Printer will not come online with P3 computer running XP = Will not print.

My printer does not seem to be recognized by my XP operating system loaded in an Intel P3 desktop computer. I have loaded the XP drivers and the computer now recognizes the computer but I can't seem to get the print jobs to be recognized and printed by the Workio. I would also note that the "Online" light is not coming on on the printer. I understand it requires bi-directional printer cable which it has and the printer port is bi-directional as well. I don't see anything in the printer port settings that would have me change it from uni-directional to bi-directional so I am assuming it to be set to bi-directional by the system automatically. I've been scratching my head for a few weeks over this one. I also wondered if I could fix this by using a printer cable going to a usb port on the computer as an alternative to the parallel printer port. One other thing. This is a second printer. I am using a Lexmark 7100 as the main printer until this printer works. Thanks for any help you can give. canadadude

No computer of mine recognizes this printer and the left drip light keeps blinking even though i have repalced it

If by referring to the left drip light you mean the bottom left light; this is the indicator light for the color ink cartridge:
Left print cartridge light blinks, Power light on. Tri-color print cartridge is damaged or missing.
? Reinstall the print cartridge. If the error persists, replace the print cartridge.

? You can still print with one cartridge


it is possible that once the computer and printer are communicating that the error messages could also be resolved by running the printer diagnostic program.


If your computers do not recognize the printer, uninstall the driver, if you had installed a specific driver, and then go to the site below to download a driver for your operating system and specific printer:

USB Printer does not recognize with XP Computer

In most cases, the driver for a printer is supplied when you purchase it. It is the responsibility of the manufacturer to provide the driver along with the device to make sure the working.

However, most of the Operating Systems come with native driver support for many known printers. This is the fact we have to take care while purchasing a printer. Even though we misplaced the driver disc, if we purchase a good manufacturer printer, there is a chance to get the native support from Operating System itself.


There are some scenarios where printer may not be recognized by the Operating System due to some conflict with other devices.


Please follow the troubleshooting steps and check the operation:
  • Ensure that the supplied USB cable is firmly connected to both the printer and computer side.

Iogear print server not compatible with windows 7

Not compatible or not working well with windows 7?

Maybe, It doesn't work because the driver/application you installed is for other versions of operating system. I am also using windows 7 like you so don't you worry, You can still use your old installer/driver from other versions of operating systems. Just remember that before installing any program in a windows 7 Operating System Computer, Use "troubleshoot compatibility". Right Click the Icon of your program installer/application first, then choose "troubleshoot compatibility". This will allow you to choose on what type operating system your program will run. Just reply back if it still doesn't work.:D rate and vote for me:)) julyallan01_52.jpg

Vista & Xp on same printer

You need to download the drivers from HP website for VISTA.
If you wish to work printer in networking then you can also add printer in the Laptop by that method.
Let me know more how you need to go for ( since if your XP is a desktop, then I would recommend you to keep the printer connect with it directly and just use a LAN cable for your Laptop.)
