Windows 10: Question #2. Complete new install of Windows 10. I have an old HP Laserjet 6P printer using...

Hello, in previous installations/reinstallations of Windows 10, I have been able to set up my old, completely fine, still working great, HP LaserJet 6P printer. I've had it for 25 years and it still works great for B/W printing. For a lot of those years, I have been using a D-Link DP-101P Print server set up at a static IP point on my home network. As of my last install, approximately a year and a half ago, I was able to find the driver for it in the Windows driver update. Now I cannot not. Can someone provide me a driver file that I can save to my hard drive, that Win 10 will recognize,

:)

 

Windows 10 HP LaserJet 6p printer issues

Ok, I got Win 10 to find and install the old HP LaserJet 6p.

It says it has the most up-todate driver, however it gives an "error printing on HP Laserjet 6p"/ "the printer could not print this".

No matter what I send it, even the "TEST PAGE"!

 

How to install HP Laserjet 6p in win 10

I mentioned:

So this way of installation won't work.

I also went to HP, but those drivers aren't valid for win 10.

BUT I've found in one of my backup files the word HP Laserjet 6p: prnhp001.inf_amd64_081cf2b90ec9e6d5
Selecting this when installing on the regular way, it installs on the usual way.
Dit cost some time to find this way, but now It works.

 

How to install HP Laserjet 6p in win 10

I reinstalled win 10. Now there is no Hp Laserjet 6p in the printer list anymore.
Before installing I did what is in this tutorial:
Backup and Restore Printers in Windows

I found it afterwards, but I did what is told here.

It goes wrong regarding the HP LJ 6p. He was installed in win 10 64 and I wanted it to in stall it again in win 10 64.
I get a message that tels it is a 32 bits driver.
I'm aware of this:

I have a laptop win 10 64 left with installed Hp laserjet 6p.



Are there possibilities to copy something from the working laptop to the new installed desktop to get this printer working?

I can publish the error log here, but it is in Dutch....
