HP Photosmart 4140 all in one
Microsoft Windows Vista (64-bit)

Printer wouldnt print. I uninstalled drivers and then went to HP website and redownloaded the new drivers. I went to my downloads folder and clicked it. It stated "extracting" and when it was done...nothing happened. I went to the Icon that showed the procces of the download and it showed this...

"USB composit device ready to use"

"C4100 Photosmart 4100 ready to use"

"USB printing support ready to use"

"C4100 Photosmart printing.....wizard canceled by user"....DID NOT DO THIS...IT NEVER CAME UP

 

 

It isnt loading. Its just thinking. Its been an hour.

HELP!
