I’ve been able to print to the newest HP Officejet 8000 series from Windows 7 Embedded by just picking the 6000 series driver from the list. If all you wish to do is “print” there is quite a bit of backwards compatibility in the printer. Other features like scanning may be less so, and the phoning-home ink-pestering notifications aren’t there which seems like a win.
- kjs3 3y agoUnless you need something like duplex or multiple paper trays (or as you say scanning), you should be able to pick 'PCL5' or other generic 'HP' driver and it'll work in a pinch. Agreed that an older, well supported printer that doesn't DRM me to death is one less thing to annoy me in life.
