Select the CORRECT OS version!

Most printers come with two cds one for MAC and the other for windows. Make sure you have the right one inserted. Also make sure your printer has drivers for vista. It wouldnt hurt to check to make sure your system is malware and virus free before reinstalling. and if you are infected clean the infection out and remove restore points and make a new one. If you dont remove infected restore points you will just reinfect the machine.

All the software/drivers for your HP printer can be installed by clicking on the link below:

Just select the OS you use, and you are good to go for the free download.

You dont have to download the new version of drivers
what u can do is just install the full feature drivers from the disk and you will get all the options
The software is not installed properly

Try this. Go to WWW.hp.com and let the website find your printer and install the sotware automatically.

i order the 8 jan 2010 2 print heads No : 88 (ref hp c9381a for black/yellow and ref hp c9382a for magenta/cyan) and i receive it after 4 days.

You may want to try the full install before spending more time troubleshooting. It's a 300mb download (!), but it might be worth a try.

You don't say what software you're trying to use to scan, either; you may wish to try another one. If you want to experiment, you can download a free photo editing package that won't take over all your preferences for files -- check out portableapps.com and look for GIMP.


I've got an older HP printer, a PSC 1610, and it took me something like *seven* times installing it on Vista before it worked right. It turns out there's the regular uninstall, and then there's a super uninstall, and then there's a super duper uninstall, etc -- something like seven different uninstallation procedures, which is just insane.

HP's drivers and cruddy software convinced me to never by another one. It's a shame -- the company made some laser printers 15 years ago that are still working perfectly.

The L7580 is not meant to be set up as a scanning device on a network. This unit can only function properly as a USB connected device to have all the features work. Also, for the software to install with out problems, all other All in One software fro previous HP printers need to be removed. Once we did that and did clean install using USB only then did it work.

Everytime I turn on my home computer my HP Photosmart C4180 reinstalls everytime. I constantly have (Copy 1) (Copy 2) etc each time and have to keep changing the most recent as my default. Anyone know how I can solve this PLEASE!?
