Hello Chrisbettney-10,

 

Thank you for posting your concern,

HP DesignJet 500 Driver for Windows 11

To install the HP DesignJet 500 driver on Windows 11, follow these steps to find and download the appropriate driver:

  1. Visit the HP Support Website:

  2. Search for Your Printer Model:

    • Input "HP DesignJet 500" into the search field to navigate to the support page for your specific printer model.
  3. Select Windows 11 as Your Operating System:

    • Once on the printer's support page, you may need to specify your operating system. Choose Windows 11 from the list to ensure you access compatible drivers.
  4. Download the Driver:

    • Look for a basic driver/genric for win 8 0r win 7  or universal print driver that supports Windows 11. If a specific Windows 11 driver is not available, you may use a universal print driver that is compatible with many printer models. Since its EOSL unit, we dont have updated print driver for Win 11.
  5. Install the Driver:

    • Once downloaded, locate the driver file in your Downloads folder or the designated download location.
    • Double-click the file and follow the installation instructions displayed on the screen.
  6. Restart Your Computer:

    • After installation, restart your computer to ensure that the driver is properly configured.
  7. Test Your Printer:

    • Print a test page to confirm that the driver installation has been successful and your printer is functioning as expected.

If you encounter any difficulties or the specific Windows 11 driver isn't available, consider reaching out to HP support for further assistance or exploring Windows' built-in drivers to see if they support your printer model.
