@BrendonC, Welcome to HP Support Community. 

 

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

I'd be happy to help clarify your question about using the HP OfficeJet Pro 8710 with the Surface Pro 12 running Windows 11 on ARM64 architecture.

Compatibility Overview:

The HP OfficeJet Pro 8710 is compatible with Windows 11, including ARM64-based devices like the Surface Pro 12. However, there are a few important considerations:

Driver Support:

  • HP does not provide a dedicated ARM64 driver for the 8710.
  • However, Windows 11 on ARM supports Universal Windows Drivers, and in most cases, the HP Smart App or Windows built-in drivers will allow basic printing and scanning functionality.

Recommended Setup Steps: Here's how to get your printer working:

Option 1: Use HP Smart App (Recommended)

  • Download the HP Smart app from the Microsoft Store: HP Smart
  • Open the app and follow the on-screen instructions to add your HP OfficeJet Pro 8710.
  • This app supports printing, scanning, and managing printer settings.
  • Connect your printer via USB or ensure it's on the same Wi-Fi network.
  • Go to Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Printers & scanners.
  • Click Add device and let Windows detect and install the best available driver.

Limitations on ARM Devices:

  • Some advanced features (like faxing or full scan utilities) may not be available.
  • Duplex printing and scanning should work, but if you face issues, ensure firmware is up to date.

Firmware Update (Optional but Recommended):

I hope this helps. 

 

Take care and have a good day.
