SUCCESS!!:manvery-happy:

After a bit more messing about i noticed that there were two USB001 ports showing. One was a virtual printer port and one wasnt.

I deleted both of them, reinstalled the drivers and re-connected the printer and lo and behold it burst into life like there had never been any issue with it.

 

There are alot of reports of similar problems - printer connected but nothing prints - but the causes seem to be inconsistent.

 

I think mine may have originally been due to having a laptop connected to the home network via wifi when installing Win7 which may have established some sort of connection to the printer.

But even after deleting / uninstalling everything it still couldnt seem to unwind the trail.

 

Very strange. Many thanks to all who have tried to help.

You beat me to it:smileywink: I discovered this same issue when working with another printer. After some digging and research, have reached the conclusion that there maybe a  port issue with some printers in regards to win7.

 

Glad to see you are back up and running. Will make a note of this in regards to this printer as well as the other one I just discovered.

There no driver for windows 7 till mid November.

 

I have  installed device driver for laserjet 1020 on windwos 7, here is the method for installing driver in windows 7 for laserjet 1020.

 

1. 1st of all download laserjet 1020 basic printer driver for windows vista. you can down it from this link

 

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=439320&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&lang=en&cc=us

 

2. after downloading driver for vista extract it even exe file with winrar and then go to device manager and then HP laserjet 1020 which is shown as unkown device and right click on it and after that update driver

 

3.  and after that go to folder where extarct vista driver exe and select it .

 

note. i did not run exe file.

 

 

Thanks for reading. hope it will work for you

 

4. and it will be installed without any problem like me.

 

take care all.
