Hi @Mino1788

 

Yes, the built-in driver should work. If it doesn't, try the 990c driver. 

 

Let me know how that pans out 🙂

Hi @Mino1788

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you with the printer driver. 

 

Please try these steps - HP Printers - Installing and Using the Windows Built-in Print Driver
 

Or, you may also try adding the 990c printer driver -

 

1. On your keyboard press both the Windows key and R key together.

2. In the window that opens, type in the words "Control Printers" and then click OK. This will open the Devices and Printers window.

3. Right click on your printer and select Printer properties.

4. In the new window, make sure you are viewing the Ports tab, if not then click on Ports at the top. In the Ports tab, locate the name of the port that is currently checked. Write the name of this port on a piece of paper as we will need it later on. When you are done, close this window.

5. Back in the Devices and Printers window, click on Add a printer at the top of the window.

6. In the window that opens, click The printer that I want isn't listed.

7. Click on Add a local printer or network printer with manual settings. Click Next.

8. Click on Windows Update.

9. Once the Windows Update is done, click on HP under Manufacturer and click on HP Deskjet 990c under Printers. Click Next.

10. Give the printer a name.

11. On the next window, make sure Do not share this printer is checked. Click Next.

12. Leave the Set as the default printer option unchecked. Click Finish. 

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
