    Ho una vecchia stampante hp laserjet 1010, di cui non ho i driver originali, che ho cercato di installare su di un LAPTOP-J3SI2AD3 lenovo, senza successo. Penso di avere installato, aiutandomi con alcuni filmati su you tube, i driver della stampante hp laserjet 3050 PLC ma la stampante è in errore ed ogni tanto stampa un foglio con la scritta unsupportable personality unknown. Ieri, sempre seguendo tutorial, sono riuscito a stampare alcuni fogli prima che uscisse la scritta unsupportable personality PCL. Il sistema operativo è windows 10 64-bit.
    Anticipatamente ringrazio.
