Windows Vista does not support the HP Laser Jet 1500 printer. Regardless, Vista users can sometimes connect their printer to their vista computer, and even though software is not installed, the printer will appear to be ready to print. It is a glitch, and this glitch can sometimes let vista users print with a printer that is not compatible with Vista. If your printer does not work well with Vista, it's time for a new printer, or for a search of HP Laser Jet 1500 software that works with vista.

I recommend not to plug the printer to your computer yet. Insert the installation CD that came with the printer in your computer. Run the software. It will also show you instructions on how to setup the printer itself. Follow the instructions. If you don't have the installation CD, you can download the updated driver from the Lexmark website www.lexmark.com. Hope this helps.

No, it's not Vista or Windows 7 compatible. HP refused to build new drivers.
The printer is discontinued. It was only made for XP. Doesn't even work with Vista.
If your printer has Windows Vista drivers available, they should also work in Windows 7. If your printer is less than 4 years old, it may have drivers available to download off of the manufacturer's website.
