HP PC 2175 All In One

I have a HP PC 2175 All In One printer. But do not have the CD to install it. The website for HP takes over 2 hours to download due to dial up. Is there any other faster sites? That are free of charge?

Try using the Windows HP Deskjet 990C print driver. This will should allow you to print only without the need to download anything.

On dialup you really don't have much choice but to suffer through the amount of time it takes to download. Using a driver for another model (as suggested) is a temporary fix at best. You really need the correct drivers to access al the printer's features. Have you got a friend with broadband that can download them for you?

If I get a friend to download for me.. How am I able to get it?

Get them to download it and then use either a CD to burn it or a flash drive - just some type of media to transport it on. You then copy the files tp your machine and run the setup program from it.
