Before we dive into the specifics of installing and updating your HP DeskJet Ink Advantage 3787 printer driver, let's first define what a driver is and why it's important.
A driver is a piece of software that allows your computer and printer to communicate with each other. Without a driver, your computer wouldn't be able to recognize and communicate with your printer, rendering it useless.
