>> How to get a new printer driver >>
Some drivers ship with Windows, are available through Windows Update, or are saved to your computer through the hardware installation process and are ready to install. In other cases, you'll need to install drivers using a CD or DVD provided by the printer manufacturer. To install these drivers, follow the steps for using the Printers folder. If the driver you need is not already stored on your computer or if you don't have a CD or DVD, try searching the printer manufacturer's website to see if you can download and install it from there.
You can almost always find the most current version of your printer’s driver software on the manufacturer’s website under “support” (even if your particular model has been recently discontinued).
If you don’t have access to the Internet, call the manufacturer directly and request that a new driver be mailed to you on CD.
Besides, you can search and download new drivers from driver download site free of charge, Open Drivers .
