Simply plug it in and turn it on.  If the printer is supported by Windows will detect it and install the drivers automatically.

Some older printers are often difficult to find drivers for, especially for the newest versions of Windows (just ask my dad about his old HP plotter... actually, probably better you dont :-)  )

This particular printer has drivers you can download from HP for almost every version of Windows.  See this link to download the drivers.  https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/hp-color-laserjet-cp1000-printer-series/model/3422475
