Drivers haven't been written for it yet. And a VISTA group isn't the place to look for help, either. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/...egory/w7itpro/ |

My laser printer is a HP 1020, therefore older than yours, and yet it works perfectly with the drivers installed from the install CD that came with the printer. But I have not found a way of making it work on my MAC computer - with Leopard 10.5.5 It used to work with earlier 10.4.x versions. |

When you are in the add printer window, use the Windows Update button to get
the driver from Microsoft. It will seem like it has frozen when you do, but it is not. It will take around 10 minutes to get the drivers. I got them for my LaserJet series II this way. -- Paul "menhel" wrote: I have recently upgraded to windows 7, but it doesnt support my old laserjet printer(hp laserjet 1100) The driver was available in vista.

Connect the printer and let Windows Update find the driver.
