So I took the 4th laptop cak to Costco, where we purchased it. I contacted both HP and Microsoft (There English was pretty god), and after 2-3 days of continually trying everything they recommended, I was told that the "HP LaserJet 5N" was no longer supported and that there is no work around.
COMPUTER IS TRAAG WINDOWS VISTA INSTALL
At the point when I selected HP Laser 5N from the updated list of printers, it would not install the driver. I recently purchased another 4th HP laptop and went through the same installation procedure. Our HP LaserJet 5N has a duplexer on it, which works fine on the first 3 laptops. And when entering a static IP, it created a handshake with the "HP LaserJet 5N", and installed the driver. But when I pressed the Windows Updates button, and waited a few minutes, the "HP LaserJet 5N" was part of the updated list. During the process of adding this LaserJet 5n, the driver was not listed as an option when I went to install Windows 10. We purchased our first three Windows 10 laptops in 2017 and early 2018.

that will lead to the same list of printer drivers that you would have had with Win 7 (my understanding, or misunderstanding, is that when Win 10 loaded it retained the Win 7 printer drivers, but did not make them particularly accessible. it is possible that if you are using the original cable that the default LPT1 is the correct choice.
accept "use existing port" then scroll down and select USB001(virtual port for USB) it probably will scan and deliver a message like "printer - isn't listed" press teh Windows icon in the lower left corner Today, I replaced my Win 7 with Win 10, and as others have reported the drivers for my older printer did not load.Īlthough it is a HP Laserjet 4 plus, that appars to be not so important, other than the fact that the original cable has been replaced with one with a USB connector for my more modern laptop.Īfter struggling and Googling for far too much time, here is what worked very well.
