HP Deskjet D1560 Won't Print - Windows 10

[FanOfComics]

Hello there i've recently had to re-install my HP Deskjet D1560 printer among other things. I first tried to re-install it from a CD that i have but i found out that method no longer works. After some Google searching, I learnt that there is software and drivers for this printer for Windows 10 users on the HP website. So I downloaded those files for this printer. And thought that this would've solved the problem, but I still can't get the printer to print.

Operating System recently migrated to Windows 10 and / or to re-install the printer software:

1. If using a USB cable to connect the printer and computer, disconnect the cable
2. Create a Restore Point >

Sorry for the late response, but that's the same file that I've downloaded. As you can see everything else that comes with the package downloaded correctly but as I said I just can't get the printer to print.

                                                                                           

EDIT: I'm not sure why it worked this time round, but I just tried to print something and it worked. Anyway thanks for replying to my thread.
