All that Apple does is package the vendor-supplied drivers into a single driver 
bundle, so if HP hasn’t updated the driver since 2006, the driver in the newly 
supplied Apple package should not have changed (if it was included at all). 
Apple’s web page for the driver update SHOULD list all the printers included in 
the package.

However, if HP hasn’t updated the driver in ten years, that means the printer 
is > 10 years old; it might be time to send it to that farm upstate where it 
can play with all the other old printers :-/ or just use it with your old 
computer.
