| Guest | Re: installation of HP 1610 PSC -- Pat Johnson Thanks, Bruce...I believe that my CD is for Windows XP and therefore is inappropriate. I hoped it would work, but alas...!! I like the sayings at the end of your response -- very much to the point. Again, thanks -- I will attempt to get the proper CD from HP.

Make sure the computer is turned on, then plug the cord into the back of the printer (it should already be hooked up to the back of your computer). Go to control panel, click on 'printers' and make sure there is a green check mark next to HP PSC 1610 saying "ready" -- Jacee *MS-MVP Windows-Security 2006 & 2007* Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com |
