Using XP Mode with HP Photosmart 8750
I recently bought a HP computer that uses Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit. My HP Photosmart 8750 worked great when I used my old computer that had my XP operating system. We all know that HP, for whatever reason, has decided not to support their 8750 printer when used with Win7. They offer no driver, only the one included with Win7. This is a $399 printer. The printer works great when I have the printer attached to my old computer with XP, but will not print graphics (which is why I bought it) when used with my new HP computer.
My question, finally: If I upgraded my copy of Win7 to Professional or Ultimate, and used XP mode, would my printer then work as if I was truly using my old computer with XP?
Thanks for any info anyone can offer.
