My printer will not remotely print from my laptop - error says that the driver is not available to download.  I have been unable to download the driver on many tries.  I can print from my iPhone and iPad, just not laptop. Trying to reinstall it needs the WPS pin number.

Good Day. A warm welcome to the HP community. 

 

I reviewed the case regarding issues with the computer crashes randomly. I will be delighted to assist you here.  

 

Superb description and terrific observations made before posting. Kudos to you for that. 😉 

 

Please try these steps: 

 

• On the main control panel screen, find and select setup. • Find and select network setup. • Select wireless. • Select wireless setup wizard. • Follow the steps on the screen to select your network. • On your PC, search for and open Devices and Printers. • Click Add Printer. • The computer will search the network and should find your printer. • Find your printer and click it. • Enter your WPS PIN for security, this is shown on the printer control panel. • Right click on the printer, then select Properties. • Click print a test page.
