I need help with downloading and installing an HP LaserJet 4050tn.  I downloaded the 4000 series off of HP website then double clicked on the download to instal it, but it asked me if I wanted to unzip it.  I unzipped it but now I don't know where to go from here.

Do not have the printer connected.

 

Go to Settings, Devices and then Printers and Scanners.

 

Power-on the printer and wait for it to come READY.

 

Then connect it to your laptop/desktop.

 

Does it automatically find and install it???

I tried that first but it didn’t work so that is why I am trying to download the driver.
