Install HP Printer Psc 950 Can Not Working
Mar 23, 2008
I need to get Vista install my HP printer/scanner PSC 950. It recognize the printer and try to install drivers for it, but does not find any drivers. It asks me to input my CD for the printer, and I have tried that with no luck. On HPs website the say that my printer is built in to Vista and that Vista should install it with no problem. This is not true since I cant make Vista install it.I have tried to unplug/plug the USB cabel for the printer, and Vista does the same thing every time, trying to install the driver for it with no success. I have Windows Vista Home Premium on a HP Pavilion dv6000.

I have a Vista Desktop that has a wireless router. I have shared a printer, but I would like my Mac laptop to be able to print to it. Do I install the printer driver on the Mac or on the Vista machine? If I install on the Vista machine, is there a special installer? The printer is an HP DeskJet 2445.

I have coursework due in tomorrow and i havent used my printer in a while. I've installed a new OS since i've last used it, and assumed it wasn't working because I hadn't installed the software from the CD it came with. Anyway after ages of searching in my loft i find the disk, try to install and it's telling me NTPrint & Print Spooler services are unavailable, please enable them.
Run - services.msc, i try and find both of these services and they ARE NOT THERE! I've done alot of research since then and found out i need to use SC.EXE to kinda create the service, or i could do it through the registry. Only problem is i don't know how!! Please help it's one of my final pieces of coursework i really need this printed! I cant install my printer without enabling the services NTPrint & Print Spooler, but they arn't there. I need some commands or a regedit tweak to create these services. (Note - Please don't ask me to check msconfig or services.msc it is NOT there)

i had high hopes that installing printers on Vista would work better than previous version of windows but as it turns out it is worse! I have an HP P2015dn printer. I hooked it up to my Vista enterprise machine via usb and it was recognized. The wizard took me to a point where it was asking for the driver disk. I dont have the disk so i decided to hit "Cancell" so that it would be recognized and take me to the same prompt in the near future after i had gotten the cd or downloaded the drivers.
I got the cd, plugged in the printer again and this time it says USB Device not recognized. I thought "OK" i will just go to the printers control panel and install from there. Well wouldnt you know, you cant autodetect a usb printer from the printers control panel. It says "USB printers will be auto installed when you plug them in". I went to device manager and removed all usb items including the "unknown device" and rebooted. still no go. how i can clean up the machine to restore it so that the printer is recognized as a printer again? Or how can i do a manual install of a usb printer?

After doing a system recovery on my laptop, I can't print. Everything says the printer and drivers were installed. I could print before the recovery. If I plug USB into the laptop, it prints. When I try to print without the cable, I don't get an error or anything, it just doesn't print. I found something that says to /browse to the Temp folder of your user account, C:Users\AppDataLocalTemp and create a new folder and name it LOW. Then there are other instructions. I can???t find this C:Users, etc. Can anyone tell me exactly how to get there? I'm using Vista.

I am trying to install a HP printer on Vista Ultimate.I finally got the compatibility for to XP but now the install says I don't have administrator rights. The user account is an administrtor user account. Tried rebooting, short of booting computer out the door, but I can not get the HP printer to install as I can't get past this hurdle. Auto run will not work and will not install from the run setup.exe. Will not allow this either.

I have found hundreds of threads on not being able to install a printer on an XP to a Vista machine, but not one about my problem. Home pear to pear workgroup network. 1 Vista Ultimate 64 bit, 2 XP Pro's, 2 XP Home. Lexmark Z600 printer hung off of the Vista PC. Working fine. Trying to use this Lexmark printer as the main printer for one of the XP Home PC's. From the XP Home PC can see the Vista share printer.
When installing, told that this is not the correct print driver & does not install. Solution 1 - Tried installing the standard XP 32 bit driver for this printer on the Vista PC so that the XP machine can download that driver during shared install. Vista says this tyep driver is not correct and will not allow me to install it for network sharing.............

My printer is a Lexmark - (x-8350) All in One ---- Driver compatible with Vista is installed. The print is so small I need a magnifying glass to read it. I have attempted what adjustments I could make and nothing happens. I have contacted Lexmark and the help they provided me was minimal. I have never had this problem before and all of it sudden it pops up. I have new cartridges installed, however, not only is the print tiny, but the print is extremely light. I just kind of hate to have to go out and get a new printer without knowing if something can be to done to solve this problem.

I'll be helping a neighbor set up a new Dell with Vista Home Premium. She bought a Canon all-in-one MP610 printer with lots of application software on the CD MP Navigator, Easy-PhotoPrint, ScanSoft OmniPage SE, Easy-WebPrint, and ArcSoft PhotoStudio. I know i need to install the OCR software, but wonder about the rest. Do I need the MP Navigator for this printer to work? Will the Navigator or PhotoPrint software hijack any settings? Also, when I checked online, I found a new driver for Easy-PhotoPrint that's dated 10/08. If I install that driver after a full CD install for the printer, do I need to uninstall the older PhotoPrint utility first? I found general applications info on Canon's site. If there is a better source that can help me decide whether these utilities are needed.

I was able to load Vista SP1 RC Refresh 2 without a problem. I was in hopes that it would help me with the issue of trying to print to a networked printer on a shared XP machine from my Vista laptop where I have the SP1 loaded but that was a crock. Still getting error 0x0000000d when trying to connect to the printer after install. I am about to go back to XP and dump this OS. I just can't see how MS can justify not fixing these BIG problems that have been around for a majority of the users since the OS was released. Anybody got a pocket sized printer they will sell me cheap?

