Hi  Kelly,
I have this driver installed in my W 10 which I use to manipulate the driver to show how to set up Qimage using a Z3200.
Same driver number exactly.
Been looking for the install folder if there was one. Some of the HP drivers would install from a website without leaving residue.
Maybe Mike or someone a lot smarter than I can advise.
But at least you know I have  such driver running.

I'm a fan of obtaining legacy drivers, etc., and keeping them as backups, and this didn't sound right, you should have been able to download what MS thinks is the driver you want.  I went directly to the website https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Home.aspx.

In the search box on that page I just typed "hp 61.121.362.41" no quotes, nothing else, and saw a listing for that driver.  It looks like that version was primarily for pre-Win 10 oses, so I couldn't tell which one you wanted.  Anyway, I clicked on the top-most 44-in listing and was able to download it no problem, opened up the .cab file, and it looks normal to me -- for some undefined value of normal. 

If you tried to go through the MS Store, that might have cause a problem because MS wants you to use the current version.  So you might try going to the link above and see what that does.

Good luck.

I'm not sure Win 10 lets you do that anymore with printers, possibly a few other peripherals.

For me I'd go with the following with the .cab file (and similar compressed files):  unzip the contents to a temp directory then right click on the .inf file and select install.  I'm not positive, but I think it overwrites the existing driver installation; but it's still possible you might have to remove the first printer.  It's been a while since I've had to do that.  Also, it's possible you may need to be logged in as Admin.

You can also go to Settings -> Devices -> Printers & Scanners, click on your printer, then Manage -> Hardware properties.  That will open a small dialogue box for that printer.  Click on the Settings tab (not the change settings button), then click on the button labelled "Devices and Printers Folder"; that opens another new window, that shows all you printers (including PDF printers, etc), as well as fax devices.  In that window click on "Printer properties"; in that new windows, click on the advanced tab, click on "New Driver"; that should open the driver installation "wizard".   At one point you'll have to select the "Have Disk" option; you don't want to go to the Windows Store or you get the new and improved and updated driver.  Point to the directory (folder) where you unpacked the .cab file and you should be good to go.  There's probably a shortcut to this, but I think recent versions of Win 10 make it hard to find.  My opinion, others experience may vary.

Which is why I just right-click on the install option for the .inf file.

Fortunately, my Canon printer drivers install via an .exe so that's not an issue. 

MS keeps adding, removing and changing the ways things get done.  Some variation of the above procedure should work as long as your printer does, but with MS, who knows?

How many W 10 updates had you had recently?

Sorry, this is the first time I used the quote button... my reply is follows,

I don't know how check for number of Windows 10 updates I've had.  Based on Windows Specifications under "System Settings", I have Windows 10 Home version 2004 installed on 9/3/2020, so the last update was done back in September this year... hope that helps.

That's good to know.  I'll keep my eyes open when the next Windows update comes around.

Thanks,
Kelly
