Need Download for HP Essential Software version 5.10.5.14

[Momo6]

I am an IT pro managing about 600 Macs with various HP Printers.  In the past it was possible to download a package that had drivers and software for multiple printers, which made it easy to automate the installation of HP Printers across many machines.  Now it seems like that is not possible, the software/drivers have to be pulled down by manually using HP Easy Start.  That may work well for an individual user but in a situation like mine it is completely unworkable to manually install every HP printer on every Mac we have using the Easy Start app.

Specifically I require the HP Essential Software version 5.10.5.14 package.  Does anyone have a link to the package?  Has anyone had any luck requesting this from HP?  It has to exist somewhere on the web because the Easy Start app pulls it down.

It would be so nice if HP made their driver packages easily available again instead of being obfuscated by the East Start app.  With the current state of affairs HP printers are becoming very difficult to support and our unit has started recommending using printers from other manufacturers.

Thanks

Same issue here. I ended up using the Easy Start application and fs_usage to hunt down installer package when downloading then hard link it. These packages should be available someplace for admins to download.
