Hi,

I just installed a new printer the other day and it printed just fine (HP DeskJet Plus 4100 Series) and when I went to print today, it said my printer driver was unavailable. How do I fix this?

    Good Day MikeHowell9,

    My name is Carlo, I'm an Independent Advisor and community member like you.

    I am also using Windows 10 pc. Let us work together to sort this out.

    Here's the steps you can try.

    -Press Windows key + X

    -Go to Settings

    -Click Update and Security

    -Click Troubleshooter then Additional troubleshooter.

    -Look for Printer and run the troubleshooter.

    Once done proceed with these steps.

    -Press Windows key + X

    -Go to Device Manager

    -Expand the Printer

    -Look for Printer driver that was installed

    -Right click and Update

    Once updated restart your computer and try to print.

    If issue persists proceed with these steps.

    -Press Windows key + X

    -Go to Device Manager

    -Expand the Printer

    -Look for Printer driver that was installed

    -Right click and Uninstall.

    Once uninstalled, go to this link below and download the driver and the firmware update.

    https://support.hp.com/ph-en/drivers/selfservic...

    https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software13/print...

    Once the driver is downloaded and installed, restart your computer, setup the printer and try to print.

    I hope the information above helps. Please let me know how it goes.

    Have a wonderful day ahead and stay safe.

    Sincerely,

    Carlo T.
