Unsupported Personality PCL HP Laserjet 1010 Windows 10

bytewizard56

I'm trying to set up an HP LaserJet 1010 printer on a Windows 10 system, but I keep encountering an "Unsupported Personality: PCL" error message. This printer is quite old, and I realize it might not be fully compatible with Windows 10. However, I'm wondering if anyone has found a workaround or a driver update that could help manage this issue. Any suggestoins or tips would be greatly appreciated!

I've encountered a similar issue in the past with older HP printers. One workaround that might support is using a different driver. For the HP LaserJet 1010, try installing the HP LaserJet 3055 PCL5 driver instead. This driver often works for older models on Windows 10 systems. You can download it directly from HP's official website or through Windows Update as an optional update. Additionally, ensure that you're running the printer in compatibility mode for an earlier version of Windows, like Windows 7, which might solve the issue as well. Good luck!
