Windows 10[edit]

For HP, you can go to Drivers In the search box type in the model of your printer and click the search button. Select your operating system from the list. Now download the driver for your printer (We recommend downloading the PostsScript Driver).

- If the printer is not listed click on Have Disk... Browse Go to the directory where you saved your drivers and select it. Click OK. Now you should see your printer in the list.
