Hp Officejet 5510v Printer Compatibility With Vista
I just got a hp officejet 5510v printer today from craigslist. Just to find out that is not compatible with vista on my laptop!
Answer:- there is a basic driver within your vista operating system that will work. Not sure which one it is but if you go to your printers folder and click on add a printer you can choose the manufacturer (hp) and then the driver you want to install. Just find a driver that closely matches the one for your printer. You might have to try a few different ones. This basic driver should allow you to print. I researched it and know hp does not have a driver available but it was indicated that a basic driver does exist preloaded within vista that will work with your model of printer.

Hp Officejet 6500 Sound Issue
I have a hp officejet 6500 wireless all in one printer, there is a cheaper version, and them my wireless version that has wireless and also has rgb and b cartridges instead of all the colors in one. Basically my hp j6500 printer used to make a little badink sound after completing the printing job that was currently going. When it would finish i'd get the chime, and know it was done. But now it no longer makes this sound. I'm not sure if that was the actual reason for the sound, but it always did it after finishing a job. And now it doesn't. If anyone knows anything regarding this aspect of a printer, or a hp printer i'd love any help in figuring out a way to get it to do it again.

Hp Officejet 6500 Scan Pictures
I lost my manual and have no idea how to scan my picture from my hp officejet 6500 onto my computer. Please help step by step. Answer:- power on the scanner, put the document face down on the glass. Now, go in your start menu and look into the hp folder. Select hp solution center and open it. Once you see the menu, look on the left and you will see scan buttons. Set the scanner to 300 or 600 dpi for high quality scan.

Hp Officejet 6500 Printer Is Not Printing
My hp officejet 6500 printer isn't printing. Ok, so i have the officejet 6500 that scans, prints, copies, and faxes. My family and i have been having trouble making it print for the last month. Its connected to the computer. It seems to receive the data that i want to print, but it just says "idle" and doesn't do anything. I do not feel like flipping through the owners manual, so i would appreciate a how-to answer.

How To Uninstall Hp Officejet 6500 Printer ?
How can i uninstall hp officejet 6500 e709n series all-in-one? I bought this all-in-one printer approximately 3/3/10. We bought it because we need a fax machine. We were never able to connect the fax. We had to have hp's "special" 2-wire" cable. I asked hp where i could buy this cable, and they could never figure out what we were asking. Our questions were basic easy. We got sick of it, and returned the printer today. I didn't uninstall the software prior to returning this product-i did not know if the store would take this product back yet. Now that i no longer have their software cd, i cannot uninstall all hp software from my computer. Windows uninstall program cannot uninstall the software. Does anyone know how i can get this software off of my computer?

Hp Officejet 6500 Vertical Line Problem
When i scan a document it ends up with a vertical line running down the center of the page. The same thing happens if i copy and use the document feeder. If i just put the document on the glass there is no line. Any idea what may be causing the problem? I have cleaned the "rollers", but still have the problem. If it were a hardware problem, wouldn't the line show up even when i put the document on the glass?

Canon Pixma Mx860 Or Hp Officejet 6500 ?
Which multifunction printer is better canon pixma mx860 or hp officejet 6500?
Answer:- i'm not sure how you define better. They are both good printers. My definition of better is a better warranty and cheaper ink. In my opinion, the best deal in a photo printer is the epson artisan 800 direct from epson.com for $130 after $170 instant rebate. It's a wireless copier/scanner/fax/photo printer with 6 individual ink cartridges for high photo quality. The best warranty in the industry. For two years, epson will fedex a replacement and pick up the old one should you need it. If that's beyond your budget, the next best deal is the nx415 at officemax for $50. It's a copier/scanner/printer with 4 ink cartridges. It's not wireless and the warranty is one year. If you sign up for maxperks, you get back a $20 visa card so it's like paying $30 for the printer.

Hp Officejet 6500 Printer Doesn't Print From Internet
My hp officejet 6500 printer doesn't print from the internet. I purchased a hp printer officejet 6500 2 mo ago, and it worked for about 3 weeks. It copies ok but it will not print from online or wordpad, etc. I returned it and replaced it with another one, and it doesn't work either. I have spent numerous hours with the geeks in india who work for hp, but they can't help me either. The installation cd that came with it doesn't work either. The geeks said it probably needs a new driver! It will not install that either.

Keyboard Works In Windows Xp Pro But Not In Windows Vista
After cleaning up my hard drive yesterday, my keyboard would not work in vista ultimate 64bit. I tried 2 other keyboards. Neither of which would work either. 2 were ps2 keyboards and one was usb. Now, each keyboard was identified at post and would work in the bios. Now here is the really weird part. I decided i would go ahead and do a fresh intall of vista, as i was about due for it anyway. Just in case. I also cleared cmos just in case i somehow change something in the bios that was causing this (though i doubt it since the keyboard worked in bios). So, i reinstalled vista, and was able to use the keyboard to put in the activation key. So, i thought i was all set. However, once windows fully booted, none of the keyboards would work again. How is it possible that this problem carried over to a fresh install?
At this point, i became very frustrated. I decided to try installing windows xp pro. The xp installed, and now all of the keyboards work perfectly in windows. This would be fine, but i've got use to vista now, and would prefer to use it. Anyone have any idea what this might be? Could it have anything to do with installing vista too many times, so it started to disable functions.

Dell Dimension B110 Windows 7 Compatibility
I have a friend with a dell dimension b110, i have a copy of windows 7 ultimate, and i'd like to install it on this machine. I haven't had very good luck with windows 7 myself, but it offers a lot better experience than the aging windows xp, that she has installed. So, really i was just curious if windows 7 ultimate would even run all that well on this machine, compared to windows xp sp3? Which would you recommend? I personally love to tinker and such, but it's my step mothers machine. She wouldn't be very happy if i was to install an os that ran slower than the previous. I have a track record for screwing up this machine as well. I don't want to add to that xd so i figured i'd ask what all you guys think. Should i go for it and install windows 7, or just leave it as it is, and keep windows xp? Is windows 7 going to run slower than xp on this machine?

I'm looking at graphics cards, and i'm thinking about this radeon hd 5770 using a windows 7 x64 system, but reviews addressing win 7 are mixed, so i'm not so sure. My system specs are. Windows 7 home premium 64-bit
Phenom ii x4 955 black edition 3200 mhz
Asus m4a78t-e (with integrated graphics hd 3300 - 128mb ddr3 1333 sideport mem)
2gb ddr3 1600 memory (i'll add 2 x 2gb more before i get the graphics card)
500w psu
The windows experience index in my current system for graphics is 5. 2 and for gaming graphics 4. 6 (scale of 1. 0 - 7. 9). I've read of some people getting 7. 0+ wei scores for a hd 5770. My main concern is compatibility; i've had issues with stuff i installed and their outdated drivers. If anyone knows about the card i linked above (the reviews are mixed on win 7), or can recommend an hd 5770 that has good drivers for windows 7 x64.
