2. How do I ask an HP human a question? I've just spent an hour looking through their manuals, virtual assistants etc.

3. Where on the website is this information available?

From HP > CAUTION

Recently, HP has seen an increased number of third-party support websites selling HP driver downloads or diagnostic tools. Many of these websites use the HP trademark symbol and claim to be official HP distributors.

 

If your product supports your operating system, HP offers your driver and software at no additional cost through the HP website.

 

Use caution when dealing with any website that asks you to pay for HP driver downloads or tools that claim to diagnose your HP products. These websites might not be affiliated with HP in any way.

 

Do not install BIOS updates from a motherboard manufacturer's website. Only install BIOS updates from HP. Installing BIOS updates from the motherboard manufacturer can prevent the computer from accepting an HP system recovery. This could result in a loss of data.

Doh! Why couldn’t I find that?!

Thanks!

You are welcome.

 

The "extra" information is found in the datasheet for the device.

 

Use your favorite browser, search for the model name (as defined by HP) and add the search word "datasheet.

 

Does not work for "everything" - regional differences (searching in the USA) may not find data for devices only sourced in certain regions, for example.

 

Happy Printing.
