Install an HP 1018 LaserJet Printer on Win10 64bit (USB or USB to router) Hey team, This old printer works great on my Surface Pro 3 (Win 10, not sure if 32 or 64 bit) and older systems but I'm having trouble getting it to print on a Win 10 Home edition 64bit system.
Hi Kartikey. I'm Greg, an installation specialist and 9 year Windows MVP here to help you.
Never use WIndows Update to obtain printer drivers because it requires the full Printer software and there is often newer firmware that the printer needs to operate correctly.
Rather than spending too much more time fiddling I'd simply Clean Install the printer which always works, lasts longer and actually saves time:
1) Power up the printer, if wired unplug it's USB cable from PC.
2) Go to Settings>Apps>Apps and Features to find and Uninstall any printer software.
3) Use one of these methods to remove all of the old printer drivers:

4) Now type Control Panel in Start Search, open CP, choose Icon View. In Control Panel open Devices and Printers, right click printer to delete Printer and any scanner or fax of the same name. Restart PC.
5) Go to the printer model’s Support Downloads webpage to download and install the latest full software package. Now is also the time to check for any newer printer firmware to install which matters a lot.
6) Extract Printer software, right click Setup file to Run as Administrator. Follow the setup screens closely as you install the software. For USB it should prompt when to plug in the printer.
Older software may need to be installed in Compatibility Mode to run correctly: https://www.groovypost.com/howto/run-old-softwa...
