How do I use HP Photosmart 8150 software with Windows 7?

I recently bought a new PC that uses Windows 7.  When I purchased my HP Photosmart 8150 several years ago (and used Windows XP), it came with software that could be used for importing pictures, editing, cropping, printing different sizes, etc.  That software is not compatible with Windows 7.  Is there a patch or upgrade out there that I can download to get this up and running again?

Your printer can be used with Windows 7 as the basic driver is included in the operating system. Some older printers are not compatible with Windows 7 at all.

 

If you want a printer with software that has all the bells and whistles you will, unfortunately, have to upgrade to a newer model.
