Windows 7 will not install the driver for hp deskjet 6540

I followed all the instructions on the site of HP and windows will not find and install the driver for my HP 6540. How to make Windows do what should or is there a reliable place to download the driver from?

There is a driver recommended relatively complete for the Deskjet 6540 written by HP and Microsoft via Windows Update.  If the automatic install does not work, perform the following steps: connect the printer by USB.  Click Start, devices and printers, adding a printer, select the appropriate port and when the list of printers, click Windows Update in the lower right part of the dialog box.  It will take a few minutes for the update to complete, once that he choose the Deskjet HP (Hewlett-Packard no) 6500 Series.

If for some reason you can't use the driver provided through Windows Update, you can download the driver from the Windows Catalog site.  The Windows Catalog site requires the use of Internet Explorer.  For the Dsekjet 6500 Series there are three drivers listed.  11.4 Mo is the x 86 32-bit driver.  11.6 Mb file is x 64 64 bit version.  13.9 MB file is the least common architecture IA64.

  • do not install the driver for XP photosmart 5510

    I tried in vain several times to install the driver for my refurbished XP for my laptop HP photosmart 5510. I said I want to install via radio - he finds the printer and lets me select - then it starts the installation.  It gets about two-thirds through the bar of "installing network printer." "and crashes.

    I let it rest, go to walk my dogs, prepare dinner, and it moves of there.  When I click on cancel, it crashes during the phase cancellation and I'm relegated to "force quit" process.  It's annoying!  All I want to do is wireless printing.  Scanning the computer would be an asset.

    BTW, I had NOT of PROBLEMS installation on laptop of my wife under System 7.

    Help, please... Thank you

    The name of the 32-bit driver is different from the name of 64-bit driver.  You create a Local Port which will basically copy the formatted print data from the part of xpmachine.

    This is the KB how to perform this task
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/282842

    on Windows 7
    Add a printer
    Local printer
    Add to the local path
    \\XPMACHINE\printersharename (make a word share name or you must ' "quote all)

    Select the installed driver if you have connected the USB device

    Complete the wizard

  • Windows 7 will not install the drivers or windows updates

    Hello

    I tried to update my iPhone 5 and in the middle of the update, when my computer tried to install a new device driver, the installation failed. I tried to use a flash drive I've ever used on my computer and its driver installation failed as well. However, I used the iPhone 4 friend (that I used to have) and it worked fine. It seems that my computer don't just install the new drivers. The drivers that I have used before still work. In addition to my driver problem, my computer will also not succeed a windows update. Download updates, but then when I restart the computer to apply the updates, it fails every time. Any idea will be useful. My phone is currently stuck in recovery mode and iTunes can't recognize it to restore it because of my driver problem.
