I am trying to load an old printer on a computer 07 but he repeats to me not installed driver. any suggestions

I have a 07 computer and an older printer that I am trying to install. I don't have the software for the computer anylonger. I downloaded the driver from the Web site and tried to intall as a plug n play. my computer says that the driver is not installed. I can't understand how to solve this problem. Is this printer just to old for my new computer?

I suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the latest compatible drivers for Windows 7. Be sure to only install the driver before connecting the printer.

You can also run the troubleshooting of the printer.

Open the printer Troubleshooter

Open the printer Troubleshooter by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooting, and then click Troubleshooting. Under hardware and sound, click on use printer.
