I've had troubles finding drivers for my HP DeskJet F4185 on Windows 7, disappointing.

These don't work?

It's been a while since I've used this sort of old style forum format. Does anyone know where I go in settings to place my little anecdote at the bottom of my posts? Somebody must know as I see so many using them. I like jadinolf's "This post printed on 100% recycled bytes" C'mon peeps, give an old, half-blind guy a hand here.

Oh, and to stay on topic, my daughter is still using XP and loving it.

There should be an "edit Signature" option on your User Control Panel (UserCP) although it is a delayed option that is only available after a number of posts, I forget how many at the moment

I thanks ye kindly. Love your profile pic. I'll be putting mine in when i finally find it in this maze of 2TB of unorganized claptrap. Looks like I have a bit of posting to do as I can't find it in the signature option at this stage in the game.

Weird...It took them long just to push the driver to Windows 7 just last year. Was nervous about re-installing my OS because I couldn't find drivers for such printer. Problem Solved

Windows XP MEDIA EDITION still going strong here on an old HP Desktop. Didn't have the heart to dispose of it so handed it off to the 8 year old. I love it when a plan comes together.

You might want to burn a CD with those drivers to keep on hand just to stay on the safe side though. Microsoft loves to do anything to encourage us to move on to the next o/s.
