Hi, 

So we have an old HP Photosmart c4480 printer. It hardly got used for a long while and we're now trying to use it to print off some documents. 

Windows 11 says drivers are missing for it and I can't find drivers for it anywhere. HP's website just says to use windows inbuilt driver installer which doesn't work.

We have the original driver disc that came with the printer but it doesn't seem to be compatible with windows 11 either.

I know the printer can work on 11 because I managed to get it working on my old computer that also had 11 installed on it, I just can't for the life of me remember how

 

Any help is much appreciated
