Printer Driver for vista

Hi if you lose any of your hp install disks you can google you product "HP deskjet 3740" usually the first hit on google is the right one, after clicking the link you need to choose which OS you are running (xp,vista,7, linux or apple). you are then redirected to the appropriate downloads page.

I have doen this for you just click the following link http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=401497&prodTypeId=0&prodSeriesId=372334&swLang=8&taskId=135&swEnvOID=228

Well there is no separate drivers or Applications available to download for vista, even on HP supportsite.
They say that the drivers come by default within the OS or Click on Windows Update while you are adding the printer it should download the driver.

If you just need the printer functionality alone you can do this...
If you have tried installing any applications or drivers from the disk at first get rid off them completely from the system through Programs and Features in Control Panel while doing this unplug the printer.

Also delete the printer from Control Panel - Printers.
Dont plug the printer back in yet..
Now Click on Add Printer in Control Panel Printers.
Choose Local then existing port type as USB now on install printer screen choose your Printer if its not available there under HP or Helwart Packard click windows update and check again you will get it....

once the installation is completed, then connect the printer and check it should work..

Hi

The printer doesn't support windows 98. supported systems are:

» Microsoft Windows Vista
» Microsoft Windows Vista (64-bit)
» Microsoft Windows XP
» Microsoft Windows XP x64
» Microsoft Windows 2000
» Mac OS X
» Mac OS 9
» Linux

Drivers are available at this page below:

Note that there are no drivers for 98 and it won't be simple to get the printer to work with the 98.. I would recommend upgrading to 2000 or windows xp. if your computer is from 1998 it might be better to buy a new computer.

Todays printers don't work with 10 year old computers anymore.

linux would work on the computer for sure, and so would the printer but using linux is quite complex, you would need to get someone to install it for you and make it look as much like windows as possible, its a whole new system..

Let me know if you need anything else.



Thanks,
Ekse

here u can download driver..

HP's site says there are no Vista drivers available, but this document:

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00808543&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&os=2093&product=401496

explains how toinstall the basic drivers built into Vista, and how to use most of the printer features.

You can follow Hp's Installing and Configuring an Alternate Driver in Windows Vista. Click this link provided by HP.

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00808478&lc=en&cc=us&lang=en&dlc=en&product=75035

Before you follow though with Hp's alternet driver site. Please run windows update for Vista un till no updates are left. If your printer still fails to run correctly than try HP's alternate drive.

Good luck & kind regaurds..

Go to hp web site and download Vista driver package to suit
