HP Photosmart 8150 Photo Printer
Microsoft Windows 11

My photosmart 8150 printer does not work in windows 11, and HP does not list it as supported in windows 11.  Does HP plan on adding support or are there any other options to keep my printer

Welcome to the HP Community Forum.

 

 

Tough news:

The printer is not supported in Windows 11

Windows 11 support for the printer will not be added later.

 

If you want to continue using the printer,

If you have a computer on which you are running Windows 10,

then, at this writing:

Windows 10 supports using the printer with the built-in Windows print drivers.

 

Reference - Windows 10

HP Printers - Installing and Using the Windows Built-in Print Driver

Scan?  See Section FAQ > How do I use the printer functions with the built-in driver?

Example

Scan documents and photos: Complete scan jobs with a Windows app that works with the built-in driver.

  • Windows Fax and Scan: In Windows, search for and open Windows Fax and Scan. Click New Scan, and then select your printer.
  • Windows Paint: In Windows, search for and open Paint. Click FileFrom scanner or camera.
  • Windows Scan app: In Windows, search for and open the Windows Scan app. If it is not listed, go to Windows Scan (in English) to install it.
