Customizing Devices and Printers in Windows 7

Skenny — Sat, 18 Dec 2010 06:07:24 +0000

Can you hide the devices in Devices and Printers in Windows 7 Professional. Or can you revert the menu back to the XP Pro look that just showed printers when you click the printers and faxes from the Start Menu. I don’t want to use the method of using group policy to remove printers and devices altogether and then creating a registry entry to point an icon on the desktop to access only Printers. I want the solution to be an option on the Start Menu as it looks much better in a lab environment. Thanks for your help

Windows 7 print spooler/queue

Lookingforanswers — Mon, 18 Oct 2010 22:10:15 +0000

Trying to print to HP 6110 local printer. Will not print. Windows troubleshooter reports “A print job in the print queue is preventing other jobs from printing”. Reports problem as fixed. Won’t print. Delete all jobs in print queue. Stop and restart print spooler in services. Delete files from computer|windows|system32|spool|printers. Update/reinstall printer drivers. Delete and reinstall printer. Windows update. Change USB cable. Clean boot. Printer did print test page from this computer at original install last week. System restore to last week. I get the same result every time, still won’t print. I would appreciate any ideas.

Thank you!

Mailtomuda — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 05:40:44 +0000

Hi, i am unable to install the driver for my deskjet 1180c printer driver on windows 7 OS, has HP got any support to install the drivers for deskjet 1180c printer for windows 7 ?. I have browsed through support & drivers at hp website but they have not yet released the driver for this printer to work on windows 7 even though the printer is not so old, I guess the printers which they have launched before windows 7 are all junk now, we either thow it in the bin or HP has to take the initiative to give support to these printers. can any body help me in installing the printer driver on my machine?

Windows 7 driver for remote printer

Lanczar — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 18:50:04 +0000

I have an HP7600 printer on a remote share running XP. The laptop running Win7, connects to the remote share, recognizes the printer as a HP7600 but cannot find the built in Windows 7 driver and asks for an .inf file.

If I hook up the printer directly to the WIN7 usb port, it installs fine.

How do I get the Win7 machine to pop up the printer selection dialog after it finds the printer, OR if I install the printer locally on the USB port, how do I redirect the port to the printer share?
