Vista 64 will not identify printer Epson Workforce 633

Hello world

New to the forum.  I just bought an Epson Stylus 633 Printer and Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit does not recognize the printer.  All my USB ports seem to work (mouse, keyboard, external hard drive), but when I plug the printer into the USB port it does not recognize the printer.  It should be noted, I recently had to reinstall the OS, but I think I have everything done properly and reinstalled everthing correctly.  Help, please!  It drives me crazy!

Hi Yesjams,

Unfortunately, we didn't found any positive results when we checked the compatibility of the Epson Workforce 633 printer with Windows vista operating system.

Reference:
 
I suggest you to install the drivers for the device in compatibility mode and check if this solves the problem.

a. Locate the installer.exe or setup.exe in the folder of the driver.
b. right-click on the file.
c. on the shortcut menu, choose Properties.
d. on the Compatibility tab, choose the version of Windows (XP sp3), you want to emulate.
e. check the box "run this program in compatibility mode". Run the Setup program

Thank you, and in what concerns:

  • Tried everything - Vista still does not recognize printer Epson!

    I have Vista Home Premium 32-bit. I spent HOURS trying to get my printer Epson CX7800 installed. I get the error unknown device and after trying to install the printer software, the message that the device is not working properly. The CX7800 is compatible with Vista. I have checked/tried this following:

    1. Installed updates for Vista.
    2. Tried to install the drivers updated from the Epson site. Installation cannot recognize that the printer is plugged in and turned on and closed unexpectedly.
    3. Troubleshooted on the Epson site. Followed their advice to uninstall/reinstall to the letter.
    4. Verified the printer on other computers running XP - works fine.
    5. I tried changing USB ports - all ports are good.
    6. FixIt ran from the Microsoft site - no problems found.
    7. Tried the Add Assistant printer - who cannot find drivers - even if I click on disc then point it on where are the downloaded drivers.
    8. Troubleshooted on the Dell site - have a desktop Dimension E521 - no luck.
    9. He spent hours searching for technical advice and do not yet have a solution that works.

    Any help for that to be resolved would be LARGELY APPRECIATED. It's a question of Vista - not a problem with the printer or the computer. Argh!

    I can't believe how easy the solution was... amazing that this simple solution has been so difficult to dig for!

    All I had to do was go to the Device Manager and disable the PCI Standard improved to the USB host controller.

    That's all! Turned on my printer and installed the software and I printed a page within 3 minutes!

    How frustrating that it took me more than 30 hours to get this simple solution. But I hope that it can save someone else from countless hours and frustration.

  • Cannot print the Vista Home Premium laptop on printer Epson Workforce 610 wireless

    Tried to implement printing wireless since our Toshiba laptop under Vista Home Premium to an Epson Workforce 610 printer.

    I have already implemented printing wireless this printer to my desktop under XP Home SP3 without problem and continue to be able to print from there.

    I went round and round with Epson.  They helped me get the printer configured on the laptop, but because the printer is working from the office, they say that it is no longer their problem.

    Here's what I know:
    -Wireless running on a Belkin Wireless G router, model #F5D7230-4, v.6xxx, with the firmware update.
    -L' laptop and printer are both connected to the same secure wireless network.  IP addresses all look OK, and I can see all devices when I look at the settings of the router.
    -I am running Trend Micro Internet Security 2009, but I turned it off.
    -Windows Firewall is also disabled.
    -I can print via the wireless router if the laptop is connected directly to the router.
    -No, I can't print from the laptop to the printer if the laptop is connected to the wireless network.

    I think there are some settings or configuration of Vista which is at the origin of the problem.  I looked the likely candidates in the properties of the printer and in the center of network & share, but I don't know enough about Windows or Vista to really know what to do.  Anyone has any ideas on this?

    Hello

    My suggestion would be to update the firmware on the router and wireless adapter first.

  • Epson Workforce 645 appears as the default on my computer and it says 'ready', but it will not be printed.

    Original title: printing problems

    I am facing a problem with the printer - or maybe a computer problem.  I can't pinpoint the problem.  My printer (Epson Workforce 645) appears as the default on my computer, and it says 'ready', but it will not be printed.  My documents will in Quebec, but after about 30 seconds, the State spends printing, error.  I've tried everything.  (Occasionally), it will display a test page.    Any ideas?

    Hi Julia,

     

    Thanks for posting the question in the Microsoft Community!

     

    You are unable to print and get the error message.

     

    I imagine the frustration you feel when you are unable to print.

    This can happen due to connection problems, malicious content or third-party programs.

     

    1 have you tried all the Troubleshooting steps?

    2 is the computer, or a printer attached to a domain network?

    3. are you able to print from Notepad?

    4. what documents do you speak?

    5 is the full error message?

     

    To check if it's because of connection problems malware content follow the steps mentioned below:

     

    Method 1: Run the troubleshooter

     

    See the site:

    Open the printer Troubleshooter

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows7/open-the-printer-Troubleshooter

     

    Method 2: Scan the computer to remove all possible malicious content

    See the site:

    Microsoft safety scanner

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx .

    Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

    Method 3: Clean boot

     

    When the computer starts to boot, programs non-Microsoft will not be started and would avoid any interruption of their share.

    See the site:

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135 .

     

    Note: once you are done with the boot, follow step 3 in the article to restore your computer to normal startup.

     

    Note: If in case you are connected through a wireless connection and then when you start the System Configuration utility to perform the clean boot, click Startup and Services tab one time and check see topic wireless are turned on (Enabled).

     

    I hope this helps. If the problem persists, let know us and we would be happy to help you.

  • Satellite A135-S2356 - BIOS will not identify SATA hard

    Hello everyone, hope you can help out me.

    Got a Satellite A135-2356 opportunity, everything seems fine but BIOS will not identify SATA HDD, shows no disk BIOS downgraded to 1.30, not good, upgraded to 1.40, not good. BIOS has no change/test/detection of HDD/SATA settings options. Tested the drive in another laptop and it reads very well. Received the Toshiba (Vista Basic 32) recovery CD, but given that the BIOS will not read the disk, can't do anything. Cleaned contacts, not good. This HARD disk must be too large, or something for the Board of Directors.

    * Hitachi HTS541612J9SA00 120 GB SATA, 5400 RPM *.

    Thanks for the help!

    Hello Richie

    To be honest, I do not think the disc is too big for your laptop. I can imagine that your laptop can handle with drives of 160 GB too. Unfortunately there is no public document on the possibilities of HARD drive upgrade. I can imagine that ASP in your country has information about such things.

    It's also quite strange that HDD is not recognized correctly. Long ago, I had the same problem. Every time when I used F12 at startup disk HARD were not as boot device. Solution in my case was to upgrade the BIOS to the default settings. I believe that your BIOS has already the default settings, but try to do it again.

  • LaserJet Professional P 1102w printer green light blinking, but will not be printed

    I had my P of professional LaserJet 1102w for a little less than a year.  I use it very rarely and very slightly (I've probably printed total less than 25 pages).  It has always worked well.

    But in the last 2 weeks, it stopped printing.  The Green led comes on, but it will not be printed.

    I went through the troubleshooting diagnostic tests on my computer (HP Pavilion, Windows 7 operating system).  The result shows that my computer detects a problem, but it cannot identify it (for example, no paper jam, no toner, etc..).  I manually checked it for a paper jam too.  I have not seen any problems.  I turned off, unplugged, he turned his back.  She still does not print.  And now the green light blinks, even if I turn it off several hours ago.

    Help, please.  Thank you.

    Update: I realized what it was.  My USB cable was very slightly loose.  I don't see when I checked manually the printer the first time.  But I checked a second time and just pushed him tighter.  Problem solved.

  • HP Photosmart Prem 310a went offline suddenly and will not identify the SSID to run the Network Setup Wizard.

    All of a sudden the printer has gone offline a few days ago.  Went through all the diagnostics, etc. but nothing fixed.  A solution-Assistant will not work cause it will not identify the SSID of the network that he has done since it was installed (long ago).  Have tried everything I can find online, unless I don't understand or is not quite apply and still nothing.  Wireless network works with everything except the printer. I am not very computer so I do not understand most of the letter & numbers abbreviations used here.  Help.

    It may be a heat problem - radio from the printer gets flakey when it's hot.

  • DESKJET F380 WILL NOT ACCEPT PRINT INSTRUCTIONS

    We have a HP Deskjet F380. Our operating system is Windows Vista Home Basic.  Just within the last week or two printer refuses to accept the printing instructions. I ran print and Scan doctor and tells me, that everything is ok. Print test page for doctor is also very good. However, the problem has not disappeared. When I try to print something, for example by email, the printer will not accept print mode.

    The only recent change in our systems, which may or may not be linked to this problem, is that we moved from BT Yahoo mail BT Mail about two weeks ago.  Help!

    Hi @hnforsyt,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    Please have a look through this guide to printing, print jobs are stuck in the print queue. Because it takes into account the fact that the printer will not print.

    Hi @kelley22,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I see that your HP PSC 2100 printer is stuck on copy and will not be printed on Windows 8. I'm happy to help you!

    The first step, I would like to recommend is a hard reset. Please see this message, How to perform a hard reset, by @Rich1. It is very important that the power cable from the printer is plugged directly into the wall outlet, not a surge protector. See this article, questions when it is connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power, for more information. This is true for printers and ink jet.

    Once this step is finished, please try to print a self-test report, to check the printer hardware is fully functional.

    To print a self-test report, follow these steps:

    • On the product control panel, press Setup.
      The installation menu appears.
    • Press the right arrow ( ) until print report displays and then press OK. The menu print report appears.
    • Press the right arrow ( ) until the self-assessment report and press OK. The self-test report prints.

    If the test report print, then on the computer, please try our HP print and Scan Doctorand let me know what happens!

    Hope this helps and have a great day!
