Windows 7 and HP printer Deskjet 842C

I am currently using Windows XP.  When I switch to Windows 7, my printer will work (Deskjet 842C)?

Windows 7 comes with the base of Deskjet 842 C driver. Thus, the printer work on Windows 7. For more details, see the following document:

    After that a virus clean my printer HP Deskjet F 300 quit working they installed Windows XP from Windows 2000 and I can't make it work help

    "they have installed?  You had somebody "clean" your computer and they have also installed Windows XP (you used to have Windows 2000)?

    The first thing you need to do is to determine if 'they' a legitimate version of Windows XP installed.  Download and run the MGADiag tool.  If the tool does not report that Windows is "genuine", take back it the computer and demand that 'they' install an authentic version, paid Windows XP.  While they are at it, tell them to install a driver for your HP Deskjet F300.

    If you do not have a genuine version of Windows XP, then go to this page: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=228&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw_lang=&product=1128298
    You have several choices to this page.

    • The top line, which only says: 'Pilot' is the complete set of software including software HP's Photosmart printer drivers and the scanner of your Deskjet.  As the HP notes, this is a very large download, so if you want this package, you must have a high-speed Internet connection or order the CD.
    • The second line, which says "Driver - Product Installation software" includes the basic print and scan drivers.  HP has said, "not all product features are supported with this installation package."  I don't know what "features" are not supported if you choose this option.
    • It should not necessary the "Patch" because or the other of the first two downloads is dated after the patch and so should be included.  After things are installed, you can download and install the most recent of the 3 "Updates".

    When you wrote that the printer "will not work" after a new installation of Windows XP, I assume that the printer is not installed at all.  Just in case, however, previously, you use the package that you download from HP, follow the instructions here to clean all traces of a failed attempt to install it.  (Note: remember "Step 4".)  "Step 6" refers to the directions outlined in the upper part of this post.)

    Is the printer connected to your wireless network and online?

    If so I just used the software provided from HP who asked me if I wanted to connect to a USB port or wireless router.

    http://welcome.HP.com/country/us/en/welcome-copy.html#support

    If your printer is not connected to your network, you may need to set up a temporary ad hoc wireless between the printer and a PC. Once you do this, you can enter the printer wireless configuration pages and configure the SSID of the network, wireless, encryption type, encryption key, etc.. Also, FWIW, I have set my HP machine with a static IP address to make it easier for me to access any pages of any PC on my network config.

  • Printing - Windows 7 and HP printer wireless problem

    I'm having a problem with wireless printing on... I am running Windows 7 Home Premium, on a a new HP laptop and an hp officejet pro 8500 wireless device.  As another user on this forum... it will work if I plug in the usb cable, but it is not an acceptable solution for me.  I have two other computers on my wireless network... a mac and an office (both on different operating systems) that are printing the printer wireless without a problem.  It will remain not connected my laptop (Windows 7).  What seems to happen, is that I lose my connection to the network.  This is not moved until I started trying to print wireless.  But now that I am printing wireless I can print a job or two, and then I lose my connection.  If I run upstairs and power to the bottom of my router, I'll be able to print again... briefly... and then I lose my wireless connection and I start over again.  I uninstalled and reinstalled.  I installed the correct drivers (and I am able to print... but I'll have to restart my router every 30 minutes approximately).  If I'm not looking to print wireless from my laptop (with windows 7) I don't have this problem... I lose no connection between my laptop and the wireless network unless I'm wireless printing.  Other computers on the wireless network will continue to work very well, but I have to restart my router in order to get reactivated the ability to print.  Print a couple of jobs and then * poof * I can't print more.     My router is a Belkin N + B1F688.  My printer is connected wireless to my router and is recognized and used by two other computers.  I spent COUNTLESS hours trying to solve this problem.  I have lived my configuration of the firewall.  WHAT SHOULD I DO?

  • Windows 7 and HP LaserJet 4 Plus

    I have a new laptop with windows 7 and a printer LaserJet 4 Plus old (but very reliable).  I managed to download drivers from the HP site, but it still won't print.  I get no error messages, just nothing happens when I try to print a document or test page.  I have to change something in my settings?

