Driver without bloatware for LaserJet P1102w

I'm trying to use an HP LaserJet P1102w that's on my home network. I'm looking for the drivers, but I'm uncertain of what to download. There is a 100+mb package that declares I need 500+mb of space to install. It comes with the driver and a bunch of extra software that I don't need. I assume that it is the extra stuff that takes so much space, since drivers are much smaller. There are also two other packages that say they are "updates". I'm not sure if I can just download the updates and they will install the driver from scratch or not. What should I download to get the driver and nothing else?

What operating system? There is a basic driver available through Windows Update in Windows 7. You can get this driver by simply attaching the printer with a USB cable.
Once this driver is installed you could install the update from the HP website.

Need to download Mac driver (OSX Mavericks) for LaserJet P1005

I am visiting a home that has a HP LaserJet P1005. I need to install the driver on my MacBook Pro Retina using OSX (the latest version: Mavericks). The owner of the printer has an install disk for the driver but these new MacBook Pros no longer have an internal optical drive. So I need to download the driver from the internet. The printer is now out of warranty, not that it should matter. The HP site says to get the driver from Apple using Software Update but Apple does not have it. The HP site says if Apple does not have the driver that the older driver on your computer will work - but I don't have that. So I have not been able to find any support post that helps me. I tried calling the 800 number and was on hold waiting for half an hour before I gave up. Please help! I need to print some documents in the next few days before year end. Thanks.

How to re-download PS Elements (on replacement hard drive) without paying for software a 2nd time?

My hard drive completely died and I lost all my files and programs. (I usually have everything backed up but unfortunately my back up drive had had issues about a month before and I hadn't got around to getting it fixed - lesson learnt the hard way!)
I now have a brand new hard drive in my laptop and need to re-download and install PS Elements but I don't want to have to pay for it a second time.
How do I do this?

Have you bought the PS elements or you were using it as the trial?
If you have bought the software then you ca download and install the software as you did earlirer.
and also please tell us your OS and verison of PS elements.

Driver without software for HP D110a?

I am looking to install the drivers to print and scan but not all the packaged software that HP provides. Any suggestions? The printer is HP Photosmart D110a and I'm running Snow Leopard.

You can only download a disk image containing all the drivers and software. However when you open the installer you may be able to select which item to install. If you don't have this option you can only install everything and then delete the additional software.

Hp Laserjet P1102w Doesn't show up in Print and Fax list OS 10.5.8

Got an HP Laserjet 1102w and tried to install under Mac OS 10.5.8. I downloaded and sucessfully ran the HP drivers but when I go to add the printer under system preferences/printers and fax the list of available printers is blank. I've tried several routines suggested by a web search of the problem to no effect.
Anybody out there solved this?

Thanks for your attention. I figured out the solution. See below.
The printer was connected by USB and I was also trying to get the wireless connection set. I had intermittent progress on both fronts but could not get a successful installation either as a USB connection or wireless connection. The printer would "disappear" off the list of available printers (using the "+" to add printer, OS 10.6.8) or not respond to setup commands. And I could not get the printer's wireless connection to my network to "take".
Printing the configuration page was of no use. If the printer is unable to connect to the wireless network it reports the printer IP address as 0.0.0.0.
TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM
         (clicking + under "Print & Fax" the printer does not appear or the printer name disappears)
1) replace the USB cable - the original was susceptible to cutting out;
2) give up on wireless - to - wireless set up methods - no amount of factory resetting would clear the mystery connection block;
3) set up the wireless connection by way of a (good) USB cable;
3) switch the browser used to view the printer's setup page from Firefox (34.0.5 for Mac OS 10.6.8) to Safari
4) use WPA security mode (not WEP as suggested by HP's help files).
The primary troublemaker was the bad USB cable. Going thru a wireless set up presumes that the printer can connect to the network. As already noted, the wireless connection was not working. The blue network light would not come up steady. Some transmission option was blocking sucessfull handshaking between the printer and my wireless router. I tried the recommended factory reset methods without success.
I needed a good USB connection to get to the printer's setup options.
Don't know what was up with Firefox - a bad plugin or something? It just would not connect to the printer via IP addressing. Safari worked fine. (Now the printer is successfully setup Firefox has decided to work too.)
SO THE SOLUTION IS:
      1) connect the printer and Mac via a (good) USB cable;
      1) use Safari to get in to the printer's setup functions (via system preferences/print & fax/options & supplies/show printer web page);
      2) follow the recommended setup options (HP support for Laserjet P1102w, OS 10.6, using a USB cable to set up a wireless connection);
      3) select the proper wireless network from the list;
      4) reset the security mode to WPA; and
      5) give the printer the correct wireless network password.
Thank-you, and the forum, for your help.

