HP 9025E and Windows 7 Pro

[CheapDad]

I purchased an HP 9025E. I'm trying to find a driver for the printer to make it compatible with my HP Z230 which runs Windows 7 Pro. Any suggestions on how I could make this happen without having to upgrade the operating system up? Personally hesitate about upgrading the operating system due to some of the software I use may not be compatible with a Windows 10 or 11 upgrade. 

Thanks

Hello Dragon-Fur

I downloaded the driver from the link you posted and it goes through the process but fails to set up the printer. I've attached a screenshot of where it stops. FYI: I've restarted the computer a few times and tried it again but it still fails. Thanks

Hello Dragon-Fur,

It finally worked when I exit out of the setup by clicking the X on the top right corner of the screenshot I posted. The next screen asked if I wanted to set up the printer driver only. I clicked yes and it downloaded the print driver for the HP 9025e. The printer is now my Default printer on my Windows 7 Pro CPU. It seems to be working as I've printed a few things off my computer before posting this. Thank you once again Dragun-Fur. 😃

You are welcome.

Apologies for the late return -- a bunch of perfectly legitimate email notifications were snagged by my over enthusiastic security program and splashed into spam folder.  Because it generally "does not happen", I hadn't checked for a while.  Rats.

True - there does appears to be a "glitch" in the installation package -- and possibly not only for your OS.

I've reported the odd-ball behavior due to my own recent experiences and another customer's input -- it's possible we'll see something useful come of my request, though these things tend to take longer than many of us think is "fast enough".

Thanks for posting the image.

I've added your experience to my request packet.
