Check Print Driver Version Windows 7

Sorry, but the above will not work.  The Deskjet 722 is a host based printer and is not compatible with the Deskjet 6980 driver.  

You can install the driver as follows:  connect the printer with the USB-parallel converter.  Click on Start, Devices and Printers, Add a Printer, Local Printer and select the proper port. When the list of printers appears click on Windows Update and wait a few minutes for the list to repopulate.  Once the list repopulates select HP as the manufacturer not Hewlett-Packard and select the Deskjet 720c driver, Next.

Do you have a 32 bit or 64 bit version of Windows 7.  If you have a 64 bit Windows 7 you will need a patch as the supplied driver crashes the spooler.  After installing the printer but before printing anything, including a test page install the patch available here.

Edit - If you get an error Windows was unable to get a list when you click on the Windows Update button then see the workaround here.

the HP Deskjet 720C driver NEVER appears. So, then what.

When one tries to follow instructions step by step, it is very frustrating when the steps do not match what is happening in REAL time.

  • Do you have a 32 bit or 64 bit version of Windows 7. The PSC 720c is not anything like the Deskjet 720c. The Deskjet 710c would also be a good match for the Deskjet 722c.
