So 1015 drivers will work but I did the install through Windows add printer as stated earlier in this thread and seems Win7 offers support for this legacy printer. If you look on the HP website, they show the most recent drivers only for Vista 圆4 but the drivers are for the HP Laserjet 1010, 1012, 1015. By the way, I chose Generic IEEE 1284.4 as the printer port (See comment below) I did the intstall and it is working on my Win7 圆4 machine and Office 2010. But after the update there it was "HP Laserjet 1015". Had to use Windows update at the bottom of the install printer driver window because the HP Laserjet 1015 was not on the list of HP printers. Win 7 X64 works with my Trusty HP Laserjet 1012. Has anyone checked out their cloud strategy in any depth? The world is changing and it seems to be falling behind. With such decisions, falls the House of Printers. It wasn't about numbers on a spreadsheet, it was about brand credibility. So, go for it guys, and if anyone from HP is reading this, perhaps you should let the dumb-ass product managers know so that they know one small impact of their myopic decision. And the satisfaction that I'm not giving any more money to the HP eco-system.Īs for my trusty Laserjet 1012, I can recycle that with a friend or relative that still uses Windows XP and some recommendations about acceptable quality HP compatible cartridges so that HP doesn't profit. So I have a much improved home office environment, a lower cost printing solution that actually works, and an energy friendly and technologically superior solution that doesn't piss me off every day. The upside, I have a new upgraded WIFI enabled printer with Consumer Reports recommendations, no more constant irritations or the need to associate HP with impolite language and crude sexual suggestions. The cost, <$100 bucks for the printer including a new cartridge (excluding sales tax). Now I can proudly say I am an HP free household. No way am I buying HP toner at around $50 or more a pop for something that doesn't work. Although the printer is just fine it keeps giving the dreaded "unsupported personality" error when it's buffer fills up once or twice a day.

Let's see, HP has made it totally clear that there will be no LJ1012 Windows 7 driver support.
