HP LaserJet MFP M426dw
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello,

This printer, HP LaserJet MFP M426dw, is installed on a Windows print server. With every driver update (which happened 2 times last month) I have to go to each and every computer and enter my admin account, in order to update the drivers, because if I don't then no one can print, and the computers are a lot.

I got tired of getting calls and updating every computer, so I decided to change the driver type on the print server to V4. I found out that these drivers don't require admin privileges when they update. 

I downloaded this driver:

installed it on the print server, deleted and reinstalled the printer using this new driver and deployed the printer to the rest of the domain computers. The problem now is that when someone prints a page with an error message also appears:

This also happen on other HP printers that we own, like M402 and M553. How can I resolve this?
