HP Deskjet F4240 All-in-One Printer

My 85 year old mother has an HP Deskjet F4240 printer.  I have purchased a new computer for her but she insists on using this printer.  I am trying to use it by plugging into a USB. I have downloaded the Smart Install and everything else HP suggests, but it will not install this computer.  I even went to 123.hp.com/setup. It recognized the printer and I thought it would download, but it sent me back the smart application, and once again into this loop of never finding the software. How can I install the software for her?

 

Thank you.
