How to install a HP Laserjet 5100tn printer on my MacBook Pro (Mac OS X 10.9.3)?
It seems that there is no driver available, and I've seen some old printer running on latests OS.
Could you please help?
MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2011), OS X Mavericks (10.9.3)

What happens when you try to add it to System Preferences/Print & Scan?

Can you describe the seemingness in more detail? What did you do; what happened; and what didn't happen?
What were the error messages?
The 5100 should run fine in Mavericks. In fact, it will run fine with a Generic PostScript PPD. No special "drivers" needed.
Hello,
On the PREFERENCES > PRINTERS AND SCANNERS window, the printer is here show as inactive, with a green light.
But when I try to print out (even a really light document), the light turns orange, saying that the printer is working.
On an other window, it says "printing on - connecting to the printer"... but nothing happens.
I've also tried with the driver rcommanded by Esquared… same non-result.
Could you please help?
It still doesn't work.
It says:
"configuration of "HP Laserjet 5100 Series (0001E6AEAA9F)…"
(loading bar)
"configuration"
And it could run like this for hours, nothing happens…
