Without knowing what your 'sign of troubleshooting' means or what you mean by 'ran through it but good results,' I suggest completely uninstalling and reinstalling the printer as follows.

Thus, assuming that your problem is a driver - which is not at all clear from your very limited description - the best way to get the proper driver is to use Windows Update as described below. On the other hand, Windows Update does have drivers for the HP 1100 up to and including Windows 10. The drivers offered at the HP support link for your printer ( HP LaserJet 1100 Printer series Software and Driver Downloads | HP® Customer Support)ĭo not include any Windows 7 drivers (my Windows 7 system is detected as 'Windows NT' - it's possible that the driver for NT 4.0 would work, but that's not guaranteed).
