• Why my printer does not print with Windows 8?

  Why my printer does not print with Windows 8?

  Did you just upgraded or purchased a new computer with Windows 8, and now you can't get your printer to work?  If so, this can help you.  Many people have questions about the installation of their printer on a new OS.  This will help you answer these questions and make sure you get everything installed.

  Before you start

  Before you try to install the printer on a Windows 8, you should check to make sure that the printer is compatible with the new OS.  The link below will give you a list of printers that will work in Windows 8.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03168175

  If you have upgraded your computer to Windows 8 formed another version of Windows, make sure all software uninstall complete of your printer.  It should still print, but to use all the features, you will need to reinstall the software, if available.

  Another thing to consider is how you want to connect the printer to the computer.

  1. USB.  You must ensure that you have a USB cable which does not exceed 6 feet (about 2 m).  Be sure to connect the printer directly to the computer.  Do not use a USB hub.
  
  
  2. Ethernet cable.  Make sure you have the network configuration, you have a free cable port on the router, and you have an available Ethernet cable.
  
  
  3. Wireless.  You must ensure that you have the configuration of the wireless network, and you have the password of the wireless network.

  1. installation Via USB

  Installation via USB in Windows 8 became much simpler for users of HP printer.  In other versions of the Windows operating system, you need to launch the installation and wait that it asks for the USB connection.  If you do not, you will need to uninstall the printer from the devices and printers folder and then launch the installation.  In Windows 8, which won't be a problem.  If you plug the USB cable from the printer and then install the printer software, work remains.  Now for in depth instructions on installing the printer via the USB port click on the link below.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03521864

  2 installation Via an Ethernet network connection

  For an Ethernet connected printer, the installation is disconcerting.  All you have to do is to connect the printer to the network.  Once you have done so, Windows 8 will automatically install the drivers for you.  Then, all you have to do is install the rest of the software, if available.  It's really as simple as that.

  http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/support-drivers.html

  3 installation Via a wireless network connection.

  For a wireless printer, network installation is disconcerting.  All you have to do is to connect the printer to the network.  Once you have done so, Windows 8 will automatically install the drivers for you.  Then, all you have to do is install the rest of the software, if available.  It is roughly the same as just Wireless Ethernet installation.

  http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/support-drivers.html

  Alternative installation methods

  With Windows 8, the drivers of many printers are installed with the operating system.  These are called pilots InOS, since they come built-in to the operating system.  If you have one of these printers, you should have to do simply connect it to the computer via USB, or connect to the network via Ethernet or wireless.  Once you have that makes Windows will take care of the rest.  There are other methods of installation of your printer if normal methods don't work for some reason any.  You can install the printer is using the printer, or through Windows Updates Setup Wizard.

  Set printer wizard:

  Windows Update:

  Note: The drivers of Laserjet for the Asia-Pacific and the Japan will come only at a later date.  See below the link support site for the availability of the driver.  I will update this post once they become available.

• I have a Dell computer that came with Windows XP Home edition. When I start my computer the monitoring of ERROR appears: RUNDLL error loading \3\DLBUtime.dll

  Error loading \3\DLBUtime.dll

  I have a Dell computer that came with Windows XP Home edition.  When I start my computer the monitoring of ERROR appears: RUNDLL error loading specified not found \3\DLBUtime.dll module

  I just click 'ok' and he goes, but, as for what it stop popping up everytime I start my computer.

  Can someone help me with this?

  Aprilm,

  You are LuLu5119, who posted a question last August?

  If this isn't the case, you should have started your own thread.  If so (and even if not), you should have responded to questions about Dell printers.

  Assuming that you complain of a "Error loading \3\DLBUtime.dll" message that appears when you start your computer, you should know that the DLBUtime.dll file probably has something to do with the software from Dell which has been partially deleted, but could also be indicative of malware as well as partially withdrawn.

  In both cases, the best way for start you to prevent the message at windows is to download Autoruns http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

  Install the Autoruns and let it complete the scan of your computer.  Then click on the "Connection" tab and uncheck the following entry:

  Look for an entry that has 'DLBUCATS' in the first column.  If you do not see that, look for "rundll32 \3\dlbutime.dll" in the last column ("path of the Image).

  Uncheck that entry, close Autoruns and restart your computer.  You should get is no longer the message.

  If for any reason, you find later that you need dlbutime.dll running, run Autoruns and check the box. If you decide that you need never again, run Autoruns, right-click on the entry and select Delete.

  As General precautionary measure, in case your entry dlbutime.dll was related to malicious software, rather than the Dell printing software, download the following free scanners:

  MalwareBytes Anti-Malware: http://malwarebytes.org/
  SUPERAntiSpyware Portable: http://superantispyware.com/portablescanner.html

  For MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, download, install, update and run.
  For Portable SAS, follow the instructions on the Web page (note that the instructions assume that you use a different computer to download; if you're not, just make a note of the name of the file).

• Dell Inspiron 700 m with Windows XP is slow

  I searched the Internet and discovered that you can reinstall using winnt32.exe. I tried and installed on another partition on my drive hard (I dunno really what I do.) The newly installed XP on a different partition has one problem: he can't connect to internet because I think it doesn't have the drivers and I do not have the CD for the drivers. So in my computer, it has 2 hard drives: disk Local (c) and (d), (c) one is the original. So I want to start Windows XP by using the C: drive, but it starts by using the D: drive. I tried disk management, but it is said: the RPC server is unavailable. Any help? Thank you!

  * original title - so I have a Dell Inspiron 700 m with Windows XP, which is with me for 5 years and now is slow as f. I wanted to reinstall XP but I didn't have the CD.*

  Sorry, but I think I lost it :( I live in the Philippines and I don't think that we have a center of Dell here. Is there another way?

  Online. Go to the Dell website, enter the number of your computer and you should be able to order a replacement CD. If you find my answer helpful, please click the button "Vote as helpful"! Thank you!

• The microphone volume is very low on a Dell inspiron 13 7348 with Windows 10

  On my new Dell inspiron 13 7348 the microphone volume so low that my Skype partners can barely hear me. I checked all the settings in Skype and software audio dell and I updated all drivers... without success

  Connect a microphone extermal solves the problem, however, I prefer to not always have an additional microphone with me!

  Has anyone found a way to increase the volume of the microphone?

  Since an external device works well I'm afraid that the build-in microphone is actually of minor quality... what a disappointment

  So far, nothing has changed. I continue to go all my encounters with my laptop and this webcam with microphone build - in which I used the last in 2005... It's ridiculous... Don't know how many times I have had to explain to my colleagues why I use this external microphone... BTW, their Skype works well on non Dell computers with Windows 10 so I guess it's a problem that only affects users of Dell...

  As I said before, it's a big disappointment, and in the future I will avoid Dell products.
