If you own an HP printer, you know the drill: in order to use it, you have to install the HP driver first. The process is pretty straightforward and it shouldn't take more than a few minutes of your time. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to do it.

Add a network printer to Windows
Set up a Wi-Fi or wired network printer in Windows without installing any additional drivers.
• Search Windows for and open Change device installation settings, and then make sure Yes (recommended) is selected.
• Place the printer and the computer near the Wi-Fi router.
• Connect the printer to the same network that your computer is connected to.
• Wi-Fi connection for printers with a touchscreen control panel: Open the Setup, Network, or Wireless settings menu, select Wireless Setup Wizard, and then follow the instructions to select the network name and enter the password.
• Wi-Fi connection for most printers without a touchscreen control panel: Press and hold the Wireless button for five seconds or until the wireless light starts to flash. Within two minutes, press and hold the WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) button on the router until the connection process begins. The printer wireless light stops flashing when the connection completes.
• Wi-Fi connection for HP Deskjet 6000 and 6400, ENVY 6000 and 6400, and Tango printers: Press and hold the Wi-Fi button and the Power button on the back of the printer for five seconds until the blue bar flashes. Within two minutes, press and hold the WPS button on the router until the connection process begins. The blue bar stops flashing when the connection completes.
• Wired (Ethernet) network connection: Connect the network cable to the printer Ethernet port and to an available port on the router or access point. At the printer port, the green light should be steady and the orange activity light should blink.
• In Windows, search for and open Add a printer or scanner.
• Click Add a printer or scanner, and then wait for Windows to locate available printers.
• If your printer is found, click it, and then click Add device to complete the driver installation.
• If your printer is not found, continue with these steps.
• Click The printer that I want isn't listed.
• In the Find a printer by other options window, select Add a printer using TCP/IP address or hostname, and then click Next.
• Select Autodetect from the Device type drop-down.
• Find the printer IP address.
• Most printers with a touchscreen display or menu: Open the Wireless Summary or Network Settings menu to find the IP address.
• Most inkjet printers without a touchscreen control panel: Press the Wireless and Information buttons at the same time, or press the Wireless and Start Copy Black buttons at the same time. A report prints that lists the IP address.
• Most LaserJet printers: Press and hold the Wireless button for 10 seconds or until the Ready light blinks, or go to the Wireless menu and select Wireless Network Test. A report prints that lists the IP address.
• HP DeskJet 6000 and 6400, ENVY 6000 and 6400, and Tango printers: Touch and hold the Information button until all control panel buttons light up, and then touch the Information and Resume buttons at the same time. A report prints that lists the IP address.
• Laser NS and Neverstop Laser printers: Press and hold the Resume and Wireless buttons for 3 seconds. A report prints that lists the IP address.
• Type the printer IP address, click Next, and then follow the instructions to install the driver for your printer model.
