HP Photosmart C6380 All-in-One Printer

After a new install from a windows update 22H2 my photosmart c6380 (an all-in-one printer) was only recognised as a printer by windows. The original setupfile stopped after two screens.

I have a laptop also with windows 10 22H2 which still has the printer and scanner functions.

Can i copy the drivers from the laptop to my PC ? 

Using the program "Doubledriver" does not work.

Please help me

Thannk you, I tried but the result was exactly the same as to the installation I got and also found on the internet. It stopped after two screens. Also the size: 205.163 Mb is the same.

When I started the file first it extract and after approval it stops.

Thank you I watched the video and applied the (several) steps: I  got an error that said oem29.inf was not deleted because it couldn't. /access prohibited. Aftr that I rebooted and tried via the file you named to install the printer. But like before the process stopped after given my approval on the third screen.

I reinstalled only the printer (function) via the add printer or scannervia the windows installation. But like before not the HP scanner of the Photosmart C6380 was installed.

 

Sorry but no positive reaction
