I have a Deskjet 1000 j110 series printer. I've tried download the HP Easy Smart App which recognizes that is the printer i want to install but when it starts downloading the drivers for it, the process stops saying that ; gathering device info, preping setup, search software, preping for install and finally ends with: We were unable to automatically locate any software options for this product. It sends me to HP support where i can search for my printer which is found but it takes me to a download page:
download hp 1000 printer software
Hello. I would like to use my HP DeskJet 1000 with my MacBook Pro running OS version 10.13.1. But the drivers page does not indicate a driver compatible with this version--only MacOS v10.12. Will I be able to install the printer on my computer using the driver for v10.12?
Install the best available HP print driver and software on your Mac using Apple Software Update. Before installing the software, turn on the printer and make sure it is connected to the computer you want to print or scan from, either with a USB cable or through your local Wi-Fi or wired network.
Since October 2016, HP printer software packages are no longer delivered through Apple Software Update. Visit 123.hp.com to download the latest HP software for your printer. Alternatively, if your printer supports Apple AirPrint, you do not need a driver to print from your Mac or iOS device. For more information, go to About AirPrint (in English).
HP printer driver is a software that is in charge of controlling every hardware installed on a computer, so that any installed hardware can interact with the Operating System, applications and interact with other devices. Easy explanation: because each tool is used in a different way, drivers in the real world such as manuals that contain guidance on how a tool is used and must be learned by the human brain in order to use the tool. once again humans can learn by themselves, while the computer does not, so that the operating system can control the newly installed devices to the computer (such as printers, scanners, VGA, mouse, keyboards) drivers must be installed first.
AllI have just succesfully found a solution to making the laser jet 1000 work under windows 7 64bitThe trick is that you need a GDI driver and finding a supplier ( other than HP ) who has built one.Go to the following link and download the windows 7 64 bit driver for the following printer =search desktop printer -> magicolor 2430DL ->drivers -> windows 7 64bit ( or whartever windows version you need)KONICA MINOLTA magicolor 2430DLinstall the driversAdd the printer as you would normally and then open the print queue window andunder printer properties select advanced and under print processor select winprint rawThe reason this works is that this printer uses the same hardware GDI engine as the lasjet 1000EnjoyAnthony
Then, Right-Click on the Laserjet1000 printer > Properties > Hardware > Properties > Change Parameters > Driver > Updated Pilote > I chose the "choose drivers locally" and then choose "Konica" as manufacturer, then selected the "2430DL" model. After driver insalled, I made the proposed change (Winprint/RAW), but when trying to print the test page, nothing happens, and the printer enters the error state.
Thank you so much Anthony! How in the world did you figure all this out?For those of you who need a little more direction, I will elaborate on Anthony's instructions with a step-by-step guide:The printer needs to be plugged into a computer that is running a 32-bit version of Windows and networked to your Windows 7 64-bit machine. The computer running 32-bit Windows will be your print server. On the 32-bit machine, install the HP drivers found here:and share the printer over the network.On the computer running Windows 7 64-bit, download and unzip the magicolor 2430DL driver that Anthony pointed to.Double click on \mc2430DL_win7_x64_v2024200\En\Setup.exe.When setup asks what components to install, only select the driver, deselecting the other options, and click OK.Next, it will ask you whether it's a local or network printer. Select Local Printer and click OKNext, under Select Port, select Other, leaving the drop-down box as is and click OK.Change the name to 'hp LaserJet 1000' and click OK.The printer driver should install successfully.
Next, click on the start menu > Devices and Printers and right click on hp LaserJet 1000 and click on Printer properties.Under the Advanced tab, click on the Print Processor... button then select winprint for the print processor and RAW for the default data type. Click OKStill in Printer properties, go to the Ports tab and click on Add Port...Select Local Port and click on New Port...For the port name, type \\your print server's name or ip address\printer's share name.For example, if the name of the 32-bit computer that is directly hooked up to the printer is WATSON and its ip address is 192.168.0.13, and the printer's share name is Printer5, you type:\\WATSON\Printer5or\\192.168.0.13\Printer5Click OK and that should be it.If you don't know the name of the 32-bit computer acting as print server, or the printer's share name, do the following:For Windows XP 32-bit:Right click My Computer and click on properties, then under the Computer Name tab it will tell you the computer's name next to 'Full computer name:'. This is not to be confused with 'Computer description:', thought they may be the same. For the IP address, click on run in the start menu, then type cmd in the text box and press enter. In the command prompt, type ipconfig and press enter. The IP address will be displayed.To find out the printer's share name, in the start menu or control panel click on Printers and Faxes (Devices and Printers in Windows 7). Right-click on hp LaserJet 1000 and click on Printer properties. Under the Sharing tab, it will show you the share name, which may be different from the name that appears in Printers and Faxes. If the name is greyed out, check Share this printer, give it a share name, and press OK.I haven't tried to get this to work by hooking the printer up to the Windows 7 64-bit computer directly via USB cable, but if I figure it out I will post an update.
I) On the 32 bit system I just left the printer installed as it was - only performed steps 11 and 12 on the LaserJet 1000 DOS, which was already installed. I changed the port to USB1, which is the one on which the printer is installed.
II) On the 64 bit Windows 7 system I followed the whole procedure described: steps 1 to 4. The LaserJet 1000 DOS, showed up as Printer under "Devices and Printers", so that was the printer name I used to create the Local Port. Had to update the HP printer list originally presented by W7 because it did not contain the HP LaserJet 1100 MS, which only showed up after the update. Printer is installed as HP LaserJet 1100 MS. Installation was rather fast. Worked fine. If there are any hitches later on its functioning I will update this post.
I am very glad to be able to continue to use this printer because it has worked great throughout 8 years and, additionally, the HP printers that replace it seem to work with a 1600 page cartridge, vs. 2500 pages for the LaserJet 1000.
After working on this for a while, I've pieced together some solutions offered by other frustrated HP customers. Below is a solution that will work for Windows 7 64-bit clients printing to a Windows 7 32-bit shared LaserJet 1000 printer:
7. After successful install you will notice two printers. One is the LaserJet 1000 and the other is the LaserJet 1000 DOS. They are not read to print. Need to fix driver issue on LaserJet 1000 in the next step.
I have same computer and cannot get the solution for the printer to work, It seems the installation of drivers of the konica printer is my issue, which ones do i use? a more step by step instruction may be what i need. But, can't get it to work now. I have my hp laser 1000 conected to a gateway running xp through usb and it shares fine with all xp computers but now none of the windows 7 will print to gateway computer.
Phil, do not use the konica driver. Use HP's host-based driver (DOS printer) on the WinXP print server and use HP Laserjet 1100MS driver for the Win 7 machines. If you do not have the host based driver, download it from the HP support page. Make sure to update the drivers first on the Win 7 machine in order to see the HP Laserjet 1100MS driver.
I resolved this problem recently. Host the HP Laserjet 1000 on a 32-bit machine like WinXP. Assign this as your print server on your home network. Your Windows 7 machine will be somewhere on the network. Install the host based drivers on the WinXP machine. Modify the DOS driver and change the port to USB. On the Win 7 64 bit machine, install a new printer as a LOCAL PRINTER (although it is not attched to the Win 7 machine). Create a new port. Local port type. For the port name use \\PrintServerName\PrinterShareName. Click on Windows update button next to update the drivers. Choose HP Laserjet 1100 MS as the driver for the Win 7 machine. Save with whatever name and do a test print. 2ff7e9595c
