I have an HP L7680 installed on my home network. I have drivers set up for it on my Vista Ultimate desktop and my XP notebook. All has been working well for a couple of months. A day or two ago the printer stopped printing from the Vista machine. I get no error messages. The print jobs just sit in the queue. I have hard coded an IP address for the printer, and it is still correct. I can connect...

Okay, I just confirmed that my problem with printing a web page is Microsoft Explorer 7 under Vista Windows. You would think that since Microsoft owns Explorer 7 and Vista, that they would have been able to work together. Boy, what a mess. I just used Mozilla Firefox and I can print a web page with no problem. So, my question is, how do we get Explorer 7 fixed by Microsoft????

I have seen a couple of messages about printing to Adobe and getting a message that it was printed to a temporary internet file. I dont think the answer is with Adobe as I have version 8.1.2. I think this is a security issue with Vista. Can anyone tell me how to turn off this security so I can print an Adobe file to my documents. The message says. "internet explorer" in the title bar. ...

I continually receive "Spooler SubSystem App stopped working and was closed" when trying to print a googlemaps page. It used to be other programs too, but now it seems with all the "fixes" I've applied, it only happens with specific pages, such as the one I will list at the bottom of this page as it is a long address. Is that the issue? I'm grasping at straws now, and would really like to be...

I hope this helps some people. I rarely post to more than one group, but I know some people have tried hard to get older scanners and printers working often without sucesss. It's sure not a setup issue, but the setup group has morphed into a whatever you want to post about including Outlook since Vista RTM'd--and I want to reach anyone who has had the problem of getting an older printer...

Vista Bus x64 / Office Pro 2007 Can anyone advise if & how to do the following that were simple to do in XP fax: 1. Save a single page of a multipage fax as an image (.png, gif, tif, jpg whatever)?

Hi, I'm using a Canon MP800R multifunction printer/scanner. The problem is, I can't install it on my network. Canon were not very helpful and said it was a "Vista specific issue", not "Canon specific". Canon use a weird install procedure starting with a USB connection and then migrating to wireless or wired. The printer WILL work via USB but when I try to configure for a network using the Canon...

I was not having a problem printing my calendars and then all of a sudden, it stopped printing from a certain time to time. Now, it won't print the whole day anymore, and I can't find a place to change the print times. I already changed the time settings under File-Options... and I have tried everything else I could think of... any ideas?

I have one of the aforementioned multi-function units running on Windows XP with no problems. Unfortunately, the same levels of support do not exist in Vista. Currently, HP only supplies printer drivers (and then only PCL5 or PCL6) and ignores the scanner and fax capabilities. According to an email I received from HP technical support, the fully featured drivers for Vista will be...

As has been raised a number of times on this group, I'm having an issue with retaining the default printer setting. We are running our initial 12 machine deployment of Vista Enterprise with SP1 installed, along with 1 Vista Ultimate with SP1. All users, including administrators, have the same issue, which is that after a reboot, the previously selected default printer has not been retained...
