Hi. I've gost looked in my Win XP's known printers list and I found that win XP has generic drivers for HP DJ 640. In conclusion U don't need to install something.
Jost plug it in on USB or LPT1 (lpt1 - when conecting to the PC, the printer should be off) and when XP asks for the drivers, select it from the list...

Good Luck.

Bottom of page is cut off sometimes printing from vista computer

Hi- I'll try to solve this.

Go to the start menu and open the Control Panel. Double click on Printers. Right click the L7580 printer and choose "Printing Preferences" On the preferences window click on the "Advanced" tab. Make sure "Advanced Printing Features" is set to "Enabled" Under "Printer Features" turn "Minimize Margins" to "On"

This should solve the issue. If minimize margins is off, it will cut it off at the bottom.
