HP Laserjet 4/4 plus printer driver not working on win10

[ChrisDziewior]

I am trying to install my network attached HP LaserJet 4 plus printer on my new Win10/64 laptop. I go through the process and point to the correct IP address, create the port, use Windows Update, select the correct printer, name the printer, and when the driver tries to load, I get a message that says: "Print Driver Not Installed", and it returns to the name the printer screen. I was able to install the driver by downloading it from the MS Update catalog web page (Microsoft Update Catalog), but you would think it would work using the windows update button when installing the printer since it lists the correct printer. It seems to be an issue with that particular printer, as my HP Color LaserJet 2600n installed as it should from windows update. Any Ideas?
