Trying to install HP LaserJet Series (multiple, such as 4000, 4200, 4300) PCL5 drivers and it is returning the error:
Windows Cannot connect to the printer. Operation failed with error 0x0000057

However if I try and run a pnputil -d oem41.inf it returns:
C:\Users\username>pnputil -d oem41.inf
Microsoft PnP Utility
Deleting the driver package failed :The system cannot find the file specified.
This worked for the HP Universal Driver PCL6 that was having the same problem, but not for any of the HP LaserJet PCL5's.
Suggestions?
