Installing the printer
I have Windows Vista and I was trying to install my current printer. Its an
HP Officejet 4315 all in one. Everytime I try to install it; it gets halfway
and then it comes up with an error message telling me that I cannot use the
'run as' to install this program.

I knew that the Windows Vista has a new download that you have to use in
order to install the printer, but I can't find it anywhere.

Hi,

Unplug your printer, remove any old software inc drivers. Download and
install vista driver from here

plug your printer back in and let Windows do the rest.

Re: Installing the printer
As always, you find the latest driver package for your printer at the
printer manufacturer's website (not Microsoft's website).

Yours can be found at:
