Did you install the latest 9.7.1 drivers: <http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os=219&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=439488&lang=en > > I replied that I am advising my friend to buy a new printer and make > sure that it is not an HP! It has been a downfall for HP, at least for printers & Mac OS X. The old printers were the gold standard, bomb proof almost. Now, the OS X software just doesn't work and the new printers are a giant hassle. I think I reinstall the drivers and "add printer" at least 50% of the time I need to print with a newer HP printer. They still use installers from the OS 9 days on Leopard 10.5. The permissions are always screwed up. I think your advise to buy a new printer is good advise, but I don't know what to buy? I suspect Korean laser printers perhaps? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
