Hi, I tried to download and install the driver for the LaserJet P2055dn by downloading it from the website here: https://support.hp.com/ch-de/drivers/selfservice/hp-laserjet-p2055-printer-series/3662052
I chose the software universal printer (I'm in Switzerland, thus it's in German)
When I did so, a HP-PARK zip file was downloaded which I unpacked and saved. I am unable, however, to launch it from the saved location. How do I do this?
Also, when I connect my laptop (windows 10 64 bit) to the printer, a window opens up that it found it, but then when I go into settings / printers and scanners / it simply says next to the printer that the driver is not available.
So I am sumped - how can I proceed?

@Manny4444, Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Perform a clean reinstallation of pre-installed HP drivers
- In Windows, search for and open Programs and features
- Select your HP Printer
- Select Uninstall
- In Windows, search for and open Devices and printers
- In the Devices and Printers windows look for your HP printer. If you see it listed right-click on it and choose ‘Delete’ or ‘Remove Device’
- Open up the run command with the “Windows key + R” key combo.
- Type printui.exe /s and click Ok. (Note: there is a space in between “printui.exe” and “/s”)
- Click on the “Drivers” tab
- Look for HP Printer driver. If you see it Click on it and click Remove at the bottom
- Select Ok
- Select Apply and Ok on the Print Server Properties windows
- Close Devices and Printers, restart the computer.
Click here to download the HP Full-featured driver.
Once downloaded, make sure to run the file to start the installation and follow the on-screen instructions.
Try printing.
