    Me and my boss share an office and we share a printer. The printer is physically plugged into his PC and it's shared as a network printer so that I can use it too. Then yesterday, for no reason, it suddenly told me on my PC that it needs to download a driver to use the printer. So I tell it okay and then it says it can't connect to the printer. I see there are pending Windows updates on my PC, so I figure maybe that might be the issue. So I run and install the updates this morning and still have the same issue. I try uninstalling the printer from my PC and reconnecting. Still the same problem except that this time I can't reinstall the printer because I get the 'missing driver' message and it won't connect to the printer. I uninstalled it from my boss's PC and reinstalled it and that went fine but it still wouldn't let me connect to it from my PC because I get the 'missing driver' error.

    I hate messing with drivers, been a long time thankfully. At work the main office is getting all new PC's so we get their hand me downs, plus two new printers, a monitor and 4 office chairs. I'm least looking forward to dealing with the printers. We have 4 printers on 4 PCs that currently work most of the time. Maybe they will send Josh over to set things up too and I won't have to deal with it.
    3 of the 4 current PC's are slow as hell and overloaded with files that people dump everywhere. I'm gonna take over the Condo office PC assuming what they send us is better than what we have. All I'm worried about is the outdated security camera software.

    The thing is though, there's no reason there should be a missing driver. It was working fine the day before and then suddenly there's a missing driver on my PC?

    Maybe it got corrupted somehow? I haven't done it since the XP days but can you still go in and manually delete a driver and let windows reinstall on reboot?

    I've tried every way I can think of. I downloaded the drivers direct from HP and it still doesn't work. I try and print and then get the 'missing driver' message and that it can't connect to the printer to download the driver. It really doesn't make sense.

    I dunno. Maybe Goofy will offer a suggestion instead of hurling slurs at you.
