Hello There.

I have followed the procedure to install drivers for my printer. But when i add the printer from my computer and update all the listed drivers unfortunately, among all the big amount of drivers, the One i Need is absent. I, also, can t find them on the hp web site. I also have tried to get the IP address from the printer but when I print the configuration page or the wireless network test page the value for the IP is not applicable. Do you have any idea where I can get those drivers?

Welcome to the HP Community.

 

The printer software is no longer listed as available.

 

Product introduced in late May 2011

 

Instead, you are guided to use the Windows print drivers.

Windows print drivers provide for basic print function - no scanning.
