Hp Photosmart C3180 Problem

Thank you very much for your help. I'll give that a go. The printer is
straight out of the box, brand new. So fingers crossed this will work.
I'll keep you posted.
Thank yoooooo ) )

Hi

Was it straight out of the box or a hand-me-down?

If the former contact HP, otherwise it appears there is a Vista driver
available. See

You may have to enlist a friend or colleague to assist you if you are unsure
how to proceed. Alternatively, you local friendly computer store probably
would help for a modest fee.

Just remember to install all the software you download with the USB
cable from the printer disconnected from the PC -- if it is USB
connected that is.

Before you try reinstalling:

(1) Go to Control Panel / Printers folder and delete any icons that
show there for the printer.

(2) Go to Remove Programs and uninstall any HP software for the printer

(3) Reboot with that USB cable disconnected

Then install the software and do not connect the USB cable to the PC
until either the installation tells you to or until you reach [Finsih]

Thank you all for your help. I've got a working printer now!!! YAY
I'm easily pleased!!

Great forum!!
