unable to install hp printers

with HP printers, if you attached them to the puter and turn them on, ubuntu will automatically recognize them and install the required drivers for you.

thank you for the reply. this i have already tried on all 4 of my
desktops. the 2 newer IBM;s and my 2 older dell and hp desktops. none of
them have attempted to locate and install any drivers. with the
exception of my netvista. it tried and looked for drivers but the
message said unable to support printer, and no drivers found. so im
still wiyhout print cababilitys.
