Problem installing a printer or running a CD/DVD

If you are trying to connect or install a printer to a computer with its CD driver and you don't see the CD running go to panel control then look where it says "hardware device" and try to click on play all computer devices then you will see the CD running, if not open the computer at the back and try to move the CDs/DVDs drivers' cables.

how to install

Reeva,
If you have not tried to install it then follow the steps given below.
Disconnect the device from the computer. Insert the CD that came with the device into the drive. Let Auto run run the CD. Install the drivers for your device according to the operating system. Reboot the computer. Connect the device and allow Windows to auto detect it and load its drivers. Happy printing.
If you have attempted to install the device then go to Control Panel->Add Remove Programs. And uninstall the device and reboot the computer. Then you can follow the steps given above.

Can you do this?

1. Control Panel Check the installe Printers(If your printer is not there then do this)
2. Disconnect the printer to your computer.
3. Connect the printer to your computer..If your printer is not yet installed it should run on Installing.

I bought a HP Photosmart C4340 and my computer doesn't list it in the control panel under " Add a printer." I tried downloading the software on my computer with the CD which came with the printer and it won't load. Please help me.

Try downloading the drivers from here
Just pick your operating system first

A tip with hp printers is to NOT connect them until you have the software installed. so if you have it connected just unplug it run the drivers from the website and plug it in either when the installer tells you or when it has finished installing the drivers
