    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.

    installing an old printer on win 10

    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.
