Hp 1020 on Windows 7

Anybody got a problem with HP Laserjet 1020 printer and Windows 7 like I did ? All drivers fails to install ? Well here is a solution:

  • Download Windows Vista drivers from HP website
  • Unzip installation drivers to folder
  • Right-mouse click on lj1020_1022-HB-pnp-win32-enp.exe
  • Choose Properties
  • Go to Compatibility Tab
  • Tick on “Run this program in compatibility mode for” Windows Vista
  • Press OK
  • Start Install
  • Install might take longer than normal, but that worked for me, needed to pull usb cable in and out.

Hope that helps someone.
