FAQ
Q: Driver install HP Laserjet 2840 Windows 7 - 64bit.
A: You can install the Windows Vista full driver in compatibility mode to print and scan in Windows 7, this is recommended by HP official website as well. But this will work only on 32bit OS. As you have windows 7 64bit OS, there is no driver available for windows 7.
Anyway, now we can try two more methods to install HP 2840 printer.
Method1 - Driver install using windows update
- Connect your HP Laserjet 2840 printer with the USB to your computer and make sure the printer is turned ON.
- Do update your windows and let it be downloaded and install the necessary updates. Your printer driver may be included in the updates.
Method2 - Driver install using lower / upper version drivers
Sometimes lower / upper version operating system's printer driver might work. So you can install HP 2840 windows 10 64bit Basic driver on your windows 7 64bit OS. Sometimes it works but you have to do it manually. Follow the following steps:
- Download the HP Laserjet 2840 Windows 10 basic driver's zip file. Extract the zip file to your preferred location. For an example my location is "C:hp_laserjet_2840_windows10_64bit_dot4_driversHP"
- Now install the printer manually using "Add a Printer" option in printer's page. And follow it's on-screen instructions to install the printer. When it will ask you to provide the driver's path, then give the path where you have extracted the zip file. In my case it is "C:hp_laserjet_2840_windows10_64bit_dot4_driversHP" then follow it's on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
