My Dell Windows 7 now cannot print or add a new printer. When I try I receive a message" Windows can not add printer the local spooer service is not running. Please restart the spooler or restart the machine." Been on services and trying other things with out a printer.
View 14 RepliesMy operating system is Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. I recently bought a new laptop (not a Dell) and so wanted to link this up and synchronize it with my Dell 305w all in one Wireless printer so it prints and scans wirelessly. I put in the CD that came with the printer and I downloaded the most recent driver (or so I thought). Anyway, after all that was done it prints wirelessly no problem. The trouble came when I wanted to scan a document from the Dell Imaging Toolbox. On my old laptop (that is a Dell) and my daughter's laptop (that is a Samsung,) this works wirelessly no problem at all from the Dell Imaging Toolbox.
On this new laptop, it doesn't scan wirelessly although it does print wirelessly. Every time I tried, first a message came up giving me a choice of two printers to use yet only one is showing in Devices and Printers in the control panel. So I chose one. (This message never came up before on my other laptop and I never had a choice). After choosing one, I then chose 'scan' and then 'start' from the Dell Imaging Toolbox. This then brought up another message that was titled, 'Network Scan.' 'For best results when scanning over the network:
- Save all your work.
- Close Dell Imaging Toolbox.
- Press the Scan button on your printer's operator panel.
I need to have it working wirelessly from a remote spot as it did with my previous laptop because I am disabled. How to rectify this scenario? What am I doing that is stopping this from scanning wirelessly? On top of that also related to the printer, every time I boot up the laptop, a message appears saying, 'Microsoft.NET Framework Version 2.0 is required to continue. This software is available for free at - Microsoft website address.' I've gone to the website and downloaded this twice but the error message still keeps coming up every time I boot.
My HP 6500 all in one will print test pages but will not print from my computer. It worked fine up until a week ago?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit computer which I will call the main PC. An HP LaserJer is directly connected to it, and shows up as the default printer. About a month ago, it stopped responding to print jobs. They show up in the "jobs pending" list, but do not print. If I try to print to that printer from another PC on the network, the document shows up in the pending list, but then says "Error" and will not print either.If I connect the printer to a different PC, it will print. If I try to print to the printer connected to another PC from the main PC, it will not print. The print spooler is running. There are only restore points from the past week or so, and this started happening over a month ago

I am able to print a test page from Windows 7. I am able to print from Openoffice. However, I cannot print from Wordpad or Notepad.
This is the event log entry:
The document Untitled - Notepad, owned by Mark, failed to print on printer \MACS-COMPUTERHP PSC 2350 series. Try to print the document again, or restart the print spooler. Data type: NT EMF 1.008. Size of the spool file in bytes: 1184. Number of bytes printed: 0. Total number of pages in the document: 1. Number of pages printed: 0. Client computer: \SEGO. Win32 error code returned by the print processor: 0. The operation completed successfully.
Note that if I connect the printer directly to my Windows 7 machine I can print from Wordpad and Notepad.
Some of our office computers will not print to our networked printer and the message says "toner low - offline". Other computers can print to the printer at the same time with no problem.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am not able to print in program(ie works, notepad ect.) to my network printer. The printer is a Kodak ESP 5250 connected via usb to my desktop cpu. Desktop is hp running win vista, laptop is an hp running Windows 7. All printer sharing is enabled. I have another laptop( aser) running Windows 7, it's hooked up the same way and it prints just fine. Here's the tricky part, I can get my hp laptop to print a test page from within the kodak program, but it won't print from within any other program. It acts like it spooled but then nothing come out.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have just upgraded the 8 pcs in my office from XP Pro to Windows 7 Pro 32bit and I've encountered printer sharing issues. I have a local mono laser connected to my PC by USB. I've shared this and others have been able to add the printer and on occasion print to it, it usually works when they want to print text to A4 but when they want to do labels or envelopes they usually sit in the queue and don't print. This is not an issue we had on XP and the document templates haven't changed. I don't think it is an issue with the printer (I've replaced it with a new one to make sure), I don't think it is an issue with the documents. I think it is an issue with Windows 7 and was wondering if there is a known issue or fix. The computers are connected over a domain not workgroup.

I got a new computer powered by Windows 7 which was upgraded to Win 7 Pro. I have it attached to a Xerox Phaser 8400 printer. The printer will not print in color when i use the word pad or Print Master software. It's own self test it prints color so I assume there is a setting I can't find.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI've just taken delivery of a new windows 7 PC, with i5-2500k/8gb/SSD/1TB HDD, Asus p8z68-v lx motherboard. Everything was going fine with setting up until it came to printers.I have 3 printers connected - Brother HL2030 laser, HP Photosmart D6160 and Epson Stylus photo R2400 - and NONE of them will work. All three came up with "your device is installed correctly etc etc" message. I can't print documents or even a test page. I've downloaded and installed Brother's W7 driver - zilch. HP site says you lose most of the functionality of toollbox etc but "the windows 7 default driver should work" - it doesn't. Likewise the Epson. I've tried 3 or 4 times to reinstall them all, deleting each first from the control panel, and absolutely no joy.I'm sure I must be doing something wrong but can't figure

In addition, it can not print on 3 hole paper. Was wondering if I was missing some setting, or if Epson has abandoned this type of format. If Epson has abandoned it, that is a real shameas 3X5 cards are the most popular index card out there.
