www.hp.com should have it under support and downloads.

You should try going to the HP website and downloading the driver for your particular printer. This will most likely be a .exe file. Of course, if you're using XP and you're connected through a USB port, it should do it on it's own. When in doubt, go to the website for your manufacturer.

I'd hate to provide the alternative of installing it from the HP Recovery Console, but I think that would be the best idea. It sounds like there could be drivers and options in the disc that could be missing from your system, but I can't really tell what they would be without being able to deal with your system (And I'm pretty new to HP myself, so I probably still wouldn't know.) I know it's annoying since they load a bunch of crap from the factory back on the system, but I think it might be the safest way to restore your system back to working condition.\n\nMaybe someone else has a suggestion of how to get it done without doing this?

Go to this site and select your operating system, find the driver that fits your need, download it by clicking the download now button, save it to your desktop or other folder so you know where its at. The file is an executable file so just open it and run it.\n\nhttp://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=61682&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&submit.y=3&submit.x=12&lang=en&cc=us

The one thing that you didn't mention trying is this: Uninstall the printer and reinstall the printer. Do you have the cd that came with the printer? If you do not, you can download the drivers from the HP website. ALSO you might want to see if there are updated drivers on the HP website --- Hope this helps!

You don't need to purhcase the installation disc.  Lexmark has all the software you need to get the printer up and running.  \n\nhttp://downloads.lexmark.com/cgi-perl/downloads.cgi?isoctry=us&isolang=en

It is a HP PSC 1100/1200 printer. The driver, or installer, can be found directly from the H-P site:\n\nhttp://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=90787&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&lang=en&cc=us

Download the software off the HP website.\nhttp://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=60096&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&submit.y=0&submit.x=0%E2%8C%A9=en&cc=us

You need to  get to the hp site and have your serial number and model number. you might be able to make a recovery disk or floppy from the site.

You will need to identify your printer first, the model specification then go to the website for that brand manufacturer....then go to the drivers and download as guided thereafter from that particular site. For instance if you have a HP 5500 go to HP site then indicate the model and you will be guided to the drivers. In case your drivers are not available, which is very unlikely, you could also go to cnet.com
