Symptom: HP LaserJet Pro 400 M401dn (CF278A) printer has a "79 service error Turn off then on" error message. Then continuously reboot and initialize.

How to install HP Laserjet 1010 / 1012 / 1015 Printer Driver on Windows 8.1 and Windows 10

HP LaserJet 1010 not supported in Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 and Windows 10

Workaround:
(It works with Windows 8.1, but I got a comment, that it works with Windows 10 as well.)

-Download the HP LaserJet 1012 Host Based (Windows Vista 32 or 64 bit) driver from here.

-Extract the selected driver into a folder.

Follow next steps (and see the pics below):

Devices and Printers
Add Printer
The printer that I want isn't listed

Add a local printer or network printer with manual settings
Use an existing port - choose DOT4_001 (HP Print device)
Next
Click on "Have disk..." (and browse folder where you extracted drivers before)
Choose "hpc1015w", than click open
Click on your printer type
Nex, next, finish :)

Print a test page.

How to install Konica Minolta Bizhub 211 printer on Windows 8.1 64 bit, if the printer is shared on a Windows 7 32 bit?

To do:
Install a Konica Minolta Bizhub 211 printer on Windows 8.1 64 bit, if the printer is shared on a Windows 7 32 bit operting system.
Driver at Konica Minolta download site for Windows 8.1 is not correct for this task.

Solution:
Download Konica Minolta Bizhub 211 GDI printer driver for Windows 7 64 bit.
Unzip driver folder.


(If the above link is broken, see the correct driver on the picture.)
http://www.konicaminolta.eu/en/business-solutions/support/download-center.html?ref=dlptl



Add this additional 64 bit driver to the printer properties on Windows 7 32 bit system.
Right click on Konica Minolta Bizhub 211 printer icon.
Choose "Properties", then "Share" tab.
On "Share" tab click on "Additional drivers".
Choose x64 (mark it).
Then add the driver from the formerly unzipped directory.
(Press "yes" and "Accept" if you get a security question.)






You have to disable digital signature control on Windows 8.1.
See how to disable digital signature control on Windows 8.1 on How-To-Geek
Then install Konica Minolta Bizhub 211 as "Network printer".



If the user account and password is different on the two systems, you can set it this way (control usserpasswords2).

HP printer only prints the first copy of multiple copies

Problem:
HP printer only prints the first copy of multiple copies, it doesn't matter how many copies were set on.

Solution:
Remove printer driver, then install a new one.

In this case it was the HP Photosmart D7160 Windows XP driver.

In other cases, and different printer type:
Click Devices and Printers
Right click your Laserjet Printer
Select Printer Properties
Click the Device Settings Tab
Scroll down to the bottom
If necessary, expand Installable Options
Click on Mopier Mode
Select Disable in the selection box that appears
Click Apply
You will now get multiple copies.

KONICA MINOLTA Di152 Windows 7 and Windows 8 driver


I had to share a KONICA MINOLTA Di152 printer.
It was necessary that Windows 7 desktops also could print to it.
The Di152 hasn't have Windows 7 or Windows 8 driver, only for Windows 2000/XP.
However the Di152 operates with Di470 Windows 7 or Windows 8 driver as well.
It is true by default Di470 printer is not visible in the list, you must press a Windows Update to update the printers list, and after that appears Di470 printer, and it can be installed.

Another solution: if the Di152 appears as "unknown device" try to "update driver" (it was suggestion in a comment on my hungarian blog).
