hp designjet 500 c7769b

l have an hp design jet 500 c7769b, l am finding it difficult to find a working drive for the this  design jet on windows 10   64bit. Now can't print drawings from the design jet and it is lying idle in the office.

 

l checked  the devices and printers connected to my machine it say driver unavailable as shown in the screen shoot below

I had the same problem a few weeks ago but didn't have the time to resolve it. Did this solution work for you?

By which I mean the Vista Driver rather than the nonsense of converting to pdf files.
