Hello @1941boomer , how are you ?

 

Since it is an older product, you can install it via Windows.

Follow the steps below:

Tried the methods to download the HP C5550 printer to my computer and the message I receive is:  "Driver is unavailable".

 

Does this mean I won't be able to ever use this printer with my computer?

 

Thank you,  Michael

Hello @1941boomer 

 

Unfortunately, the driver is not actually available. The one I sent you was the one for Windows.

 

If it still won't install, what you can do is use it on a slightly older system or previous versions.

 

Best regards
