I reviewed your post and I understand that you unable to print and getting a driver not available error.

In order that I may provide you with an accurate solution, I will need a few more details and I would appreciate if you could, perhaps elaborate on your concern.

 

  • When was the last time the printer was working fine?
  • What is the operating system you are using?
  • How is the printer connected to PC? (USB/Wireless)
  • Have you made any software or hardware changes on the computer?
  • Have you performed any troubleshooting steps before posting?

 

Meanwhile, I recommend you to download and install the driver for your printer from the below link.
