How to install driver for Windows 8.1 without physical connection

I have a Photosmart 7762 printer connected to a NAS box (with wiring all very difficult to get to behind various office units) and want to be able to print to it from a new Windows 8.1 PC that is installed (again with difficult to get to wiring) in a separate room but on the same network.
The HP site for the printer says I have to use Windows Update to get the driver, but this only works if you physically connect the printer to the PC which isn't an easy thing to do in this case.
Does anyone know where I can get hold of the driver so I can use the "Have Disk" option? I have been unable to find it anywhere. Alternatively, does anyone know how to copy the driver from an existing Windows 7 install (on a laptop I could connect it to) and whether that would work?
This question was solved.

Hi,
Folow the steps listed under Download the driver for later use or use on another computer below, it will allow downloading the INF and installing those manually, be sure to follow the link to Microsoft which explain how to locate the correct package and extract it:

  • How to install itune for windows 7

    I have a problem install itune for windows 7. Please help.....
    After installing itume 10.2.2 64-bit, It prompt me "Apple Application Support" is require to download itune.
    Info:
    Model: Sony vaio
    Windows 7 Home Premium
    Rating: 3.2
    Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU [email protected]
    Memory: 2.00GB
    System: 64-bit Operating System

    It prompt me "Apple Application Support" is require to download itune.
    Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • How to install  driver for Intel Pro 1000 PCI Network-card

    Hello,
    I just bought the a.m. Intel Pro 1000 Network adapter, but I don't know at all how to install the driver for Solaris 10.
    The installation instructions delivered from Intel didn't help me at all, because I can't uncompress the INTCGigae.pkg and the INTCGigaE.tar.z files.
    I copied them to /tmp and folllowed Intel's Installlation Instructions.
    Please keep in mind I am new to Solaris 10, with no Linux/Unix experience, when helping me.
    Thanks in advance for help and assistance.

    Hi!
    And what happens if you install the driver from the Toshiba WLAN portal:
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan
    I still dont know what you mean with Askey for Toshiba
    You should try to install the driver manually. Choose in device manager the WLAN card, right click and select Update Driver. Choose the advanced installation where you can choose the driver directory yourself and navigate to the folder where you have stored the downloaded driver.

  • How to install hardware for windows 7

    I cannot find drivers for peripherals and I cannot connect to the Internet because drivers for wi-fi and ethernet are not available

    You need to download the drivers from the Apple website while booted into OSX. Burn the drivers onto CD and then, boot into Windows.
    Install the drivers from CD. Do you have an external CD drive for your MacBook Air?

  • How to install driver for HP photosmart 7520 on MacOSX 10.5.8???

    My husband does basic printing of documents.  His computer is a MAC OSX 10.5.8.   We have a new HP Photosmart 7520 printer which requires 10.6 minimum. 
    Is it possible to get a driver for this printer for him, that will allow him to access the printer, without getting a new computer!!  ??  To simply be able to print and fax and scan.. he rarely does photos. 
    Please Help, as of course, he is quite frustrated, and as a result, so am I!!
    Thanks.

    Hi grammaglenys,
    Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you having trouble installing drivers with your printer. It is true that this printer only supports Mac OS X 10.6 as the minimum requirement for the HP Photosmart 7520.
    As the Operating System is older than when the printer came out, there currently isn't a driver available. However, here is a list of printers that can be used with Mac OS X 10.5.8. Archived - Mac OS X 10.5.3: Printer drivers included in the HP Printer Driver Update v1.1.1. Or you can try upgrading the Operating System to Mac OS X 10.6.
    Hope this answers your question, and have a great day!

  • How to install driver for Intel HD on Satellite C660-22V?

    Hi
    I could not reply below so here is my question.
    http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums//thread.jspa?threadID=68240
    As*** I do not know if you work for toshiba but what else am I suppose to do if the driver installed on a new laptop does not allow me to use my software?
    The software is ArcGIS and would be widely used.
    Seems like it has been 2 years since the driver was updated by Toshiba so what good is that?
    I would expect the laptop to work out of the box as the specs met the system requirements for the software.
    Will there be an update in the future?

    Hi
    This seems to be a user to user forum so would not expect to get answers from Toshiba here
    > Seems like it has been 2 years since the driver was updated by Toshiba so what good is that?
    > I would expect the laptop to work out of the box as the specs met the system requirements for the software.
    Where is a problem? The Satellite C660-22V supports Intel graphic card.
    Visit the Intel page to get the latest graphic card driver.
    If you would not be able to install this using the install.exe, go to device manager and install/update the graphic card driver via device manager
    Use the advanced install option to point to the driver folder containing the latest driver files thats it

  • How to use itunes for windows server 2003

    how to install itunes for windows server 2003

    Purchased music from the iTUnes store is in a "AAC protected" format. It can only be used in iTUnes. Any music you buy online these days will have some protection on it where you can only use it in there program.
    The way around this is to burn the purchased songs to a CD in iTUnes. Then goto edit>preferences>advanced tab>Import sub tab and set your import settings to something like MP3.
    Now put the burned CD back in the PC and "Re"import it into iTunes so its imported in a MP3 format so you can use it in any program. Before importing it tho you need to manually add the name of the song, artist album ect ect

  • How to install USB driver for Windows?

