the printer they don't know each other and I can't scan.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Ethernet Windows XP 64bits: printer works, can work scanner?

    Hello

    I know that XP 64 bit SP2 is not officially supported for this printer, but well... I bought so I want it to work

    It is connected by Ethernet to my router.

    • The printer works when installed "manually" (via the Add a printer function)
    • The scanner works when connected by USB, it has detected correctly, both WIA and Twain drivers are installed.

    But I don't know how to get the Analyzer has detected when the device is connected by Ethernet. I tried to change the port of the USB scanner detected, no way. I tried to install it manually via the function Add scan , no way (with 32-bit XP or, for that matter). I have a laptop with XP 32 bit, everything went very well with the supplied software. I need connected to Ethernet and no USB, and I feel like I'm so close to solution... An idea for help? Thank you!

    Hello

    There is no software available for Windows XP 64-bit, so any client software solution will not apply.

    Try using the native functionality of the printer such as the Webcsan function.

    Follow the steps in how to scan from the (network only) embedded Web server below:

    The option can be disabled by default, if so open the settings tab, select the administrator settings, check the Webscan and save the changes.

    So, you can share a folder on your PC network.

    First share a folder within your operating system and find the network path. then follow how to scan directly to a network (network connections only) folder > second step: set up the scan to network folder > allows you to configure the integrated webserver (EWS).

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 best has come out very low but the printer works fine.

    I was always able to make great copies.  The quality of the document that I copy is excellent and I've copied before.  Now everything I copy is very low and cannot be read.  The printer works without any problem.

    Hey 1265yankee,

    I see that you have a problem of quality of the copy with your Officejet Pro 8500 (A910) a model-all-in-one.  Have you tried to reset the printer hard and ensured that the device is connected to a wall outlet directly?

    • Unplug the printer while on
    • Unplug the other end of the power cord from the wall jack directly
    • Wait 30 to 60 seconds
    • Plug the unit back to

    Also, take a look at the steps in the document found here.  The document is not directly applicable in the present case, but the steps are the same for your question.

    Let me know how it goes.  If this does not solve your problem, then I have the steps to perform a factory reset on this product to see if an internal reset will be able to get the device to work as expected.

  • How to check if the printer works.

    They gave me printet 720C en with empty cartridges. I connected the printer. But when I try to print nothing happens. Not at least the paper to go so I can see if the printer works? I do not like to spend money for the ink and then discover the printer does not work.

    VDV

    OK, some are progressing.  The Red blinking light may indicate a number of things, but printing will not happen in this case.  I would start by clean cartrdige contacts, as shown here.

    If that does not solve the problem then see the page here.

    There is not low on ink or another indicator for the Deskjet 720 that could prevent printing (or at least going through the motions) with a cartridge empty.  The printer does an electric test of cartridges before printing to that there are no problems might damage the printer control electronics.  The printer will also check and make sure that the cartridges are installed, this model cannot work without both cartridges.

  • upgrade to Windows 10 now printer HP Officejet 6700 Premium does not work.

    I have upgraded to Windows 10 earlier today and now the printer HP Officejet 6700 Premuim no longer works. I found it to bind, but he says it has been disabled. How do you get to work?

    Welcome to the HP community @Nanabirchleaves,

    I saw that your Officejet 6700 no longer works after upgrade to Windows 10, and I wanted to tender hand. Start with printer HP install wizard for Windows, that will find and install the correct drivers, you will need on Windows 10 for the printer running. Try printing and scanning then and let me know the result!

    Best wishes to you, I hope that I have led you in the right direction

  • Satellite Pro L40 - after upgrade to Windows 7, the FN keys do not work

    Hello world

    I have a Satellite Pro L40 PSL4BE and have just upgraded to Windows 7. Since the upgrade I can no longer use the function key and the top and down arrows to control the volume. Keys F6 F7 & still control the brightness so I don't know the function key still works.

    Anyone know if it is a driver problem or nobody knows how to solve this problem?

    Thank you

    Drew.

    Hello

    You need to install the package of value added for Satellite Pro L40. This package contains all the necessary drivers for the FN keys. Then please install or update VAP if you have already installed an earlier version.
    Here you can download: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Can you confirm that FN keys work with installed VAP?
