Hello Bob742,

  Yes! C5280 will work and is supported on Windows 10.

 

   I checked and verified that it appears the Win10 driver link for this device is missing: this is something we are currently working on to resolve.

 

    In the interim, let me suggest you download and install the Windows 8.1 drivers: these have been tested and proved working on Windows 10.

 

   To get to the Windows 8.1 drivers.

  1. Search for your device on hp.com/Support/Download Drivers.
  2. Take Option2: 'Go directly to the Software & Driver results'.
  3. On the banner on your screen that says 'Operating System' click edit and change Windows Version to 'Microsoft Windows 8.1'.
  4. You should now see the printer's name, version, date, and a Download button: click it and download and install the software for your device.
  5. Important: Unplug your device 1st before installing software.

When the final release of Windows 10 is available, check the HP web site for updated drivers.

 

Also, you should not upgrade to Windows 10 until at least 6 months after final release.

Windows 10 is available as from today.

 

There is apparently no driver. I found the page eventually.   

 

Is there no way for me to get an email from HP when a driver is available?   

Can anyone tell me if there ever will be a driver?

Well, I installed the Windows 10 driver and 75% of the printer works :

 

One function is missing :

 

with Windows XP I had the function "Transfer image" and I could print CD/DVD covers.

 

I don't see it with the Windows 10 driver ?!?

 

Any help? Thanks in advance.
