Hi DeeDel,

Thanks! Are you looking for an article you can print out or want a copy of the video itself? Let me know what printer you have and I will see what I can do.

[DeeDel]

I have 2 printers, 1 is wireless, the other is antique.  both are HP printers

Printer models are:  HP PSC 750 and HP Office Jet 4500 G510 n-z

This is reference your reply, you wanted to know what kind of printer I had.

Would like to print the instructions in hard copy.

I just need to know how to do it from your site?

Thank You, again.

I cannot find a transcript of this video, but you can bookmark this page in your browser so that you can locate it if/when you need it in the future. As for the printers you have, I have supplied the links to the available software and drivers for each one below:

PSC 750

and

Officejet 4500 G510n

[DeeDel]

Gordon, thank you for sending the driver and software links for the printers. 

Since you are the author of the video, why can't  you not email me the notes so I can print them.

I will bookmark it as you suggested, but still need to learn how to do that, that is another issue.

Although I would like to take credit for being the author of the video, I merely reposted it to the forums for visibility (is originally on Youtube).
