Driver for HP Color Laserjet 1600 Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit

[Carolina_Guy]

When will a driver be made available for the HP Color  Laserjet 1600 for Windows 10 64 bit?  It printed fine with Windows 8.1, but since the updgrade to Windows 10 it will not print at all.

Thanks,

JN

I have answered my own question or found a temporary fix until an official driver is released. After a few hits and misses with different HP Color Laserjet Drivers,  I downloaded the  HP LaserJet USB (DOT4) communication driver for Windows 8 and Higher (64-bit) located at the below link.  It is listed for the HP Color LaserJet 3700 Printer but it worked for the HP Color Laserjet 1600 as well.  Hope this will help someone.

I downloaded the softwear you suggested but still I get "error". It won't print. What else did you do but download. I've tried everything in settings... HP support sais that HP Color LaserJet 1600 will never work with Windows 10!

I had the same issue again. I recently had to reformat my hard drive and I received the same error message. This is what I did: 1) Disconnect the printer USB cord from the printer. 2) Open device and printers, right click on the printer and click remove device. 3) Go to the HP website and download the driver for Windows 8 32 or 64 bit dependin on your system) 4) Once the driver is downloaded, right click and run the installer as the administrator. 5) After installation finishes, reconnect the printer. Windows should detect that you gave connected a new device and go through a driver installation. Once that is complete, see if it works and let me know.

Yes absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much! I love my Color LaserJet 1600 and really hated the idea that it might not work with my new Windows 10 computer. I'm so glad I didn't give up trying. Thanks again!

I don't know what they did with that option.  I have looked and cannot locate it as well.
