I use Windows 7 and i recently tested a machine like on my laptop and had no problem with the driver.Try to uninstall driver and reset computer so that the printer installs automatic;y through found new hardware and try again.Hope this will solve your problem.

Hello Everyone ! thanks for helping me, there was two problems with mine hp laserjet 1010 printer, 
1) Driver not install easilly (because i use lpt port)

2) after installation if i share it, then on others system not install the printer, stop the print spooler, etc.

 

when you told me doing uninstall and again install it, then by chance i try to install Universal driver pcl 5, and secondly i used DOT 4 port,  doing this method printer driver easily installed and running smoothly on network/ sharing mode too...

Problem solved... 🙂 with happy ending.... 😉
