Hi @Tom5410,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
Finding a printer driver for an older model like the HP J4680 All-In-One can be challenging. Here are a few steps and options you can consider.
HP Official Website (Legacy Drivers)
Sometimes, even if a model is no longer supported, HP may still have legacy drivers available for download. You can try:
- HP Support Page: HP Customer Support - Software and Driver Downloads
- Search for "HP J4680" and see if there are any available drivers, even if they are for older operating systems.
Windows Built-In Drivers
Sometimes, Windows operating systems have built-in drivers that work with older printers.
- Add a Printer: Go to "Devices and Printers" in the Control Panel, select "Add a Printer," and let Windows search for available drivers.
- Windows Update: During the installation process, choose to search Windows Update for drivers.
Linux Compatibility
If you're using Linux, many printers have basic support built into the OS.
- HPLIP (HP Linux Imaging and Printing): Check if your printer is supported by HPLIP HPLIP Website.
Steps to Download and Install Drivers:
- Download the Driver: From any of the above sources, download the appropriate driver for your operating system.
- Install the Driver: Run the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions.
- Connect the Printer: Make sure your printer is connected to your computer via USB or network.
- Test Print: Print a test page to ensure everything is working correctly.
Example Search on HP Website:
- Go to HP Customer Support - Software and Driver Downloads.
- Enter "J4680" in the search box.
- Look for available drivers for older operating systems (e.g., Windows 7, Windows 8).
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
