Welcome to HP support community.
There is no specific driver for your printer model.
However, you can install printer using Windows builtin driver:- Click here
I hope that helps.

It is not working with the built in drivers. When I plug in the printer, it recognizes the device, but take for instance if I look at the devices in Control Panel, it does not see it as a printer. It's listed as unspecified. This is extremely frustrating as It worked prior to the last Windows update. I bought a new print cartridge, and now it doesn't.