Here is a new one for you all. Up until 2 days ago I was running a Epson CX9400Fax all-in-one with Vista Home Premium on a Dimension E520. I had a paper jam and after clearing it the system seemed to be out of sync with the takeup roll. The paper, on a simple print job, would would roll halfway through and then show a paper jam. I assumed the jam had thrown the timing out. Since it's cheaper to buy a new printer than attempt to have it repaired. I had a new Epson NX415 delivered this morning, set it up and lo and behold it's doing the same thing as the printer I replaced. This shouldn't be a problem with the two different printers. On the other hand, is there anything in the O/S that could be causing this? I'm picking up a replacement printer tomorrow and if the issue still persists, it can only be something in the O/S. Have any problems cropped up after the last updates? I'll keep you posted after I try out another printer.

I have an hp PSC 750 connected to an XP machine. I am trying to print via wireless connection from my Vista machine. I have installed the printer on Vista, I have it selected as the default printer and it's status is Ready but when I print to it nothing happens, no error message or anything. This setup worked previously XP-XP, I replaced the remote XP machine with a new Vista machine.

I have a home network set up with one computer serving as the Server for the house, it is running Vista Ultimate x64. All the printers are connected to that computer and are shared. The server also contains all of our movies and music for the house. I have several computers connected to it ranging from Vista Home Premium x86 to Vista Ultimate x64. Now for some reason I am only able to print to the printer when I am logged in on an account with the exact name and password as the one that I made on the server. Any other account I just get an error in the printer queue. So I figured I just needed to set up everyone with a user name and password on the server. I did that and the same thing is happening. I've checked the security tab on the printer and set Everyone to have full control over the printer. Printer sharing is enabled on the server and I'm adding the printer to the other computers via local port "\SERVERColour Laser". So I have no idea what else it could be. I'm also installing both x86 and x64 drivers on the server and the proper ones on the client computers.
So to recap. I have:
Server - Windows Vista Ultimate x64
Printer 1 - HP Laser CP1215
Printer 2 - HP Deskjet 5550
Computer 1 - Windows Vista Ultimate x64
Computer 2 - Windows Vista Ultimate x86
Computer 3 - Windows Vista Home Premium x86
Computer 4 - Windows Vista Home Premium x86
Each computer has one common user name and password, "Tyler", I can successfully print from any computer while on that account. However I am unsuccessful in printing from any other account. I am about to lose some hair over this.

I added a network printer to my new Vista Home Premium laptop and printed to it without a problem. Then I shut down the laptop. When I start it up again, it lists the network printer as being offline and won't print to it. If I delete it and then add it again, it works great until the next time I shut the laptop down and start again. How do I keep the printer from being offline to my laptop? I do not have this problem from my other Vista Home Premium desktop PC on the same network. Both print tro the printer via a wifi connection.

Has anyone successfully installed Lexmark X 4500 printer on 32bit Vista Ulimate? I have been at it for a few days also with tech support and so far no luck.

I have an Epson Stylus c84 Inkjet that, according to the Epson support page, should already have drivers in Vista (I should just be able to plug in the printer, Vista will see it and load the appropriate driver, etc). However, Vista cannot find the correct driver and asks for the original driver CD, to which I try anyway and it still does not work. I contacted Epson who suggested I try and use the Add Printer feature. However, upon trying this, an error came up as soon as I pressed the icon: "Windows Cannot Open Add Printer. Operation could not be completed (error 0x000000c1)." I did not receive the original install disc from eMachines, and they have been aggravating when attempting to get service from them.

I am running Vista Home Premium on my laptop. I have a Brother wifi printer (although it connects to the router with a wire). I have 2 desktops and my laptop that use the printer. The two desktops use the printer without a problem. My laptop only works during the period after I add the network printer. When I reboot, it will seem to print to the printer but it just gets stored in the printer queue and won't print it.
Telling the print queue to try again doesn't do anything. If I delete the printer from my laptop and add it again as a new printer, it works great until the next reboot. I have no other printers in my printer list, only the Brother. None of the desktops (one Vista Home Premium, one XP) have this problem.

I have an HP 6830 deskjet printer (which according to my mom is old, and I guess she would know, seeing as it used to be hers....) and I tried to hook it up to my new computer today, but when I try to run the CD with the software, it says it can't install it because I don't have IE 5.0 or higher. -.- I use 7.0. I read somewhere that some printers need drivers to run on vista, so I went to the HP website and found their universal driver (or whatever it's called), and I looked, and it doesn't support my printer. is the printer just too old to use on my computer, or is it not compatible or something?

Printer sharing stopped working. "Server" machine with the printer is Vista. It uses printer fine. Router is Linksys WRT150n. 2 laptops, and second PC all with XP. second pc is connected to router by cable, not wireless."Server Machine" sees all machines on the Network page. Workgroup name matches on all 4 machines. The 3 XP machines cannot find the printer. When I run "add a printer" all I get is "Micrsosoft Windows Network" on the browse for printer page. I used to be able to see all the pc's and the printer attached to them. No new firewalls on any machines, I have disabled network discovery and printer sharing, and then reenabled. I have created a new workgroup name in hopes of fixing problem. I have run the network wizards.
