How to update your HP Printer software?

A printer driver is a piece of software that translates your computer data into a format your printer can understand. Each printer is built with different hardware and software, so your computer needs to learn how to give instructions to each particular machine. That’s what a printer driver is used for.
  • A driver helps your computer understand the printer’s technical details, and how to transfer data to it
  • A driver transfers print data to the printer in a language it can understand 

If you’ve already installed an HP driver on your computer, it may receive periodic updates to fix bugs and implement new features. You don’t want to skip these updates - an outdated driver may cause your printer to stop working with your computer. You can update your driver in a couple of different ways.

Update your driver with Windows Update

  • Restart your computer so you can make sure that any prior updates have been correctly installed
  • Press the Windows key and search for and open Check for updates
  • If there are any updates, they should begin installing automatically - otherwise, you can click Download to begin the installation
  • You can also adjust your Windows Update settings here

Update your driver in Device Manager

  • Press the Windows key and search for and open Device Manager
  • Select the printer that you’ve connected from the list of available devices
  • Right-click the device and select Update driver or Update driver software
  • Click Search automatically for updated driver software
  • Follow the on-screen instructions to install the updated driver
  • Restart your computer
