Hi cbbarrett,

Welcome to the community.

This printer does not have the dedicated driver for Windows 7. You would either need to upgrade the printer that supports windows 7 or you can try the below link to download the generic driver:

If the generic driver listed above gets installed, then your printer will work with limited functionality.

Please let me know the findings.  Glad to help you.

cbbarrett,

First run Delete Print Jobs to remove any stuck print job in the queue.

Disconnect the printer.

Download and run the patch(printer cleanup utility) until it prompts you to restart your computer.

Restart your computer. Make sure the printer is removed. Manual Printer Driver Removal

Download the Vista 32-bit drivers for Windows 7 32-bit or the Vista 64-bit drivers for Windows 7 64-bit. Install the Vista drivers in the Vista Compatibility mode You'll get a message, the printer is not connected. Connect the printer at this time(powered on).
