i don’t think its possible..u can try to find a copy to download of the net.
go to printer manufactures website and download the drivers for the model # of your printer there
go to control panel, open printers, a list will come up and if your printer is listed follow instructions quite easy try it
find the software on the internet honey ….. or let me find the software and send it to you …. just gimme the model no. of your printer dear…..
Hope being helpful….
Go to Control Panel / Add Hardware.
I’m using VISTA and it marvelously finds the driver for my 2 printers automatically; brilliant
go to the manufacturers web site and navigate around. they will usually have the program installation for it. I would suggest going to google and typing “—– (the name and make of your printer)—- software”
you should be pretty well off.
visit http://printers.free-driver-download.com… get free driver downloads
Download the driver from the manufacturers website.
if you have windows xp……… the software should recognize it
however its easy enough to go whoever your printer is made by’s website and you can download the software
and its free
Simply select the said model from the list of the printers in the add printer option. It will give you option either to install the drivers from the CD or floppy or select the printer from the available list ..Microsoft gives drivers of standard printers along with the windows.
there are some printers whic are available in Add Printer option which can be installed without the aid of CD/Floppy.
start – printers & faxes – add printer – select an appropriate printer
Just plug it in. Windows has most drivers for all printers select aotumatically when it asks you
Instead of using a CD or floppy disk, you could also download from the website of the brand name of the printer. For instance, if you’re using Epson then just visit its website but sometimes a few companies don’t support software download for their products because they are sure there are CD-installers.
Sometimes Windows will have generic drivers that will do the job but you can download the proper software from the manufacturer’s website. Say it’s an HP printer, you go to the HP website, click on printers, then look down the list to find the one with the right model number (or closest match).
if by chance you have a HP printer i know from experience they have an excellent website that you can go to online they will scan your computer for model of printer and install appropriate software for you
Contact printer manufacturer for a copy of the installation CD or floppy disk. Or contact some-one who can e-mail the driver to you which you
can download and transfer to a CD or floppy so
you will always have a copy on hand OUTSIDE
of your computer!
You must have mentioned your printer model. Only then I would’ve helped you in a better way. Now all I can say is visit the manufacturer’s website and search for the drivers there. Yes if you wish to buy Good Quality Ink, visit http://www.Ask4Ink.com
download the driver from hp
you should be able to d/load from the net.
Just go to the printer manufacturers site.
Type the name of the printer and add the word drivers to it . That will take you directly to what you need and then it will ask for your operating system . You should have no problems.
