Hi there,
I was given an old printer (HP Photosmart C4480), but wasn't given a USB cable nor a set up CD-ROM (which is what I think you need to install the printer, right?).
I can easily order a USB cable online, but I'm more confused about the driver/set up CD.... I saw in a few posts, that people downloaded drivers for this printer online, but I can't seem to find any. I have a MacBook and the HP or any other website won't show me any available drivers.
Can someone help me please and explain how I can instal the printer properly, so that I can print from my Mac? What do I have to download and where can I find it?
Thank you so much, I'm honestly lost!!

I reviewed your post and I understand that you are looking for printer drivers for your Mac computer.
Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.
HP Photosmart C4480 driver for macOS 10.15 is not available from the HP website or Apple Software Update. However, Gutenprint (formerly called Gimp-Print) provides open-source basic print drivers for many printers that would otherwise not be supported in Mac OS X. To see if your printer is supported, go to Gutenprint drivers for more information.
NOTE: Gutenprint drivers are not supported by HP or Apple.
Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!
