printer installation failed

Setting up a printer should be simple, but things don’t always go as expected. If your printer installation failed or you receive an error message stating that the printer driver is not available, do not worry—you are not alone. These troubles are frequently caused by obsolete drivers, wrong settings, or compatibility conflicts. The good news is that with the proper steps, you can get your printer up and running. In this article, we’ll walk you through adding your printer correctly, installing the necessary driver, and troubleshooting typical installation difficulties so you can begin printing without any further complications.

Step 1-To fix the error message that says “printer driver is not available,” first, open the settings or control panel on your computer.

Step 2– Click on the Bluetooth and devices section on the left side menu.

Step 3– Select printers and scanners from the menu.

Step 4– As shown in the image below, you would see a blue button on the right side of the tab. Click on the Add device button, and the printer installation failed issue will be fixed.

Step 5– If the printer is not added and the printer says driver is unavailable, then close the window and go to the start menu and open the control panel.

Step 6– Below the Hardware and Sound option, you will find the Add a device option in the sub-menu, and click on it.

Step 7– When your device name comes up, select it, click on next, and then follow the instructions to fix the “printer driver is not available” error.

If your printer installation failed despite following the procedures, or if your printer says driver is unavailable regardless of what you do, it may be time to seek professional assistance.
