Hey folks, I'm looking for a printer driver for an HP LaserJet 4050 for 10.8 Mountain Lion.
Officially, HP doesn't support this printer/OS configuration.
What's likely to be the best place to look to check if the driver has been updated?
It's been so damn long since I looked for printer drivers for OS X I just don't know where to look.

CUPS? Common Unix Printing Solution ( or System) may help.

Review the following list for monochrome LaserJet printers and printer series that are supported in OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, OS X 10.7 Lion, and Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.

NOTE:The following model names and numbers reference the HP printer series, which vary by worldwide region. They might not match the specific name and number on your printer.

The printer is being used wirelessly, does it need to be AirPrint compatible to be used in this way with Mountain Lion?

With the release of OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, HP is providing updated print drivers and software for your printer. These updates are available through Apple Software Update . You do not need to download a driver from HP to use your printer with Mountain Lion.


So, I guess, it should be in an update.

Cheers man.
This is all being done via remote support, so not the most ideal of situations for me, but thanks for the help.
