Hi @berenger2,

Welcome to HP Support Community.  

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

Here's a general guide on how to install the HP Photosmart C4280 printer on your Windows 11 PC.

Check Compatibility: Ensure that the HP Photosmart C4280 printer is compatible with Windows 11. You can do this by visiting the HP website and checking the printer's compatibility with Windows 11.

Connect the Printer: Connect your HP Photosmart C4280 printer to your PC using a USB cable. Make sure the printer is powered on and properly connected.

Automatic Driver Installation:

• In most cases, Windows will try to automatically install the necessary drivers for the printer.
• Windows Update might take care of downloading and installing the basic printer drivers.
• Wait for a few moments to see if Windows prompts you about driver installation. Follow the on-screen instructions if prompted.

Manual Driver Installation: If Windows doesn't automatically install the drivers, or if you prefer to do it manually:

• Visit the official HP Support website (https://support.hp.com/) and search for the HP Photosmart C4280 printer.
• Look for the "Drivers" or "Downloads" section for your printer model.
• Select your operating system (Windows 11) and download the appropriate driver package.

Install the Drivers:

• Once the driver package is downloaded, run the installer.
• Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the driver installation.
• During the installation process, you might be prompted to connect the printer. If so, connect the printer to your PC via USB.

Complete the Setup:

• After the driver installation is complete, restart your computer.
• Once your computer has restarted, check if the HP Photosmart C4280 is listed as an available printer in the Devices and Printers section of your Control Panel.

Set as Default Printer:

• Right-click on the HP Photosmart C4280 printer and select "Set as default printer" if you want to use it as your default printer.

Test Printing:

• Open a document or image and try to print a test page to make sure the printer is working properly.

I hope this helps. 
 

Take care and have a good day.