    I'm trying to connect my LG VS980 phone to a Windows XP computer. I'm having difficulty installing the USB driver.
    After following several false trails, I found what I think is the right file: on a "Product Support" page which says it's for a "G2 Verizon VS980," there's a button labeled, "Install the USB DRIVER / USB DRIVER for Windows / DOWNLOAD." I clicked the button and downloaded a file 8 MB file. Its name is LG. Not LG.exe or LG.msi or LG.zip. Just LG.
    When I double click the file, Windows quite reasonably asks me what program to use to run it. I don't know what program to use any more than Windows does.
    There's a link labeled "Instructions... LG G2 VS980 SOFTWARE UPDATE below the download button. When I click it, it loads instructions for installing software on the phone.
    Can anyone make sense of this for me?

    I'll so my best to answer the questions.
    >...what you're looking to do a transfer with...?
    Initially I want to download pictures taken with the phone's camera. I've considered other uses for a USB connection that I can explore once it's working. I'm puzzled by the question, though. Why should the type of data I want to transfer affect the fact that I can't find an installable driver? I wonder whether my question means the same thing to you as it does to me.
    Because photos and music are the basic media people want to transfer between their phones and computers. (Computers in this sense are laptops, desktops, note books etc.) So the question to you was valid.
    >Also, have you tried any other computers?
    No. Again, I'm puzzled. What difference would another computer make? Would I be able to find a download from one computer that I can't find from another? (Only by blind chance.) Might another computer be able to execute or load a file with no filetype? (Only if it has magical powers.)
    Different computers may work where the computer you own evidently does not work. It is good to check the connection of the device to another computer to rule that out. I will answer the obvious of different operating systems and how they function.
    >And which software version if your phone currently running?
    That question makes sense. Unfortunately I can't answer it. I've looked up how to find the version number, and the instructions tell me to select an "About phone" item in the Settings menu, which doesn't exist.
    Doesn't exist? open the Settings Menu go all the way to the bottom (scroll down) the last entry is "ABOUT PHONE" click it. It will give hardware and software versions operating system number etc. Its there trust me. My wife just bought this phone and loves it.
    >Often times, the device drivers you're prompted to install are supported solely by the computer's software.
    I'm not sure what you're saying here. Taken at face value, it's a trivial and obvious: any driver that one installs on any computing device is supported solely by (i.e., depends on) the device's software. But how does that relate to the question about the version of Android? Android runs on the phone; the driver has to run on the computer.
    You stated you are using an older Windows XP computer, I can tell you I hooked my wife's phone to our Windows 8.1 computer and no drivers were necessary. It came up with an option on the phone screen and I chose USB Mass Storage for the connection. This option is also in the phones settings. Read the manual it has loads of information form you to use.
    The device had a drive letter assigned and it was labeled LG-Network and once you double click it the folders for music, photos, etc. are all there. Via using windows manager you can simply do a copy and paste to and from the different folders and drives with ease.
    Good Luck

  • How Can I get v1.52 of "ThinkPad Power Management driver for Windows"?

    The subject says it all: How can I get v1.52 of the "ThinkPad Power Management driver for Windows Vista, XP, 2000, Me, 98 SE - ThinkPad" driver? Since installing v1.53 I've been experiencing screen issues (screen goes dark, and it's very hard to get the screen brightness back to normal) that seem to be tied to my T40p entering sleep mode / turning off the screen.
    I want to see if reverting back to v1.52 fixes these problems.

  • Tecra 8200: I can't install Wlan driver for Windows XP

    Hello ,
    i can't find wireless driver for windows xp. I have Tecra 8200. I try to install a lot of drivers of the official page of Toshiba for Tecra 8200 but the drivers do not work.
    If anyone know how i can install wireless in my tecra 8200, please let me know.

    Hi
    Firstly what I want say is the Tecra 8200 was not delivered with Windows XP and you will not find any Wlan drivers for WinXP on the Toshiba website.
    I have checked it and there are only drivers for W2k, NT, and W98SE.
    But as far as I know the unit was delivered with the ORiNOCO specification Wlan miniPCI Card Wireless LAN standard: 802.11b
    In this case I would recommend searching in the net for such drivers.
    Unfortunately, this is all what I can suggest.

    Please advise how to update driver for W7 as it is not available on the HP site.

    Hi:
    Did you try the Vista driver?  Normally they work fine for W7.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-69143-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...=
    Another thing you can try is to be connected to the internet. Click on the audio controller in the device manager. Click on the Driver tab.  Click on Update Driver and select the automatic search.
    Sometimes W7 will pull down a driver from the Windows Update site.
    If the above 2 suggestions don't work, try this driver which seems to be the same as the Vista one, but for Windows 7.
