I have an older printer and need to download a generic PCL4 driver that would work from Windows 10 (64bit). Any suggestions? I can only find PCL5 and PCL6 generic drivers. Thank you;

Hi @kschroe ,

 

It will be better to know the printer model you are looking for.

PCL 4 was used for only 4 models of HP printers and was quickly replaced with PCL5. As printers using PCL4 are antiques you are going to be hard pressed to find a driver to run them. But as requested already, please post the model of printer.
