Hi,

 

It looks like we'll need to do further diagnosis, and  I would like to collect some software logs from you.  Here are the steps:

 

- In the printer setup CD, look for a "utils" folder.  If you ran setup from a web download, open Windows Explorer and type %temp% in the Explorer bar.  Look for a recent folder called "7zS..." (e.g. 7zS1234), and then find the "utils" folder inside.

 

- Look for a file called "HPInstallLogCollector.exe" and run it.  This will save a file called "HPInstallLogFIles.zip" on the desktop.

 

I have requested permissions for you from the forum administrator to post files.  Please attach the "HPInstallLogFiles.zip" here.  Thanks again for your patience.

I work for HP.

Hi, thanks for sending the data.  Can you try this?

- Open Windows Explorer and type   %appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

- You should see a shortcut called "Monitor Ink Alerts - HP Deskjet 1050 J410 series"

- Delete this shortcut

- Restart your PC

Hi thanks for the reply

 

I have tried what you suggested above but no shortcut as you mentioned above

I can only see the application called Drop Box

Hi, thanks for your patience.  Please help me do this:

 

Paste the following into Notepad and save into a file called "log_enable.reg" :-

 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\HP]

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\HP\NG]

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\HP\NG\Logging]

"LogInfoDetailLevel"=dword:00000000

"LogCategories"=dword:3e00fff0

"LogOptions"=dword:7ff80000

"LogFileName"="%HOMEPATH%\\Desktop\\system.log"

"LogParmsPollTime"=dword:0000001e

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HP]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HP\NG]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HP\NG\Logging]

"LogInfoDetailLevel"=dword:00000000

"LogCategories"=dword:3e00fff0

"LogOptions"=dword:7ff80000

"LogFileName"="%HOMEPATH%\\Desktop\\user.log"

"LogParmsPollTime"=dword:0000001e

 

Then similarly paste the following into a file called "log_disable.reg" :-

 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\HP]

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\HP\NG]

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\HP\NG\Logging]

"LogInfoDetailLevel"=dword:00000000

"LogCategories"=dword:00000000

"LogOptions"=dword:00000000

"LogFileName"=""

"LogParmsPollTime"=dword:0000001e

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HP]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HP\NG]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HP\NG\Logging]

"LogInfoDetailLevel"=dword:00000000

"LogCategories"=dword:00000000

"LogOptions"=dword:00000000

"LogFileName"=""

"LogParmsPollTime"=dword:0000001e

 

Now double click "log_enable.reg" to import the settings into the registry. 

Run the "HP Deskjet 1050 J410 series" desktop shortcut until you get the error.

You should see a file called "user.log" on your desktop.  You may also see a "system.log".

 

Now double click "log_disable.reg" to disable logging.

Please attach the log files here.

hi sorry but I do not see system.log on my desktop

user.log only

It's ok.  Can you attach the user.log here.

Please remember to disable logging after that.  Thanks.
