Which HP printer? Do you have it connected through a network, or a direct connection?


immediately after posting my question it suddenly occurred to me that maybe a reinstall of the Classic printing software might fix things, and it did! (Why it went wrong in the first place is another matter, since I certainly never *removed* any of that stuff).

HP's Mac drivers are fragile beasts. I have an HP all-in-one printer that is connected to a wireless network. For the first six months I had it, every time I restarted the computer after doing a software update, I would have to uninstall and then reinstall the HP software in OSX, to get the scanner feature working again. They finally updated the drivers a few months ago. At least twice it has quit speaking to the machine running OS 9.2.2, and I had to reinstall the Classic printing software to fix it.

Sigh... HP "used" to make some pretty good Mac compatible printers. I have an old HP660 DeskWriter that still runs like a top, connected to a 9600.
