Windows 10: installing an old printer on win 10

Hi, I want to install a canon laser shot lbp1120 printer on my pc with win 10 but actually can't find a driver for that, how should I do, its any way to install it?

:)

 

Old printer installation gives Status:Error

Denis - I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean by: " I suggest you click on your Start menu's HP group..."

However, I carried out your steps 2 and 3 and removed the printer then restarted the PC and the printer returned so nothing achieved. Could you please elaborate on step 1, thanks.

 

I Can't Install an old USB HP PSC printer to my Win 10 Dell Desktop

Which exact PSC printer do you have ?






These are just some I found in the list.

 

Old printer installation gives Status:Error

1 I suggest you click on your Start menu's HP group, right-click on the printer's entry within that and select Uninstall. I'd also suggest rebooting when that is done. That should do all that needs to be be done.

2 But then check Settings, Devices, Printers & scanners and select the device if it is shown and click on Remove the device. Again I'd suggest rebooting when that is done.

3 Then check
Start menu,
Windows system,
Control panel,
{set this to View by - Small/Large icons, just so you can see all the entries},
Devices & printers,
select the device if it is shown,
right-click on the device & select Remove device.
Again I'd suggest rebooting when that is done.

Steps 2 & 3 should not be needed in a perfect world.

I would not go any further in removing drivers than what these steps have accomplished.

1 The downloaded version will be the most up-to-date version available. It will definitely run because it will be an exe file but do remember to use 'compatibility mode' as explained above.
2 Yes, "for Windows 98, Me, 2000 Pro and XP" is what I'd expect it to be.
