Printer wont install fully on windows ME pc
Hi, I tried to in stall from the CD the softweaaare for my HP 750 series all
in one printer. Installation went good. I restarted the pc and then plugged in my printer to the USB port then connected it to the electricall outlet then that beige and green box popped up saying that if I wanted to install the driver, etc..........It was checked under recommended so it started to search and was no where to be found: Well it said that it was unable to do it.I tried exploring the CD and it just doesnt make a difference what I do it wont work. Isnt it true that after a restart of an installation, set up continues and you may registrate every thingand use the printer right away? WHy all this commotion with ME. BTW, according to the HP instructions, printer is compatible with ME. what can I do. thanks -- Thanks so very much for your help-! ! ! ! |

Marcy, I would suggest that you look here :-
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/d...wareCategor y and scroll down to about 2/3 down the page to the section :- HP PSC 700 series ......... Win98, Me or 2000 It describes the method of installation 'slightly' differently to the way you explained. BTW - It might be useful to do a System Restore and roll-back to before you first tried to install your all-in-one BUT do so AFTER you've uninstalled the new software and BEFORE you re-install it again. In other words, during Step 9 at the point where you remove the CD and before re-inserting it again. And, I ASS-U-ME that you are using the correct CD (The one designated for WinMe) If you still have problems then re-read the whole of the HP article - there's an awful lot there!
