Has HP discontinued drivers and toner for the Deskjet 6988?

[GPSmith1960]

Hi.  I've been given a Deskjet 6988 and would like to set it up, which my friend called a reliable workhorse.

But HP appears to offer no drivers or toner.

Does HP no longer offer drivers and toner for this model?

Thanks.

The biggest problem is that there are indeed no print drivers offered for Windows 10.

Instead you are directed to use the Windows 10 print drivers.

Standard print drives provide basic print but no scanning options.

Which Cartridges Work with My HP Printer?

Looks like HP Store or Amazon might have (at least) the black cartridges...

I did not check the color cartridges.

HP Store - 96 Black cartridge
