I recently purcahsed a new laptop and I tried installing my current printer (HP Deskjet 4235 all in one) and I was unable to do so because it doesn't support the new Window 7 version. But do you have ay other way or program that I can install so that I can use this printer rather than buying a new one from elsewhere? Please help me inatall this current laptop to my new Windows 7 laptop.

Which Deskjet F4200 do you have? And which Windows 7 are you running 32 or 64 bit?

Hi

I have windows vista 64 bit, version 6.0, service pack 2 and Deskjet F4200  and I have been having trouble with this printer. First, the scanner stopped in the middle of a scan and the printer the same....later, it did not print at all...I unistalled and installed again the software but it keeps saying the printer is off, or the cable is not plugged...then the troubleshooting prompt me to "Click to download and install the new driver from the Hewlett-Packard website" where I download  DJ_AIO_06_F2400_NonNet_Basic_Win_enu_140_175.exe but the installation gets stuck in step 3 of 4

 

Thanks

well what you can do is just to skip the installation of the driver and try to go to

 

start > devices and printers > and perform add a printer

select local printer

 

IF it will asked you what type of port choose USB001 and hit next;

look for the hp folder on the field of manufacturers and choose any printer that would be closely related to your deskjet; next

follow all the prompts of that add a printer wizard and it should let you to at least print;

 

note: what you are doing there is to achieve a printing driver only so most probably if your printer has scanning function or anything it wont work; basically this is just a work around.

Thanks Kudo, but my printer appears in control panel/printers and it has a check; but when I plug it, the PC says  USB device not recognized. I have unplugged and restarted the computer, turned  the printer off and on and restarted the PC. 

I tried the "Hardware Issues: Try the HP Hardware Diagnostic Utility"   but at executing it did not find the printer
