Deskjet 3755
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have been fighting this for two days and finally resorted to asking for help. You know its a guy thing like asking for directions.

I have a Deskjet 3755 that has worked fine till sometime in the last couple of months, it gets used very little so I don't know when it stopped working.

I prints fine from a Mac so I know the wifi is working and I can print the printers test page but noting I try to send gets printed.

I have uninstalled and updated to the latest software from the HP site (3 times) and run the HP diagnostic program numerous times. When I try to "install a new printer" in Windows it finds the printer but says drivers not available.

I then uninstall everything and start all over. I have checked the HP compatibility webpage and it looks like this printer is good with Windows 10 although maybe that page has not been updated since Windows did its last update.

Any help would be appreciated.
