Installing Printer Driver without the printer

some printers cant be installed without the physical printer connected to the computer which can be very annoying especially when you need to install the drivers in different laptops at different location.

some drivers will allow you to skip the printer detection or you can choose to install without the printer itself but i have come across with hp color laserjet 2600n, it doesnt have an option for you to skip or installing printer manually so what i did was I installed it through "ADD A PRINTER" option in printer/faxes option.

uncheck the plug and play detection and browse the driver from the option. you should be able to install the printer driver from there.

Goood lucky!!
