IndyBB,

 

First, how is the printer connected, to a host computer or some type of wireless print adapter?

 

Make and model of the problem computer and operating system. 32-bit or 64-bit?

 

Operating system in English or another language?

 

What virus program and firewall is on the computer?

 

What virus program and firewall is on the host computer?

IndyBB,

 

First run Delete Print Jobs to remove any stuck print job in the queue.

Disconnect the printer.

Download and run the patch(printer cleanup utility) until it prompts you to restart your computer.

Restart your computer. Make sure the printer is removed. Manual Printer Driver Removal

Download the Vista 32-bit drivers for Windows 7 32-bit or the Vista 64-bit drivers for Windows 7 64-bit. Install the Vista drivers in the Vista Compatibility mode You'll get a message, the printer is not connected. Connect the printer at this time(powered on).

Links to the patch/drivers can be found at...

 Dell 922 Photo All-In-One Printer owners thread (W7)

Allowing Printer past McAfee

1. Open the McAfee Security Center and then click on the ‘Internet and Network’

2. To the right of ‘Internet and Network’ you would see all the services that are present under it, just below that you would have a button ‘Configure’ please click on that.

3. Now you would have the Internet and Network Configuration, in this window you would have an option ‘Firewall Protection in Enabled’ to the right of that you would have a downward arrow, click on that.

4. Then click on the ‘Advanced’ button which would have a new screen up.

5. To the left of that window you would have ‘System Services’ click on it and to the right pane of the window you would have the ports listed.

6. Please check the option which is for ‘Windows File Sharing’ then click on ‘Apply’ and then ‘Ok’

7. Restart the computer

PudgyOne,

Here's the info requested:

First, how is the printer connected, to a host computer or some type of wireless print adapter?

   Direct USB cable to the laptop. That's all.

Make and model of the problem computer and operating system. 32-bit or 64-bit?

   Dell N5110 Inspiron Laptop. Just purchased. 64 bit Win7.

Operating system in English or another language?

   US English

What virus program and firewall is on the computer?

   McAfee Internet Security - Part of a 3 PC subscription for my home.

What virus program and firewall is on the host computer?

  Same answer as above... I think.

Thanks!!!

IndyBB,

 

A stuck print job in the queue will not allow the printer to uninstall properly.

 

Did you run Delete Print Jobs

 

Disconnect the usb cable to the printer

 

Run the patch(printer cleanup utility)

 

Restart the computer.

 

Make sure the printer was removed. Manual Printer Driver Removal

 

Install the drivers first, connect the printer when prompter and allow past McAfee?

 

 

Rick

Thank you Rick.

I enabled the TCP 137 to 139 (netbios)  and 445 in addition to what mcafee had. I thought that would do it. Ran thru the whole clean and install process a couple more times, including removing the USB devices.

I'm still getting the exact same result. Unable to communicate and it suggests I should enable bidirectional support - which is greyed out. This result has been very stable. I must have something simple that is wrong. Once again, my other win7 64 bit laptop prints from direct USB connection just fine.

Any other ideas?

Thanks very much!

Yes, checked windows/system32/spool/printers or whatever as given in the link. There was nothing there. Checked several times. Never seemed like things were getting stuck in the spooler.

Yes. Yes. Each time you give the same process and I have followed patiently and exactly.  It's not working. There must be something else. Scanning works.

Do you know if R151379 is the only Vista 64 driver for the AIO 922?

This install package gives me vers 1.0.5.2. The same install package gave me 1.0.6.1 on my other win7 laptop that prints fine. Strange, right?

Thanks

IndyBB,

 

When you installed the Vista 64-bit drivers, did you install them in the Vista SP2 Compatibility mode ?

 

Download the System Information Tool If using Vista/Windows 7, the tool needs extracted. Once extracted, right click on sysinfo and run as administrator.

If using XP, double click on the tool, then double click on sysinfo.

Allow this past your virus program and post the information back here.

Yes, following you instructions, always ran /R151379/setup.exe in vista SP2 compatability mode.

Thanks,

IndyBB,

 

You mention different systems, are you printer sharing on a host computer?

After you right clicked on R151379, left clicked on, properties, compatibility mode, vista SP2, then clicked ok.

You right clicked on the R151379, then left clicked run as administrator

Did the file unzip and just sit there?

If yes, then look for the setup file. Left click on, properties, compatibility mode, vista SP2, then click ok.

Right click on the setup file, then left click run as administrator.

 

I suggest running delete print jobs in case the test print job is stuck in the queue. If it's not there, then it may not be necessary. A stuck print job will allow yhou to go through the uninstall/reinstall steps but the same problem will still be there.

 

Disconnect the printer from the computer.

 

Run the patch.

 

Restart the computer. Make sure the printer was removed.

Start, control panel, device manager.

Go to the USB Controller section and click the + sign.

Starting at the bottom, USB Root Hubs, and working your way to the top, USB Universal Controllers, un-install everything in that section.

Restart your computer. Windows will find everything again and correct the problem one. Please be patient. The new hardware wizard may work 3-5 minutes before it's done.

 

Now install the Vista 64-bit drivers in the Vista SP2 Compatibility mode.

 

What happens?
