IcedRaktajino@startrek.website 2 weeks agoI learned a long time ago to never install manufacturer printer drivers. Or, at least, never install them from the provided Setup.exe.
They’ve always installed a bunch of bloatware (HP has always been the worst but other brands are just as bad).
If you look in the setup folder, there’s usually the raw drivers you can install from Device Manager. If the driver package is just a single .exe file, you can usually unpack it with 7zip and get at its inner contents.
If that fails, the system-included HP LaserJet 4200 PCL driver is about as close to a universal print driver as you can find lol.
