    You thought you would? Its 2000 or earlier hardware.

    I'd be surprised if a driver was necessary.

    Using the printer's control panel, a test/configuration page or the printer menu, can you identify whether the printer now has an IP address?

    In Windows 10, in Control Panel, Printers and Scanners, after a few seconds delay as it searches, the option link "The Printer I want isn't listed" will appear. Click it, and you'll get the option to "Add Printer".

    Choose "Add a printer using a TCP/IP address or Hostname", hit Next.
    Provide the IP address or hostname that you got from the printer control pane or test page.

    Windows 10 should identify from there that it is talking to a HP 4050, and configure the driver.

    use the hp universal driver for windows 10.
    i checked the compatibility list and the laserjet 2500, 2550 and 2605 models are all support, so id expect it will work okay.
