There seem to be many posts concerning this message. I had this error and was able to determine that the cause was an attempt to download a network printer driver that was not Vista ready. After two phone calls to Toshiba tech support and (60 minutes later) it was determined that the only fix was to do a clean install of the system software. They knew of no way to reintstall the print spool...

i have two network printers connected to a xp home pc. everytime i try to connect to them using vista, it says: "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Operation could not be completed (error 0x00000003)." does anyone know what this error message means?

I have an HP network printer. It works well. However, if I don't use it for a while (a day or so), it shows that it is OFFLINE. How do you turn it ONLINE again? When I right click on it, there is no option to turn it online. - Tony

I have one machine that has Vista Premium load and 3 machines running XP. I have connected to the MSHOME network and can see the Samsung ML-1430 printer connected to another machine. When I try to install that network printer I get the following error message "Windows cannot connect to the Printer. There is not enough memory to complete the operation." Nothing is open but control panel to...

Vista Home Premium installed over XP on an relatively new HP computer, installed latest (Vista) software from Epson for Perfection 3170 scanner. Epson Perfection 3170 scanner works fine with Microsoft Scanner and Fax Wizard. Crashes with Epson Scan application (see specifics below). Spoke with Epson support who thinks this is a Microsoft problem. Using Photoshop Elements which calls Epson...

Since I am a loyal HP fan I bought a pavilion with Vista. My Printer is a HP with a HP wireless printing upgrade kit (for XP) I need to find out how to get the vista driver or will there be one in the near future. Also why is it that since they are all hp products why isn't it simple to get get the driver?

Hi -- I can connect to my HP LaserJet 1320 all right; it's a shared printer from my PowerMac G5 model, running Tiger (10.4.8). However, the printing process is incredibly slow -- even a single page is glacial, and multiple pages are pretty much out of the question. Is there something awry with Vista and printing to Samba-shared printers? Or does anyone have any tips for setting up the share...

I have a useer with Vista Business edition. I installed an HP 4100 printer via the network tcp/ip port. It installed the printer fine and for the most part everything in outlook prints fine. The exception seems to be that if she has an attachment that is either word or excel, when she attempts to print it will only print a portion of the email, ie to and from but the body of the email...

Dar all, any news on how to handle old faxes from XP or from another Vista install ? -- Simone Chemelli MCP (Exchange 2003)

Forget about trying to upgrade the drivers the hardware has been made obsolete.

Hi forum, I am using a HP Scanjet 4570/5500C but is so no related drivers for Vista. Is there a workaround via TWAIN? Regards Huib

I have two PCs (one XP SP2 and one Vista Premium), two printers, and a cable modem all connected through a linksys router. Every time I start the Vista machine, one of the printers is always offline. I have not found a way to get the printer online other than to delete it and then add it. This always works but is a bit of a pain to have to do on every start. Anyone encounter this yet?

OK, I have had it with Lexmark and their lame excuses for support - especially since I have an X5150 and they have NO idea as to when Vista drivers will be out! I don't even care whether I can fax/scan/etc, but just print. (And yes, I tried installing the old drivers but trust me they don't work). They told me to keep checking back in the next few months... MONTHS?!? I am supposed to do without...

I am trying to print invitations. I have windows xp and a 4-in-1 dell printer. I cannot get the printer to print. It says the jobs are in que... but they stay there for hours.... what do I do?

We just got a brand new computer (Gateway) with Vista Home Premium installed. Buying a new computer I did not think that the whole experience would be such a nightmare as we have upgraded computers and kept the same printer without any problems. This time it is a MAJOR problem!! We bought a new 3 in 1 Epson CX7800 back in the summer so because the printer was new I did not think it would be a...

Hello All, Recently installed Vista. Print Spooler is constantly failing. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, R

Last week, I got a new Dell XPS for home, running Vista Home Premium. My relatively new HP all in one 31800 doesn't have a Vista specific driver yet. Loading the barebones one downloaded from HP provides some but not all functionality. My old but reliable HP 4L required a parallel/USB converter to work but I'm not sure I've got the correct driver for the converter. After a brief flurry of...