    There are three areas major problems installing a Laserjet 4 in Windows 7:

    • Ports.  The Laserjet 4 and its derivatives have a standard parallel port, but most of the Windows 7 machines no longer have a parallel port.  The most common solution is a USB-parallel conversion cable.  This can be problematic, because many of the converter cables do not support Windows 7.  [Edit - here marked positions have the models of cable converter in the forum users has reported as working in Windows 7]. In addition, most cables have no documentation (or even a brand name) makes it difficult to solve problems.  The converter can provide a parallel port simulated as LPT3: or it may be a port USB001.:  Another option with the Laserjet 4 would be adding a JetDirect card that would provide a network for the Laserjet 4 port.  This will require the Laserjet connected to a router and would provide access network on multiple computers if you wish.  A typical JetDirect card for the Laserjet 4 is shown here.
    • Drivers.  The Laserjet 4 drivers (and 4 M and other derivatives) are sent through Windows Update.  If Windows Update is enabled (as described in the method of step 2 here in the section "configure Windows Update for"...) you may be able to simply plug in the USB cable and install the driver correctly.  If not do the following: click on start Orb, devices and printers, add printer, and then select the appropriate port.  When the list of printers, click Windows Update.  It will take several minutes for the list to repopulate, when it is finished the Laserjet 4 series printer won't be available under HP (Hewlett-Packard).
  • HP Deskjet 842C printer will print on limited user on local Windows XP Professional SP3

    Hello, I have reinstalled my HP Deskjet 842C printer on my Windows XP Pro SP3 machine.  I am unable to print on any user account. It allows to print network computers when a user account when they are on the user account.  Only, it will not print user of the local computer account.  I have a canon also connected to the computer and it will print on the user account.  If I go from the user account to an administrator account, it prints.  I added users, authenticated users, and the names of my accounts to the tab titles and gave them all the permissions.  She still does not print.  In printers and faxes, the icon indicates the printer is "ready", either in the user or administrator.  What happens here? He used to work.

    Update: as an experiment I've reinstalled the drivers for an old Win XP laptop and was able to print from the user account on this.   When I try to add the printer in the user account the ability to add a local printer is dimmed however the possibility of adding a network printer is clickable.

    I found the solution to it.

    Bidirectional support should be tell-activated (ie. not checked) in the ports tab.  In an administrator account goto Start > printers and faxes > right click on your printer > properties (properties of the printer in Win7) > uncheck bidirectional support.

    I hope this will be useful to anyone who can search for it in the future

  • DeskJet 2546 b: Wireless print job stays in queue and poster printer offline after the upgrade to Windows 10

    I write a fix I found for a pretty annoying problem involving 10 Windows and HP wireless printers.

    My Deskjet 2546-b printer was printing OK wireless to the point 8.1 of Windows until that I upgraded my computer to Windows 10. Immediately after I upgraded to Windows 10, I could not scan, so I reinstalled the printer software and has worked for a day or two and then the printer would print not unless I restarted the printer or the computer - sometimes 2 or 3 times. This went on for a few weeks, sometimes it would be nice, sometimes, usually after the computer restarts, he would simply go offline. Once, he went offline 3 times when I was printing about 20 postage labels, recently he went 1 week without any problems.

    Long story short, after a lot of troubleshooting and to help a friend to HP, I found the problem to be associated with the WSD/service Port in Windows 10. My printer still maintains a stable connection with my Netgear router (wireless to the printer light stays on blue) and I was able to scan from the HP software and I could ping the printer... but printing would be just stuck in the print queue (the spooler service) and the printer showed offline in the queue, hardware and windows devices , or when printing from a program like Windows.

    I learned that if I went in devices and printers, until I sent a print job, if the printer showed offline, I could save time by restarting the printer simply and he would come every time (less painful) online.

    But it's just a solution and not a solution.

    Nothing worked... not even print and scan doctor. The final fix that worked was to define an IP address manually for the printer, and then I put the print driver to use a standard TCP/IP port.

    Here is the step by step. Your printer must already be connected to your network (solid blue on printer).

