trying to get HP G55 printer driver for windows 10

[Jonah61]

I recently bought a refurbished HP computer, System Type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

WINDOWS 10 Home Version 1803 OS build 17134.48.

I have an old G55 office jet printer that works exceptionally well on windows 7, however moving on to windows 10 I have tried to find a driver without success.

I have tried installing it a standard printer as per windows 10 instructions but windows doesn't recognize it.

I realise it may be time to say goodbye but it has some excellent features that are no longer available on newer printers and it copies photos colour prefect and I would like to keep it going as cartridges are still available.

Can anyone suggest where I could get a driver or convince windows 10 to recognise it please ?

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

This HP Officejet g55 All-in-One Printer does not support the Windows 10 operating system and its not meeting basic hardware requirements. 

Let's try Installing and Using the Windows Built-in Print Driver: Click here

Hi forum

I updated the windows 10 computer today with the latest updates 28.01.2019.

I then plugged in the Hp G55 printer which was already switched on.

The computer recognised the printer so I went to settings- printers and I was suprised to see it was listed - it has never been before.

I then went to add printer - highlighted the HP G55 and then made it my default printer.

I then printed a test page and it actually worked - I was happily amazed.

Thank you for your help I am most greatfull
