Can't install or find HP Deskjet D1400 series 4.0.4 driver for iMac OS X Mavericks

Just purchased a new iMac December 2014 OS X Maverick (I do not want to update to Yosemite). I tried installing my HP Deskjet d1400 series printer via usb port, when I tried printing nothing happens. Though, I can print as usual from my 2011 Macbook Air OS X Mountain lion.


I noticed that when installing the printer on the iMac the specific driver was not listed. I tried hp's website for the driver download (http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=4142&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&s w_lang=&product=3311793#N195), but there was no download available for the mac, only instructions on how to install using OS X. When I checked the apple website for the printer compatibility list, (OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download - Apple Support) it list the printer as being compatible but gives the instruction to do a software update, before installing a printer.


Again, I do not want Yosemite! Is it possible to install this printer without updating? Please advise.

MacBook Air