Message 'computer unable to connect to printer' appears during installation of laserjet p1102w.

During installation of wireless software for Laserjet P1102W on computer with XP Professional (pk2), the message ' printer was able to connect to wireless network. However, this computer is unable to connect to the printer.' I verified the computer and printer both connected to same named network with same WEP , open, key, etc. credentials. I have a linksys connected to the computer and cable modem. When I connect using the USB connect wire to the computer directly, I can print. Both software, wired and wireless, were loaded. My HP Inkjet printer is wired to the linksys and works for multiple wireless network computers. Do I need to have a different printer? I thought i could still have a truly wireless printer!?! I am a novice at this. Thanks for any assistance you can give.

I called HP support. The tech was very knowledgeable and helpful. The HP Smart Install program (in printer and on CD) that came in the box was an old version. I needed to reset the printer back to factory default and download the new firmware from HP.com internet site.
The older software had an incorrect router address (network). You can see the router (IP) address when you do the Self Test (holding down the 'on' button) under network Information. The IPv4 address should be the same as your router. Now my printer and computer are looking at the same network.
Works great! Love this LaserJet. Faster than my last HP LaserJet 4L.

Can't install driver for HP laserjet p1102w

I have a HP laserjet p1102w installed on my network wirelessly. It was working fine, but then I had to set up the network anew.
Now I can't get it to work on one of our macbooks. The other one works fine, they both run 10.7.5
I tried to remove the printer from the list and install the driver again from scratch. I downloaded the newest driver from HP, installed it, and upgraded the printer firmware (using the other laptop). When i click the + in the printer list, the printer shows up, and then i get the message to configure it, saying that the software is available from Apple. It seems to download, and then says the software is not available at this point, telling me to get the newest software from the printer manufacturer. Which is what I did in the first place.
I tried this several times, also tried repairing permissions, that didn't help.
Does anyone have any ideas? Would greatly appreciate help, have spent a few hours trying to figure this out to no avail.

Help setting up a Laserjet P1102w for wireless printing on a Mac

I'm trying to setup a Laserjet P1102w on my Mac for wireless printing, but it's not working. It will print fine using USB, but all the documentation for wireless setup is for Windows, not Mac. if I connect the printer via USB to my Mac, how will it get an IP address from my wireless network? Any help appreciated.

Hi Staxofjoy,
Based on the information you provided, and comparing to another post regarding this issue (link below) - It sounds like you are running 10.7 (Lion).
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Mac-Printing-and-Scanning/HP-Laserjet-P1102w-driver-for-Macbook-OS-X-Li...
Please go to the linked thread above, and look for the post by mikel1004 - he outlined the steps for connecting Adhoc to the printer very clearly.
Summary of what you will need to to:
1. Reset Printer to Defaults
2. Connect to printer via Adhoc from your Mac (This will disconnect you from your home wireless network)
3. Access HTML Config, and configure the printer's wireless settings manually from there.
4. Reconnect the Mac to the Home Network
5. Add the printer to the print queue.
Hope this helps

Wireless connecting for laserjet Pro P1102W

I have a mac - no problem setting up the printer but I can't seem to connect the wireless component. I have gone into the systems and opened up printer - utility - everything is good but it won't let me put in the encrypted password for my network.

Welcome to the HP Forums dcfrk,
I see by your post that you are unable to setup the printer on the wireless network.
I can help you with this.
If the issue is that the HTML won't load, please follow these steps for 10.8 or lower:
Make sure Safari is set as the default browser. (sometimes the EWS won't open if it isn't set as the default)
Open Safari, across the top select the Safari menu, select Preferences, General, set as default.
Close out all applications.
You can access the HTML from this location:
On the Apple menu bar, click Go, computer, Mac Harddrive, library, printers, HP,Laserjet, P1100_P1560_P1600Series, open HTML config.
Go to the network tab, select wireless on the left side, select infrastructure, select network name, select the double
arrow button to move the network name over to the left side, fill in passwords, apply.
You should get a solid blue wireless light in about 1 minute.
Then go to the Apple, system preferences, print & scan, highlight the P1102w and click the minus at bottom left
corner to delete it, then disconnect USB cable, click the plus sign in bottom left corner and highlight the P1102w bonjour printer, beside Use: make sure it shows the proper printer name and not Airprint, (Airprint is a preinstalled Apple driver with basic functionality) click on the add button. You might have to click on the drop down to select your printer.
Test the printer.
