HP Printers -  Installing the Printer Driver Located in Windows Vista

Introduction

At this time there is not a downloadable full-feature Windows Vista driver solution available for your product.

The short-term driver solution is included in your Windows Vista Operating system and is already on your computer. There is no need to download anything at this time. This driver makes it possible to use the basic functions for the printer and can be used until the full-feature driver is available. Follow the steps below to quickly and easily get your product working with Windows Vista.

HP is currently working to make the HP full-feature driver solution available as soon as possible.

I think Echo that if he downloads the HP Vista software and double clicks the program, it will completely self install.
Most do.
