Trying to locate driver for HP DesignJet 750C Plus - I have no disk

[SideRoadStudio]

I have recently inherited an HP DesignJet 750C Plus.  Its still in great condition and I believe works.  I bought a new cable for it this week and foolishly assumed I would be able to download a driver for it on the HP website.  Due to the age of the machine it seems to be no longer supported.  Somebody help!  I need a driver download for this product or it is completely useless!   ANd it case it wasn't clear, I do not have the original CD.  HELP!

Hi There. Please try THIS. Hope this helps. It seems drivers are up to Win2K for Win support.

Try the link below. It  may work with your printer since you should have the gl2 language. Keep in mind how the printer is connected to the computer since new computers do not have parallel ports so most users need to use a usb to parallel adapter so make sure it is compatible with your os.

Thanks, but this was thevery first thing I tried.  There are no links to actually download this here.

Unfortuunately I can't get this to work...maybe I'm doing something wrong?  I'm following the instructions, but there is no file ending in .inf like the instructions state.  So lost.  Really hoping to be able to use this plotter!!!

HP really screwed the instructions on this one. You need to look for a directory "win-x64-hpgl2-drv" The directory will be without the quotes and on mine it was located in the downloads directory. In that directory will be inf file you need.

Thank you all for your help.  The universal driver did the trick.  As of tonight I have a functional plotter!

I am currently having the same issue that you had with the out of date disk. Can you please give me step by step instructions on what you did? I would really apreciate it.

Thank you.

I am having the same issue. I have a design Jet 750c Plus and the disk is too outdated to use. Can you please give me step by step instructions as to what drivers I need and what they are called and how to install them? I would reall apreciate it.
