Установка драйвера на принтер из центра обновления виндовс

Процедура простая заходим в устройства и принтеры.

Нажимаем установка принтера перед этим можно принтер не подключать.

Выбираем локальный принтер.

Появляется настройки порта оставляем по умолчанию все настройки жмем далее.

А вот в следующем окне жмем Цент обновления windows.

Немного подумает и выкинет большущий список производителей и принтеров.

Находим который нам нужен по производителю и модели. В моем случи нужен был принтер HP laser jet 1200. Драйвер на windows 7 x64 на него просто не существует так как этот принтер давно устарел. Офф сайт может предоставить только для x32 (x86) битной системы.

А вот в центре обновления windows он есть. Хотя неплохое решение принудительно на него запихать драйвер от HP Laser Jet 2200. Он встроен в систему и хорошо работает с принтером hp 1200.

Выбрали принтер нажали установить Ждем какое-то время и принтер установлен.

Этот принтер который установили можно удалить. Так как он работать не будет, а вот драйвер в системе останется. Подключаем принтер и он установит этот драйвер.

Все принтером можно пользоваться.
