I have been trying to get an updated driver.  It says there is one but I can't downloan on my printer.  I can see

the printer in devices and I can get the scanner to work but not print.  If I upgrade to windows 11 can I get a driver?

@TeriG1, Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.

I understand you are looking for a printer driver. However, due to the age of the printer, the printer driver is not available on the HP Support site to work on Win 10/11.

You may install the printer using Windows built-in driver

Refer to this document to know how. Try printing. Use Deskjet 990c driver if your printer is not listed.

Refer to this document HP printer setup (Windows built-in driver) for help.

If this does not help, I suggest you upgrade the printer. You may visit Hp Store to check the available printers.

Keep me posted for any other assistance.
