When I try to print a box pops up saying before printing select a printer and my printer says his work

Ive always used my printer but now when I try to print something I get a box that appears saying before I can print to select a printer, I try but nothing happens and I always get the same message, the ideas of whats wrong?

Hi susan4122003,

1. you remember changes to the computer before the issue started?

2. This only happens when you try to print from any particular application?

I suggest you try the steps from the following links in the article and see if it helps:

  • My printer HP F-340 in one stuck in the queue when I try to print images.

    My printer HP F-340 all-in-one stuck in the queue when I try to print pictures but works fine when I print the letters and documents... Yes the printer fails only when I try to print photos or digital images (even the small photos).

    Could someone provide me with support to find out how to fix this fault? I already managed the "HP autofix tool" and said that everything is OK.

    Any help would be appreciated so much. Thank you.

    JMF60.

    HI - sorry for the late reply.  It does not resemble the printer hardware, so I wouldn't worry about the printer being the end of his life.  At this point, I think that I recommend to uninstall then reinstall the printer software.  This problem seems to be really driven by the computer/software.  This document will guide you through the uninstall of the printer.

    This document will guide you through the installation.  If you no longer have the CD that came with the printer, you can download the latest driver of the printer from here.

    BTW - nothing has changed between the time it worked, and when you started having the problem?  (Installed new SW, other hardware changes, etc.).

    Hope that helps.

  • When I try tp print a box indicates no printer installed?

    The printer is a Hewlett packard 1050 J410 series. works great as a scanner or a printer test page... Unable to print documents. It's happened before. I don't remember how I fixed it

    Hello

    There is that side of things for the printer HP. Something must be wrong
    with their driver. There is a slight possibility that you have something running
    originally a strange problem but I would not bet on it.

    Contact HP and ask in their forums.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600: Recently a fax pops up when I try to print photos and the picture does not print

    We have a printer all-in-one HP Officejet Pro 8600 operating from a desktop HP with Windows 7. Recently, in the last two weeks my wife told me, we cannot print photos. The documents appear to be printed without a problem, but when trying to print a photo we get a window titled 'Send Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8600'. We have never used or even hung fax capablitly since we have owned this printer (maybe 2-3 years). All of a sudden, this window is displayed when we try to print a photo and the photo does not print.  I can't tell you that my wife did not hit accidentally a wrong button somewhere down the line, but she says she does not. I tried to attach a screenshot of the window, but for some reason that it does not take it. It's probably something very simple, but technically challenged myself, I can't understand. Help, please.

    Thank you

    Vince Pellerito

    Print picture of what program?  Some programs to keep their own default values for the printer.  It seems that the default printer for the printing of the photo program has been set to Fax.  Try to open the program, select the Officejet Pro 8600 as the printer rather than the Officejet Pro 8600 fax.

  • 28 Firefox crashes when I try to print to the printer, Acrobat PDF

    Hi all!

    I observed a problem when I try to print a Web page in Firefox v28 using the printer of PDF Acrobat (Acrobat Pro 9.5.5) installed on a Virtual Machine (VMware View 5.2) with Windows 7 64 bit. Print dialog box crashes (no response) after the pdf dialog box "Save as." Then I have to force Firefox to close, and subsequently an Acrobat PDF conversion dialog box appears with the progress bar has stopped in the middle. I must also close it afterwards.

    The other programs (Office, IE, Notepad...) are able to print through the PDF printer without problem. The problem appeared after the automatic update of Firefox v28, since when I downgrade to Firefox v26 the problem disappears.

    I checked a setup similar to a physical computer (W7 64 bit, Acrobat Pro 9.5.5, v28 of Firefox), and everything works fine, so I think it's a change that's happened in Firefox v28 who has a problem with the configuration of the VM. I also tried to change the Firefox profile, reset Firefox and reset the print settings and reinstall Acrobat. No luck.

    I would like to know if anyone knows some changes in Firefox v28 printing or related to any service or update that may have a problem in the virtual machine.

    Any help is welcome!

    Thank you!

    I just try with Firefox 29 in the same virtual machine, and it works perfectly, so I guess that is a bug in version 28.

  • Firefox will not print on my HP PSC 750 printer and loses all formatting when you try to print to the printer Brother HL-5240

    I have no problem with one of my printers when printing 11.7 before or IE 6.0.2800.1106 but cannot print from Firefox 3.6.13 (or earlier).
    When you try to print to the HP PSC 750 inkjet printer, a "Print" dialog box appears, showing the title: xyz and a progress meter showing 100%, but it's be covered almost immediately by a second dialog box stating "an unknown error has occurred while printing" and, even if the continuous printer saying 'impression', no printing is taking place.

    When you try to print to the Brother HL-5240 laser printer, printing will take place, but all formatting is lost and what comes out is a block of text unintelligible running.

    What can / should I do to get Firefox to print correctly on my two printers?

    1. print.print_printer reappears after printing something. This pref is the last printer used, so when you reset the prefs it does not appear until you print something.

    2. that your problem with printer HP reappeared quickly, try a new profile.

    http://KB.mozillazine.org/Creating_a_new_Firefox_profile_on_Windows

    3. with regard to the preferences for the old printers, if reset you these Pref they don't come back (assuming that you do not select accidentally printers or printer drivers are uninstalled).

    Hi @JonnyHman

    In my view, that it is a spooler error. Please, perform the following steps and let me know if that solves the problem;

    Hold down the Windows Logo key () on the keyboard and the 'R' to open the Run dialog box

    • Type services.msc and press enter
    • Locate the print spooler and double-click it to open the spooler properties
    • Make sure you that Startup type is set to automatic, if not please click the menu down and select automatic
    • Under Service status, please stop the server, wait a moment, and then click Start

    If the problem persists, please run printing HP and Scan Doctor; Click here to download and run the print and Scan Doctor > www.hp.com/go/tools.

    I can't wait to hear back on your part.

    2. on your PC, go to the Panel control, devices and printers, right-click the printer and on the left, click printer properties, select the Ports tab.
    3. click Add Port, select the Port TCP/IP Standard, then New Port and follow the instructions in the wizard.
    4. Enter the IP address of the printer.

    This video resource will show you how do:

    Create & use TCP IP port

    Note that you can ALWAYS go back to the original port the HP software installed by selecting the HP port on the Ports tab (in the properties of the printer)
