            Hello RAYMOND59,

 

You will have to uninstall the old driver and install the new full HP driver.

Uninstall the old driver in Control Panel, "Programs and Features", then remove

all occurrences in Program and Program X86, in Control Panel, right click on your old printer (If it is still there,

chances are that it is no longer there) ''Remove'' if it is present.

Restart the PC, connect the printer to the mains, connect a USB cord on the PC side, on the printer you

will connect during installation ONLY when prompted.

Start installing your printer, by right-clicking on the Setup. downloaded driver exe, installed ''en

as administrator'', let the installation take place, at the end, restart the PC.

To create a shortcut on the Windows desktop, open Control Panel, right-click on your

new printer, create shortcut, on the desktop, yes.

A new shortcut has been created on the Windows desktop.

Turn on your printer, print a test page. That's it, your printer is working again.
