Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,

 

I am trying to find which software or driver I will need to download so for my Offficejet Pro 8610 printer so that I can install the respective HP Printer Assistant on a second desktop that is connected to the printer.  I need for the scanning options as well as to monitor ink levels.  

 

Below is a screen shot of the software that I am trying to find.

 

Thank you.
