Download HP DeskJet 2700 driver on Windows 11,10, 8, and 7

Device drivers are essential software that helps different hardware components run smoothly on your system. The most common reason for a printer not printing is a damaged, outdated, or missing driver. Therefore, if you find that your HP DeskJet 2700 printer device is malfunctioning recently, you need to update the driver.

Whether you are updating your HP DeskJet 2700 driver or other DeskJet 2700 series printer drivers, the three methods in this article apply to you.

Method 1: Update HP DeskJet 2700 driver in Device Manager

If you have a hardware problem with your system, it is most likely a device driver problem. For devices connected to the system, such as USB mice, the printer can usually automatically check whether new drivers are available for these devices. For example, Microsoft’s own device manager can find and update hardware drivers.

Device Manager is a component of the Microsoft Windows operating system. It allows users to view and control the hardware connected to the computer. When a piece of hardware is not working, the problematic hardware is highlighted for user action. So, you can follow the steps listed below to update your HP DeskJet 2700 driver via Device Manager:

Step 1: Right-click the Start icon and click Device Manager to open the Device Manager panel.

Step 2: Expand Print queues, and then find and right-click HP DeskJet 2700(or HP DeskJet 2752/2724/2722/2755).

Tips: HP DeskJet 2700e is an all-in-one series, so no matter whether you want to update HP DeskJet 2700 driver or other DeskJet 2700 series printer drivers, you can find them in Print queues.

Step 3: Click Update driver.

Step 4: Choose the option Search automatically for drivers.

Step 5: Follow the on-screen instructions to install the updated driver.

Step 6: Restart your computer.

If the printer, scanner, speakers or any hardware device connected to the PC is not working properly, you may want to run a scan of your computer with Driver Booster to check if your current drivers are corrupt, mismatched, or outdated.

Driver Booster will quickly spot corrupt and outdated drivers and find the latest versions that exactly match your system and device. The driver database supports over 8.5 million devices and drivers from over 1200 major brands. In addition, the driver source is from the original hardware manufacturer, and has passed the Microsoft WHQL test and IObit test.

Follow the steps below to update HP DeskJet 2700 driver automatically with Driver Booster:

Step 1: Download, install and run Driver Booster on Windows 11 or Windows 10.

Step 2: Click the icon Scan.

Then Driver Booster will start to detect all the drivers, and it will inform you of the number of outdated drivers and not installed game drivers.

Step 3: Find out HP DeskJet 2700 and click the icon Update next to the driver.

Step 4: Wait for the updating to be completed.

Tips:

And if you have other printers connected to your PC, such as HP DeskJet 2710/ 2732/2723, you can also use Driver Booster to update all outdated drivers automatically from the vendors by clicking the option Update Now at the top right.

Method 3: Update HP DeskJet 2700 driver on the official site

Of course, the methods of downloading the latest drivers are not limited to the first two. To obtain them, you can also visit the official HP website.
