3:20 AM - How to find drivers for HP Printer?
Now
if you just purchased a new retail version of HP printer, it likely
came with a compact disc with the
hp printer
drivers
installed.
However, if for some reason, you've lost it or picked up the
Officejet 6000 Wireless Printer used and without the drivers, this
article will tell you where to find the correct drivers.
First, let's try the manufacturer's website. Most computer
hardware peripheral product drivers can be found directly on the
manufacturer's website. So let's check that out. First, go to
www.hp.com
, then, on the top of the page near the center we're going to
click on where it says, "support and drivers", next, we're going to
choose the "download drivers
and
software (and firmware)" option and click on that dot to choose it.
Then where it says, "Enter a product name/number", type "Officejet
6000 Wireless" and click "go". Now we see a screen where it lists
most of the current computer operating systems. Windows xp, Windows
Vista, and the new Windows 7 are among them. Assuming you are aware
of what operating system you have, find your operating system and
click on it. (If you don't know, it is explained how to find out
what operating system you're running below) You'll now see a list
of drivers. My suggestion would be to choose a right driver
update
software.
You'll have the choice of an English language only version or
multiple languages. Choose the one that you want.
Now you'll see a user agreement that you may read if you wish
and the file itself at the top of the page. Click on the file
following the words..."File name". Pay attention to where it is
saved to. After it's finished downloading, find the file, double
click on the file and go through the self explanatory installation.
Now let's find out what operating system you have on your PC.
If you are unaware what operating system you are using,
here's how you find out. On your Windows PC, click the "start" menu
on the bottom left corner of your computer screen. Choose "Control
Panel". If your view is in the "category view", click on
"performance and maintenance", and then click "system". Your system
properties should pop up. Click on the "General" tab at the top of
the window if it's not already selected. On the top where it says,
"System" your operating system should be listed. If you view your
control panel in the "classic view" choose the "system" icon and
the identical information will appear.
So do you have it all installed? How's your new printer
working? Hopefully, you're in the midst of a printing frenzy. If
you're having any trouble in finding correct
printer drivers
,
feel free to contact HP technical support. In the USA, you can call
them twenty four hours a day, 7 days a week at 1-800-HP invent.
When you call, have your printer's Serial Number (S/N), product
name, model number, and a description of what's wrong.
Good luck and don't worry. We'll have you up and printing in
no time.
