Try these steps to install the printer:
Go to Start, then control panel, then printers and faxes, then add printer.
When the Add printer wizard starts up, click on "Next", then click on the box (or circle) next to "Local printer attached to this computer", and uncheck the box that says "Automatically detect and install my Plug and Play printer".
Click "Next".
In the next window select the port that you want to use (usually LPT1) and click "Next". THEN the list of printers window should pop up. On the left side, scroll down to "HP" and click on "HP" to select it. When you do that, on the right side, a list of HP printers will show up.
Scroll down the list of printers on the right side until you see the "HP LaserJet IIIP. Select this printer and click "Next". Windows will install the driver.
