How to install driver for HP 4250N laserjet printer? -

I have a HP laserjet printer 4250N and I have the usb cord plugged into the printer and computer. I have even downloaded the driver from the HP website, however, I do not know what to do now that the driver is saved onto my desktop. Please help!

Go to startgt;control panel and click systems. Go to the hardware tab and click device manager. Look for the device you want to update the driver for and double click it. Go to the driver tab and click on update driver. -A screen will pop up like in the automatic install. Select quot;install for a list or specific locationquot; this time and click next. Uncheck quot;search removable mediaquot; and check quot;include this location in searchquot;. Click the browse button and go to the directory where you saved your new driver. (if its on CD just search removable media and it will find it). -Click next and it will attempt to install the driver. Once done click next and your new driver is install. A reboot might be required for the device to work properly

Unplug the USB cable, plug it back in when the HP program tells you to. Then, Double-click on the downloaded HP driver file to install it. Then, just follow the on-screen instructions.

When it searches for it, set it to search from a specific folder and point it to the folder where you extracted the driver. You can do this by right clicking My Computer -gt; Properties -gt; Hardware tab -gt; Device Manager -gt; you ll see Unknown UB Device with a yellow quot;!quot; next to it; this is your printer which isn t being recognized by windows. Right click it and select Update Driver, you ll be prompted through the wizard to search for the driver; if you have indeed downloaded the correct driver, set the search to Advanced, select Specific folder to search in; make a temp one on your desktop with the driver, select it, and proceed with installing.

redownload the driver and save it to my documents and install

Hp will most likely put it in a .exe file and I m guessing you downloaded that. All you have to do is just double click the file you just downloaded and it ll install the driver for you
