Yes, attempt to use Windows 7 drivers... may not work.

 

or

 

Wait for Windows 8 official release later this month and check back at that time. Windows 8 drivers may not be immediately available for many devices and some devices may never be supported.

and-other/m-p/1856247/highlight/true#M703

1. If yes, you have to wait, driver(s) will come soon.

2. If no, you have to wait longer and driver(s) may not come.

Regards.
ps Few printers can see Windows 8 drivers on their download sites now.

I just purchased a computer that is equipped with Windows 8.

My HP Office3 Jet 4620 disc for installation will not work.

Is there a program to download that will enable me to 

use my printer?

The best way to find your printer software for Win7 or Win8 is to utilize the HP Printer Install Wizard.
