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.

Installed windows 7 and now printer wont work changed updates to do it auto but still wont work and cant get it from the hp site where can you get drivers from?

As Windows 7 is a new Operating system, there is a good chance that drivers have yet to be developed for your printer to work properly. If they do exist then you should be able to get them from the support section of the HP website. If they have none for Windows 7, try the Windows Vista ones. If none of this works, try contacting HP support as thay may have a hotfix or some other solution already in place.


How do i load the printer into my new computer when my computer does not have this particular printer in it's computer list?

It sounds like you need software drivers. I would Check the printer manufacturers website in the support section. Usually the driver install is pretty straight forward and identifies your printer automatically during the process.


How do you download a printer into your computer?

A new printer is "added" to the computer. With Windows: Start > Control Panel > Printers and scanners (if I remember right!) and follow instructions. The new printer may need to be installed from a CD, or from the maker's web-site, so that the correct drivers can be installed. Some operating systems may already have the driver required, so making the adding a printer easier.

You have printer hp laser jet 1500 you want to connect on win vista?

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.

How do you share windows XP network printer with Windows 7?

I am sharing a Dell Photo AIO Printer 926 running on an XP computer with a computer on the network running Windows 7. When I started, the printer was already installed and working on the XP computer and set up to be shared on the network. Then I ran the 926 printer installation disk (the disk that came with the printer) on the Windows 7 computer. At some point it asked me if the printer was connected to another computer on the network. When I answered "yes" it asked for the name of the other computer on the network and the shared name of the printer. After I answered those questions it proceeded to "install" the printer as if it was connected to the Windows 7 machine and it works perfectly. I was surprised that worked, after having tried many times (unsuccessfully) to connect to it by installing new drivers on the Windows 7 computer. So I would suggest using the printer installation disk on the Windows 7 computer. If you do not have the disk I would suggest trying to get one from the printer manufacturer.
