Product: HP Color LaserJet Pro M255dw
Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP

Hi, I bought an HP Color laserJet Pro M255dw to install on a PC with Windows XP, I downloaded the driver from the HP site but during the installation, when I connect the printer, I get an "invalid handle" error. How can I install the printer?

 

Driver: Basic_Webpack_x86-44.11.2784-LJM255-M256_UWWL_Basicx86_Webpack

 

Thanks
