Designjet 800
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I recently acquired a used Designjet 800 plotter, which I am trying to run with Windows 10.

 

The printer itself seems to work fine, but when I attempt to run a print from "HP instant printing 3" it gets stuck on "render progress - printing file".

 

When I try to run a test print, I receive an error saying "Operation could not be completed (error 0x000000cb). The system could not find the environment option that was entered."

 

I downloaded and installed drivers from here: https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-designjet-800-printer-series/25302. I enabled "send job as bitmap" under troubleshooting.

 

I am by no means an expert - just the opposite actually, and I have spent the last week trying to get the printer up and running, reading through forums, and trying different solutions, but without success.

 

Did anoyone have succes with getting the Designjet 800 to work on a Windows 10 computer? All help is much appreciated.
