HP LaserJet 1020 drivers for MacOSX Lion 10.7

Hi,
I'm trying to add LaserJet 1020 to MacOSX 10.7 (Lion).
According to this page this printer is supported by Apple and its driver comes with OS. But when I'm adding the printer in the "Print & Scan" it says that the driver for this printer is NOT available from Apple.
Does anybody know how to use this printer on MacOSX?
Thanks,
Alexander

The insistence on HP's part that the 1020 was never supported on Mac is utter poppycock. The Laserjet 1020 was advertised and sold as being Mac compatible. I bought mine from an authorized Mac dealer, and still have the original box with the "Mac Compatible" sticker on it. I've been running the 1020 with my iMac G5 for 5+ years and never had any support problems until I bought an OS X Lion iMac this past week. The refusal to support this product is nothing more than a money grab to force users to buy new equipment, despite owning an otherwise fully functional printer.
Luckily, you can run the 1020 on Lion using the 1022 driver. Follow the instructions at the top of the following link, and read the extra step for Lion in comment #63. Use the 1.3 1022 printer driver, and you should have no trouble getting your printer to work.

    I am Trying To Open That Link But It Couldnt Open. What Sh'd I Do ?

    Hi RohitDee,
    I understand by your post that you can't open a link for the printer drivers.
    I can help you with this.
    I am not sure what link you were trying to open.
    There are no drivers available for this model for a Mac.
    The operating system supported only with this model is for Windows.
    Here is a link for the Product Specifications.
    This Product Is Not Supported in Any Macintosh Environment.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • How to install (not update) the HP LaserJet 1020/1022 on Mountain Lion? The Apple Software Update doesn't show nothing.

    Hi guys,
    I'm trying to install my HP LaserJet 1020 on my new Mountain Lion anyway I'm not able to find any driver! The HP says that I can update or install this printer using the Apple Software Update anyway I don't see any update or installation on it.
    Does someone know a way to download a driver or find a solution for this problem? With previous version of the OS It was possible to download a .dmg for the HP LaserJet 1022 (the driver was the same for both versions, 1020 and 1022). I tried to download and install the driver for Snow Leopard anyway I don't see any entry when I try to select a driver for my printer during the installation phase (the list contain only two very generic drivers for HP printers).
    Thanks for your time!

    The HP says that I can update or install this printer using theApple Software Update anyway I don't see any update or installation on it.
    Updates are only available if the software has already been installed.
    HP is responsible for updating their drivers for Mountain Lion compatibility. Not Apple.
    Doubtful the driver for Snow Leopard will run on Mountain Lion.

    Hi,
    The Laserjet 1020 officialy not compatible with Mountain Lion, however you may try using the following workaround:
    Install the HP Printer Drivers 2.9 package by clicking the Download button below:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
    After completing the installation, go to System PReferences > Print & Fax.
    Click the Plus sign and select the printer.
    If you still see a Generic driver selected, click the Use drop-down and then click Select Printer Software.
    From the list, select the HP Laserjet 1022 and add the printer.
    Now try printing using the configured print queue.

  • HP still doesn't have Print drivers for Mountain Lion?

    A couple of months ago, I upgraded my MBP (mid-2008; 2.4 GHZ) to Mountain Lion.  I am now running OS X 10.8.2.  Once I completed the upgrade, I discovered that I was unable to print to my networked HP Laser printer  (It is an HP LaserJet P1606dn).  The printer appears as one of the selectable printers, but there is a message stating that I need software from the manufacturer in order to print.  So, I checked HPs website and discovered that the product is unsupported in Mountain Lion, but that "a software update is to be issued in Fall 2012".  I just checked their website again, and here is what I found on the product support page:
    Product Supported Soon in OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion
    HP is committed to providing the best product experience for the OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion operating system. 
    Today, a solution for your printer is not available for Mountain Lion. However, a driver update will be available in 2013 .
    HP aspires to provide the most up-to-date information on HP drivers and software. Please check back for updates.
    Has anyone found, or know of, a work-around for this issue?  I have not been able to use this printer from my MBP since upgrading.  Once I disovered this limitation, I defered upgrading our iMac to 10.8, so that I am able to print from at least one of our computers.   Appreciate any solutions anybody may have found to this limitation.  It seems unfathomable to me that HP could have a mainstream product like this NOT supported in 10.8, especially since the operating system has been on the market for many months.  And to state that the driver will be "available in 2013" is grossly unacceptable.  We'll be on 10.9 by the time they get around to updating their drivers for 10.8.

  • Laserjet 4200 drivers for Windows 7 64bit

    ok...ive upgraded to Windows 7 64bit to test on our network and come to find HP is lacking on the drivers for my laserjet!!!
    I need a solution for this.
    thank you

    In Windows 7 Prof 64 bit I got my HP 4200DTN to work kind of. In Windows install a network printer, have it look for the driver in Windows 7 prof 64 bit. Now with that said it will make it print, duplex  BUT if you have an envelope feeder like I do you are SOL, THANKS TO HP. Their solutions is to buy one of their cheap Chinese printers. I will not do that because the HP 4200DTN will print and does a good job in my network. Before I buy one of their cheap Chinese piece of crap I will get rid of Windows. Still trying to find a work around. The HP printer driver web page has a Universal Printer Driver for the HP 4200 but a lot of features are not supported. Tray 1 envelope feeder ( no support ) you can take the feeder off and feed tray 1 by hand to print envelopes HANDY!!! Just like starting your car with a crank!!! Would not hurt HP to provide drivers for the HP4200DTN, with the envelope feeder. They are so busy trying to SELL, SELL, SELL the new Chinese cheap crap. HP had a problem with their DeskJets in the 90's, paper feed rollers and gears broke. They talked me into a HP 8600Pro Premium, going to send it back. I am going to try my hand at fixing my HP OfficeJet 7310 All-In-One that quit working. It has been a good printer since purchase 6 years ago.  I puchased a parts machine today. With any kind of luck I will have the needed parts to make my HP 7310 live. Don't need their cheap Chinese Junk. They don't want to have the service they used to provide. Spend all day on the phone and get transfered all over the world and back again, no help. Sick of it!

  • HP LaserJet P1505 Drivers for Win 8

    I have a new computer with Win 8 and my HP LaserJet P1505 printer does not work because of missing drivers. Does anyone know where i can get drivers for this printer for Win 8 or do I have to buy a printer that is not HP?
    Thanks Paul

    Hi Paul,
    I afraid the P1505 currently not yet supported on Windows 8.
    According the official statement a driver should be available till the end of 2012, I would believe it will be a bit dilayed and will become available in several weeks.
    Please check the following link in the near feature, as soon as the driver will become available you will be able to download it from that page.

  • Need help installing internet drivers for OS Lion

    Howdy all! My question is in regards to the download and installation of internet drivers for a 2011 MacBook Pro running Lion. The wi-fi airport works and recognizes available networks, but I am unable to connect to the internet.
    Are there any particular sites you might recommend to download internet drivers for this model and OS?
    Thank you for your time!

    acolverson1,
    are you also unable to connect to the internet by trying your MacBook Pro at a different site, say, somewhere that offers free wi-fi? Do you have access to a different computer, to see if that different computer would be able to connect to the internet by using the wi-fi that you have at home? It sounds as though you haven’t yet determined where the cause lies yet, whether it’s with your MacBook Pro, your router, or  your internet service provider.
