Can't connect to remote Deskjet 5150

I am running windows 7 x64. We have a HP Deskjet 5150 attached to a Windows XP machine which is on our wireless network. When I try and connect to the printer, windows cannot find a driver but if I install the printer locally, Windows already has the driver. How can I get windows to use this driver for the remote printer?

Please, how does your Win 7 x64 machine compare to anything else on your network?

Can any other computer see that printer at all?

When you install the printer locally does that mean by USB, or what please?

When you installed Win7, did you upgrade or did you do a Clean install? If you performed an upgrade, you may have the problem with older conflicting drivers and services. Read this to see what I mean. http://members.shaw.ca/bsanders/CleanPrinterDrivers.htm

My windows 7 laptop shows my hp 5150 deskjet printer and the printer gets to the standby mode but not prints

HP Deskjet 5150 is highly compatible with windows 7, so no issue for the operating system. Now we check the driver for your printer if it has the latest updated software if it does then there is no issue.

I can't find drivers for HP Designjet 1050c printer running with Windows 7 OS

And you won't.. Because there are none as this unit is considered too OLD. Try this "work around". Download your XP driver you wish to install. If it's in a zip/rar file then extract it to your desktop. You should have a simple .exe file sitting on your desktop to install the drivers, as normal for XP. Right click the .exe file and select "Properties". Then select the tab called "Compatibility" Now check the box next to "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" Make sure "Windows XP Service Pack 2" is highlighted. Now apply the settings and run the installer. This should work for most drivers, but not all
