Today i unistalled
everything HP from my win7-hp(homePremium).
Everything from this update: HP-SF_CDA_NonNet_Full_Win_WW_130_140.exe
and
i tried to install the (HP-D1341-)driver_only_webpack_enu_NB.exe
from HP website, but it claimed my computer wasn't compatible
with the driver above, because it wasn't a win98 or winXP computer.

Anyways, just in case the driver did get installed,
I tried to print locally. And voila, i could print locally.
Then I plugged the printer into N750db usb.
And strangely enough, it printed there too.
Anyways, I think that tomorrow i'll try to network both laptops to N750Db.

The driver name that shows on my win7-hp is
HP Deskjet D1300 series (61.63.247.0).
?? Is there a way to save this current DRIVER to cd or flashDrive. ??

These driver files seem to be sprinkled here:
C:\windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\hppipnss.inf_amd64_neutral_2a65bd00299a2df6
and here:
C:\windows\System32\spool\drivers\x64\3

Thanks...vmars

Also I am getting confused because HP is normally Hewlett-Packard and apparently is the maker of your printer but you also seem to be abbreviating W7 Home Premium as W7-HP. The fact is it doesn't matter whether your computer is Home Premium, Professional, or Ultimate. What can matter is whether it is 32-bit or 64-bit but that installer you used is for both 32 and 64-bit so perhaps it simply did not install correctly.

FYI: driver_only_webpack_enu_NB is for Windows XP. From what I've read basic deskjet functionality should be built into the W7 OS.

So next time or on another computer I would go to Control Panel > Programs and Features and simply uninstall HP photo essentials and any other HP software that may have installed. Then make sure the printer is plugged into the computer and turned on. Go to Control Panel > Devices and Printers. If your printer is not in the list then choose Add a Printer ... Add a local Printer ... etc.

Anyway it sounds like you have it currently. There should be no need to save that driver to a CD/flashdrive.

Yes, I confuse myself sometimes
by "win7-HP" i mean windows7-HomePremium.
I have seen "win7-HP" used on other forums.
I tried to be consistent, but may have messed up.

Anyways, I uninstalled ALL HP software.
And all is well.
Thanks all, for your help!...Vernon

I wouldn't say you messed up, acronyms can often mean several things, but I found having two HPs in the same post a bit confusing at times.

Glad you got it worked out.
