    You don't say where you did this online search for drivers.

    Uninstall then reinstall your Printer using the correct Drivers and setup information at this HP website.

    And there are troubleshooting steps for it there too.

    Win10 and HP Laserjet Pro 400 M401dn printer Issues

    Just upgraded to WIN10 from 7. Everything OK except for HP LaserJet Pro 400 m401dn printer.

    The automatic Win10 install treats the printer as a USB CD drive. If the CD device is removed and using the HP installation software to force the PCL6 driver, the software says Win10 accepted the driver, but now does not see the printer on the USB port.

    Have tried many approaches but no luck

    Any ideas ?
