Need driver for C3150

[BasicPrintNScan]

Hello,

I recently got a new laptop and am trying to set up my trusty, old C3150 all-in-one printer via USB. Unfortunately, my computer is having issues recognizing it (says "Driver is unavailable") and when I googled to download the driver, I get sent to a page that gives me the option of (1) downloading the Print and Scan Doctor, or (2) linking to instructions for how to download the driver using Windows. Since Windows recognizes that I have a printer/scanner hooked up, but not what it is, option (2) is not helpful. When I downloaded the Doctor and went through its process, it sent me back to the same, original page that listed those two options. I tried downloading HP Smart, and while it recognized the printer in one step, it crapped out when it came to actually setting up the printer. I tried looking through previous forum answers, but they either link back to that same one, unhelpful page, or to a 404 page. (I have some screen caps, but there doesn't appear to be an add photo/image button on the forum, just add video.)

Even if I had the install disc anymore (I don't), my new computer doesn't have an optical drive. Is there a direct link where I can download the driver(s) needed to run the C3150 on Windows 10? The following link is NOT HELPFUL: https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-photosmart-c3100-all-in-one-printer-series/11465... .

Thank you.
