I have a hp deskjet 5740 printer. On my computer (windows vista home premium) it detects the printer but cannot find the drivers for it and this printer works on my sisters laptop which has vista aswell. Please Help. -- qbanrocker ------------------------------------------------------------------------ qbanrocker's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/qbanrocker.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/vista-print-fax/1037097.htm http://forums.techarena.in |

... I have a hp deskjet 5740 printer. On my computer (windows vista home premium) it detects the printer but cannot find the drivers for it and this printer works on my sisters laptop which has vista aswell. Please Help. I would start by adding the printer manually - go to Start, Control Panel, Printers, Add Printer, Local, LPT1, then select the HP Deskjet 5700 Series out of the list. Once the printer has been added right click on it, select Properties, Ports and select the appropriate USB or DOT4 port rather then the LPT1 port it was set up with.
