I need to Install Printer driver software to my HP printer 5850 All-in-one

Hi Afreen2004

 

To install the printer driver for your HP Smart Tank 5850 All-in-One printer, follow the standard HP setup process:

 

1.Download HP Smart or Software Driver Pack:Prerequisite.

Go to the official HP Support website (support.hp.com) or open the HP Smart app from the Microsoft Store (Windows) or Mac App Store (macOS). Search for HP Smart Tank 5850 to download the recommended software installer package.

 

2.Connect Your Printer to Power and Wi-Fi:Preparation.

Ensure your HP Smart Tank 5850 is turned on and connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your computer (or connected via a USB cable if performing a wired installation).

 

3.Run the Installer:Setup.

Open the downloaded software file or launched HP Smart app, follow the on-screen prompt to detect the HP Smart Tank 5850, and accept the driver installation package.

 

4.Print a Test Page:Verification.

After setup completes, print a test page from your computer settings to verify the driver is working properly.

 

If you cannot find a standalone driver download file on the HP website, it is usually because HP requires using the HP Smart application or Windows Update to install drivers for the HP Smart Tank 580/585 series.

Try these alternatives to install the driver without relying on a direct file download:

 

1.Option A: Download HP Smart Direct Setup:Recommended.
  1. Visit 123.hp.com or hpsmart.com/download directly in your browser.

  2. Enter HP Smart Tank 585 as your model.

  3. Click Install HP Smart. The app will automatically fetch and install the correct print and scan drivers for your system during setup.

 

2.Option B: Use Windows Built-in Drivers:Windows 10 / 11.
  1. Connect the printer to your PC using a USB cable or connect it to the same Wi-Fi network.

  2. Open Settings on your PC and go to Bluetooth & devices > Printers & scanners.

  3. Click Add device. Windows will automatically detect the Smart Tank 585 and install the basic driver via Windows Update.

 

3.Verification:Confirm driver status.

Open Printers & scanners on your PC. Look for HP Smart Tank 580-590 series listed as "Ready" or "Connected".

 

I hope the above is helpful
