Hi My HP3250 printer stopped printing suddenly. the job was left in the print job. I deleted the printer and now when I plug in the usb cable XP starts to auto install the HP3340 not 3250, I only have the 3250 connected and never had another printer in the 3*** range ,printer and stops to say the printer not installed properly . I have used the proper disk . If I try installing it from the cd nothing happens. Another strange thing I noticed is that when i startup in SAFE Mode a message appears saying the printer cannot be installed. I also noticed the .exe icons on the CD look like the old dos icons and don't have the 'engine' icon. I have the latest anti virus installed - no viruses Pls help Thanks

Hi Leonla, When you start in safe mode, not all icons will display as they would normally, so don't worry to much about that. However I'm confused over the wrong CD drivers on the install CD issue. I'm assuming you have a hp pavilion 3250 desktop PC (uk)? If so download drivers for appropriate Operating System on the link below: - HP 3250 Desktop PC Drivers (NB: There are firmware driver upgrades supporting Windows 98 & 95 only). Compatibility issues? You can try typing the exact model name and number on the link below if I got it wrong : - Click & Fill In Product Information ER4S3R. Hope That Helps.
