OS601.64 problem installing HP c5280 photosmart. download driver for printer using window 7 and still does not work please helpppppppppppppppppp

1) Do you have the drivers for the C5280 installed on the laptop?
Each printer (All-In-One) has to have it's own drivers.
The C5280 and the other printer.

Drivers are small pieces of software that allow the Operating System to 'communicate' with a device.
{Windows XP and Windows 7 being two examples of an O/S. The device in this case is an all-in-one printer ]

If you already have both drivers for both printers installed, post back in a Comment.

It would seem that if the USB cable works okay on a different all-in-one printer, that the problem is Not the USB cable, but the printer.

This is what draws me to conclude, that the drivers for the C5280 have not been installed.

This should get you to the manufacturers support site where you can troubleshoot and find all the correct drivers for your specific printer.

There are many variations on problems with HP printer install. A crude method which worked for me on 2 occasions was simply to pull printer power cord out and reinsert after 30 secs. The installation may then complete. This is suggested by HP but you may not have tried it.

I have had many of problems with HP printer installs on different PCs and OS versions. In some cases if you just install the drivers only and ignore the bloated software that comes with them you can get a working setup. Use other applications for scanning etc..
I have had HP printers working fine only for XPSP3 to come along and render them useless.
Following HPs instructions for level 1.2.3.4 uninstall and reinstall may work also. Firewall and antivirus off is strogly advised.
Good luck.
