HP Photosmart 1215 Driver & Vista
Worked for my system as well. Thank you.
Worked for my system as well. Thank you.
Thank you for the tip about the Photosmart 7200 drivers, it worked great.
Here is a step by step description of how to install.
1.) Go to device manager and make sure you remove any reference to the Photosmart 1215.
2.) Go to printers and manually install, right click in the open printers window and choose Run As Administrator>add printer.
3.) Add a local printer using the existing port: USB001(virtual printer port for USB)
4.) In the next window choose Manufacturer: HP, Printers: HP Photosmart 7200 series.
5.) Then hit next and away you go, you should have the little window asking if you want to print a test page, click yes and if all went as well as it did for me it should be printing a test page.
PS Make sure the printer USB is plugged in and printer is turned on.
w00t thanks guys
Instead of removing any reference to Photosmart 1215 in device manager, simply right click on Photosmart 1215 in device manager, go to update drivers, and browse for the driver for hp photosmart 7200. Windows will alert you that that driver may not be compatible, click ok, and there you go. Doing it the other way didnt work for me....
