I have both of the aforementioned printers. According to HPs website, the 385 drivers are supposed to be included in Windows. However, during the device installation, I get the following error: Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it: Unable to find a core driver package that is required by the printern driver package.

My friend is running Vista Home Premium and has an HP Photosmart 6130 printer connected wirelessly. About once a month it disappears from the list of available printers. My son is running Vista 64 Ultiamte with an HP Photosmart 7XXX printer, also connected wirelessly, and has the same issue. If you run the HP driver install it says the printer is there. If you run the uninstall it says the...

Hello. I purchased a laptop with Vista on it for my son. We loaded the Vista driver for the printer. It works fine right away, but then goes off line. I'm unable to bring the print driver back on line and the only way I've been able to get around it is to delete the offline driver and reinstall the printer. Why is this going on and how do you bring the printer on the pc back on line. I...

I can not find my photosmart 7350 when I go to rint but when I installed the drivers it was successful, any ideas?

Buenas tardes: Perdonad si escribo en castellano (español), pero en ingles me defiendo muy mal. El tema es que tengo una impresora HP Photosmart 7760 que en Windows XP me funcionaba perfectamente y ahora no xonsigo hacerla funcionar en el Vista de 64 bits. A pesar de haber descargado los archivos que me han dicho los de HP.

Has anyone successfully gotten the HP Photosmart 7960 working in Vista. I used the XP drivers that came with the printer and when I go to print something it prints only text. I.E. If I go to print out a PDF file that contains text and images, it will only print the text. Is there a driver out there that is compatible with Vista? Thanks, Jeff

I wanted to set up my HP Photosmart 8250 to my new Dell XPS 420 with Windows Vista Ultimate and My new laptop (HP). I bought a small Server to make it a wireless connection to the laptop. But I never got that far. I put the CD into the Windows Ultimate and it would not run. It tried to update and it has all the updates that HP put out. It said it was up to date. Is there a way to make this...

Overall, my 8450 is working *okay* with Vista, except that there's a problem printing docs that are set up as tables. The print previews always look perfect, but in one case I was printing a calendar from a pdf and the lines came out, but no text. In another case, I was printing a monthly menu from IE7 (again, a calendar) and all the text printed, but no lines. (When I say lines, I mean...

Hi all, I have an HP Photosmart 8750 printer that I have connected to my router and assigned an IP. Vista sees the printer and is able to print to the device, however once I hit print the printer starts printing the document out. After about 10 seconds I get a blue screen from Vista and then the system reboots and the print stops. I can print to this fine through my Windows XP machine so...

I recently purchased this printer. However, after installing, uninstalling, reinstalling, communicating with HP I cannot scan to my desktop. Does anyone have a fix for this? -- jaz33063

I just bought a new computer with Vista Windows on it. I will not let me install my HP Photosmart C6180 all in one. Do I need a patch? If so where do I find it and how do I apply it. I would appreciate any help I can get for this problem. Thank You RRR

I have a D5160 printer that prints on CD and DVD. You can get the regular printing on paper to work by using the deskjet 990c driver. Has anyone been able to get it to work the CD/DVD printing? When I had RC1 installed there was a driver from microsoft called 5100 Series. When I installed RC2 that driver was no longer there. Any ideas other than to wait for HP?

FYI... The problem was in the Port IP Address. I went into the printer setup menu (using printer keypad) - network - network settings, to find the IP address (I printed it). Then I right clicked the printer icon under Control Panel - printers. Went into Configure to find that the IP addresses did not match. I changed it to match what I got from the network settings. Printer has been...
