HP LJ-1020 won't install
When I connect my USB cord, the printer shows in the "Unspecified" devices, rather than the "Printers"
I downloaded HP latest package from August 2015. I also tried my original CD. Both don't recognize my LJ-1020 as a printer and won't complete installation.
I also tried another cable and USB port. No difference.
From Device Manager, I found my LJ-1020 under the "Other Devices", I also tried "Update Driver", it eventually HP 2012.918.1.57980, but then fails "Windows encountered a problem..."
Of course I did all of this using Windows 7 and Administrator compatibility mode .
Am I out of luck with this printer?
EDIT: I tried "Add a printer" and it eventually added my LJ-1020 in printers. But I am unable to print anything and when I turn on my printer, it also shows in the "Unspecified" devices.
