I need driver for Designjet 500 C7770B for windows 10 64 bit

Hello Turkay,

 

Thank you for your query.

 

The HP DesignJet 500 printer model (C7770B) requires specific drivers to function correctly with Windows 10 (64-bit). However, it's important to note that HP has limited support for this older printer model on newer operating systems.

Here’s what you can do:

  1. HP Universal Print Driver: You may try using the HP Universal Print Driver as an alternative. It is designed for compatibility with a wide range of HP printers and can often work for models that do not have dedicated drivers for newer operating systems.

  2. Built-in Windows Driver: Sometimes, Windows 10 may have a built-in driver that offers basic print functionality with older printers. You can connect the printer to the computer and let Windows search for a suitable driver automatically.

  3. Manual Setup:

    • Go to "Printers & Scanners" in Windows settings.
    • Click on "Add a printer or scanner" and let it search for network or connected printers.
    • If the DesignJet 500 is not found, select "The printer that I want isn't listed."
    • You'll have an option to add a printer using a TCP/IP address or host name, or to add a local printer or network printer manually. You can also try with print driver for windows 7-8, 64 bit if that works.
  4. Visit the HP Support Website: Occasionally, there might be updates or community forums that provide additional support or workarounds for legacy printers on newer operating systems.

For the most effective and stable experience, it is recommended to check the HP support page or contact HP support to see if there have been any updates or alternative solutions provided for the DesignJet 500 series on Windows 10 (64-bit).
