HP Lesarjet 1100 series printer drivers

The drivers offered at the HP support link for your printer (https://support.hp.com/au-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-laserjet-1100-printer-series/25470)
do not include any Windows 7 drivers (my Windows 7 system is detected as "Windows NT" -- it's possible that the driver for NT 4.0 would work, but that's not guaranteed).

On the other hand, Windows Update does have drivers for the HP 1100 up to and including Windows 10.

Thus, assuming that your problem is a driver -- which is not at all clear from your very limited description -- the best way to get the proper driver is to use Windows Update as described below.

Without knowing what your "sign of troubleshooting" means or what you mean by "ran through it but good results," I suggest completely uninstalling and reinstalling the printer as follows.

1. Disconnect the printer from the computer.
2. Open Devices and Printers, right-click the icon for your LaserJet 1100 and select "Remove device."
3. Click on any other icon in the "Printers and Faxes" section of Devices and Printers and then click on the link at the top for "Print server properties."
4. Select the "Drivers" tab, select the driver for the LaserJet 1100 (if present), and click "Remove." Remove both the driver and the driver package.
5. Click "Add a printer" at the top of the Devices and Printers window. Select "Add a local printer."
6. Select "Use an existing port" and leave the drop-down list set to "LPT1: (Printer Port)" then click Next
7. On the "Install a printer driver" screen, select "HP" in the left pane.
8. In the right pane, scroll down. If you find "HP LaserJet 1100 (MS)" select it and click Next and go to step 11.
   
   
   
   
   
9. If you don't find "HP LaserJet 1100 (MS)," click "Windows Update" and wait. Wait some more; this will take some time.
10. When the update completes, find and select "HP LaserJet 1100 (MS)" and click Next
11. Share or don't share the printer as you like (if you do share it, give it an 8 character "Share name" with no spaces and no special characters. Click Next
    
12. Set or don't set the printer as the default printer. Don't click "Print a test page" at this point (because you haven't yet connected the printer).
13. Click Finish
14. Connect your printer to a USB port and turn it on. It should now install automatically.
    
15. If you now have 2 icons for the HP LaserJet 1100:
    • Right-click one of them and select "Printer properties." Select the "Ports" tab.
      
    • If the line that is checked and highlighted shows "LPT1:" as the port, click "Cancel," then right-click and select "Remove device"
    • If the line that is checked and highlighted shows "USBxxx" or "DOT4xxx" then click "Cancel" and check the other icon.
16. In Devices and Printer, right-click the icon for the printer and select "Printer properties" and then click "Print Test Page."
