    HP COLOR LASERJET 4600dn

    Hello everybody.
    I have a case that seems a little complicated.
    I just got two printers hp color laserjet 4600 dn and I'm looking for these printers configuration procedure on an operating system windows 7 professional.
    I need to know if anyone has experience in the installation of this printer, what I must have as material and how to process for the installation of this printer.
    I need to know what can I do for printing with this printer.
    Thank you for your help.

    First of all, if anyone else at all comments here, they know better than me so please ignore what follows in that case.
    Still, I just checked the HP website and there are no Windows 7 drivers for that model.
    From my perspective, that leaves only two options:
    1) you are out of luck
    2) you will need to find an older computer that is able to use the drivers still currently available for that printer and set that computer up as a print server.
    If using an older computer turns out to be the only viable option, make sure it is totally isolated from the internet as wrong and stupid things will happen otherwise. Still, an old computer set up as a print server actually should work pretty well. You just need to make sure the newer Windows machines can access the older one across the network.
    Full disclosure: when I last did that the main computer was running Windows XP and the print server was running Windows 98. So it's been a while and there's a fair chance I'm totally wrong now.

      Download and install the Universal Print Driver. Starting with Windows 7, that's pretty much the only driver HP provides anymore. It's actually really nice! You only need to install the UPD and then pretty much ANY HP printer you plug in will be installed.
