Photosmart C4480 driver for Windows 11

[hillmom1]

I see links for it in several answered questions for the C4480 Photosmart All In One Printer for Windows 11, but the links don't work.  Please post again and maybe make sure it's permanent.  TIA

Welcome to the HP English Community --

There is not HP driver software for this printer and Windows 10 or Windows 11.

The user is directed to install the Windows Built-in Drivers -

The Windows drivers provide for basic print function.

The directive to use the Windows Built-in Drivers is here:

Software and Drivers for HP Photosmart C4480 All-in-One Printer  

Operating System set to Windows / Windows 11

After the printer passes beyond the point of supporting even the Windows Built-in drivers, that information will be removed from the printer's website support pages.

There is no way to prevent this from happening - eventually the printer will be Retired and all HP documentation will be removed.

Perhaps consider downloading whatever you want to keep from the product's home pages.

Built-in Driver

Old driver is Gone

We see occasional questions about printers for which full driver software installation packages are no longer listed for current (or older) versions of Windows.

The full driver printer software for this printer is no longer listed as available from HP.

When available for the printer and a supported version of Windows, install the Windows Built-in print drivers.

When installed, the Windows print driver provides basic print function.
