HP LaserJet Pro CP1525nw Color Printer

HP CP1525NW printer installs in Windows as CP1520 series PCL6.   I am using Windows 10, 64 bit.  I have tried many of HPs resources and just can't seem to install the printer as it should be.

that is not unexpected behaviour. the 1525 is part of the 1520 series and it appears the driver is being identified by series and not actual model number. If this printer works, this is nothing to worry about or spend time trying to resolve.

Thanks Repairatrooper. That makes sense and now I can move ahead with setting it up.

However, the support for wireless printing does not appear to be in the PCL6 driver.  The USB interface works fine, but not the wireless.

Thank you !!!  Now I feel better knowing it's not just me, not being able to print wirelessly.
