• Photosmart 3100 series causes of program crashes

  I have an old HP Photosmart 3100 series printer that I have used for years. I recently installed in a Compaq HP refurbished win7 Pro. I downloaded the drivers, which I've done it before several times, but the printer will not work correctly. Whenever I turn on the printer, it automatically displays the 'test' page, which is used to align the cartridges. When I type something in any program (Wordpad or Open Office) text the text of program crashes. I did little to uninstall/reinstall, but the same thing happens. The printer IS set as the default printer

  Hi the casryjr8706, you can use the driver supplied with Windows 7.

  C3100 is a series of many printers, can be of C3100 C3199 and your printer C3140 is one of them. HP can produce C31xxaa and so on, that can be thousands of models that have the SAME root/series.

  Kind regards.

• 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.

  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.

  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.

  Hope that answers some questions.

  Why my printer say my appears not connected to my computer

  Hello @momodeda!

  Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

  I don't know why the computer does not show the printer offline, but I would be happy to provide help to try and get communicating them again!

  The first thing I would suggest is to power cycle all the devices.  Remove the power to the printer, shut down the computer and remove the power to the router.  Wait 20 seconds, then reconnect the router.  Wait for the lights on the router to return.

  Plug the printer in and turn on the computer.  Once all devices are back on, try printing again.

  If this does not work then I would recommend uninstalling the HP software.  Once the uninstall is complete, it would be wise to perform a cleanup of the computer disk. A disk cleanup will improve the performance of the computer and remove the temporary files that may cause problems during the installation of the software. Once disk cleanup you must restart the computer and reinstall the HP software.
  
  To uninstall the HP software, click here: uninstall the HP software
  
  To perform a disk cleanup, click here: perform a disk cleanup
  
  To download the HP software, click here: HP Officejet full feature and driver software

  If please, after back and let me know how it goes!
