    ok so request for help: my old photo printer is bought long ago, and Im trying to use it with a newer PC (the HP page lists Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP for current modles) 馃槀 The vendor site doesnt list my model aynmore. Are there compatible drivers from similar models, or built-in Windows drivers that work? Id prefer official or at least safe sources. Id love to keep using it for a few more years. thx in advance!!

    oh ive been there lol if no driver works, a small print sevrer device or sharing it from an older machine are workarounds. or accept its time for a new printer that supports driverless printing.

    have u tried turning it off and on again (im only half joking)

    Avoid modifying old driver INFs or disabling driver signature enforcement. Its not worth weakening teh system for a printer.
