How can i connect a HP printer to a Dell laptop without an installation disk? -

I have this HP Deskjet printer that i would like to connect to my dell laptop. When i plug the USB cord into the USB slot on the side of my laptop, this message pops up saying quot;One of the USB devices attached to this computer has mall-functioned, and windows does not recognize itquot; How can i make this printer work without the disk?

Dell sucks. It ripped off consumers with its bait and switch tactics. Check this blogsite for what happened in Taiwan. http://deceptivedell.blogspot.com

download the drivers for the printer at www.hp.com/support for your make and model of printer..cheers
