Is your HP printer not working?

If your HP printer has stopped working you might want to update your HP driver before attempting any other solution. More often than not, the root cause of printer problems is an outdated or corrupt printer driver.

You can update the HP driver in two ways:

• Download it from HP customer support
• Use a reliable driver update software

In this post, we’ve discussed both the methods. You can pick one that you find more comfortable.

Solution 1 – Download HP driver from customer support

Go to the HP website and locate the correct driver. To find the relevant driver, you would need the serial number or the model number of your printer. Therefore, make sure you have this information to hand.

Also, make sure the driver file you download is compatible with the version of Windows that you are using. For instance, if you use 32-bit Windows 10, the driver file must be for 32-bit PCs only.

Once you’ve downloaded the driver file, double-click it and follow onscreen instructions to complete the installation process. If needed, reboot Windows for the changes to take effect.

Now check whether the printer is working.

Solution 2 – Download HP driver using reliable driver update software

If you are not comfortable rummaging the HP driver site to locate the correct driver, we recommend you use a Driver Update Tool a try.