    Step 1: Make sure your printer uses a manual IP address

    (1) to obtain the IP address of your printer:

    • If your printer has a control panel with a menu, it's easy... Just look in the settings menu without wire/report and write your printer IPv4 address.
    • If your printer is not a menu of fancy and repower the computer and printer HP Print and Scan Doctor network menu display use (wireless), or you can connect to your router from a web browser (usually 192.168.1.1) and look at attached IPs (like me). Some printers can also print a report of the network when you hold down some buttons everything back up and running, but you will need to search the web site of the Internet or HP to find the process for your printer model - the report displays the IP Address of the printer.

    (2) once you have the IP address of the printer number, type this information in a web browser... like 192.168.1.x (where x is the last number of your printer)

    Web page of the printer should find - otherwise, use another browser (you can use a tablet or iPad if you want). HP has several different forms of printing of web pages (embedded web servers) depending on your printer model, but they all have a large number of parameters.

    (3) since the network tab or section, look for a manual IP address configuration.

    (4) suggest an IP address or type in a new.  I've personally used suggest and then replaced by the last number 241. You want to use a high number, something in the order of 240 to 250 to reduce the risk of problems caused by your router assign this number to something else on your network. Note the 4 digits for the new IP address manual, you will use them later.

    5) click apply and close the web page of the printer.

    Step 2: Make the print driver using the manual IP address of the printer

    Open the devices and printers in Windows, right click on your printing device and select printer properties. Follow the prompts to get the WSD port and on a new local port...

    1) click on the ports tab.

    (2) add the Port.

    (3) click on after the first screen, and then click new port type.

    (4) enter the IP address of the printer.

    (5) next.

    (6) select the new port.

    7) click OK.

    You have now two pilots displayed in the printers and devices window, you can now print... but you might not be able to scan and the HP printing software may not work as he might want to lets you add a new printer when you open it... If Yes, proceed to step 3.

    Step 3: Remove print devices and install a new one.

    Need to do this to get the software back HP synchronized so you can scan.

    (1) right click 2 print devices listed in the window of your printer and remove them by clicking on remove device.

    (2) open the HP printer Assistant software (from the icon on the desktop or you can search Windows by using the name of your printer).

    (3) installation/add a new printer... go fast and a new device icon is added to the printers and devices window.

    4) return to the printers and devices window and open the properties of the printer again for your printer icon.

    5) go to the ports tab (yet) and you'll see a new selected WSD port, select Port Standard, you created earlier in step 2.

    (6) you have now two print devices in the window (again), but now everything should work.

    These two devices alone from here on out. Do not remove one and everything should work fine. At least it worked for me. I hope it works for you. I'm hoping a Windows update resolves this problem soon, I see many people who cannot print or scan wireless after they upgraded - not just the stuff of HP.

  • Cannot print using Windows 7 using HP Deskjet 842C series

    I cannot print from windows 7 using HP Deskjet 842 C series.  Windows and HP said is compatible, it can only print from other applications and not Windows 7.  Any suggestions?

    In fact - what HP means without out and say what they deem a legacy device (printer) and even if they included a universal driver (Microsoft put in Windows 7) and it should work without doing you anything else - it is perhaps not fully functional as it was in previous operating systems where they (HP) it supported.

    HP in this case is the manufacturer of the equipment and in all related case material - the hardware manufacturer is responsible for the materiel support (drivers, software, etc.)

    You can follow the advice of HP, if you want to:

    But really what they're trying to say is, "your printer is old - buy a new one from us so that we can stay in business."

    ====================================================

    What I have not said in my question, it is that I welcomed the HP Support Assistant help with installing the driver. The installation has started and then fell in a heap. He seemed to gather a set of diagnosics and send it's out of HP and that was the last I heard. I don't know what caused what. HPSA maybe even helped to reduce collateral damage, I don't know, but what I know is that between HP and Microsoft...

    NOBODY TOLD ME THAT INSTALLING WINDOWS 10 COULD STOP MY PRINTER WORKS...!

    And installation has been fairly stable at best. At worst, it was a traumatic experience because of my PC to my work...

    So this morning I decided to try again and began the installation of the printer driver entirely embodied by choosing down, load the file only without the help of HPSA.

    When the installation began, I discovered that apps in fully embodied installation could be deselected (I did with joy... ).

    From there the wireless installation proceeded easily according to the driver installation only Win7...

    Ahhhh... happiness... :-)
