Installing a C3180 printer Evelyn H 7/6/2007 6:46:02 PM How do I get my HP C3180 printer installed and working with Windows Vista? I have tried for over 1 week now. HP was no help, and finally bailed out on me. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Installing a C3180 printer "Jupiter Jones [MVP]" <jones_jupiter[ at ]hotnomail.com> 7/7/2007 12:20:10 AM Evelyn; Are you using the latest Windows Vista drivers from HP" http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os=2093&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&product=1146331&lang=en It seems the latest drivers are dated March 2007. It also appears you can order the drivers on CD for free if you live in the U.S.A. -- Jupiter Jones [MVP] http://www3.telus.net/dandemar http://www.dts-l.org "Evelyn H" <EvelynH[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:17B4FE8E-BB16-4421-914A-0DB22870EF22[ at ]microsoft.com...

Re: Installing a C3180 printer "John Hanley" <jphanley[ at ]ix.netcom.com> 7/7/2007 12:52:17 PM I recently installed my HP C4180 (probably similar to the C3180), using the installation disk & following the instructions that came with the printer. During the course of the installation, it will check the status of your software and look for relevant driver updates on the HP web site. It was fairly straightforward. They make a strong point about following the steps exactly; e.g. not connecting the printer to the computer until Setup tells you do, etc. Do you have the installation disk and the Basics Guide that come with the printer?
