Re: ~wrs error messages
HP has been promising a fix and has just released a temporary one. It's
fairly simple and seems to be working:
1-Open Printers, 2-Identify the default printer (HP printer with a check
mark), 3-Right-click any other non-HP printer listed and click ark in its
icon, 4-If no other printers are listed, click Add a printer and follow the
steps in the Add Printer wizard to set up a non-HP printer as the default
printer on your computer, 5-Close the Printer window, 6-Open the MS Office
'07 program you were using when the problem occurred and check to see if the
problem has gone away. If not, repeat the previous steps, 7-Try printing to
your HP printer. (Until a permanent solution, printing to your HP requires
specifying the printer each time you start a print job.)
This seemed to work for me the first time, so good luck.

The necky gits! So HP have now trespassed onto our Newsgroup and stolen our
workaround!

Re: ~wrs error messages
Missed that. I guess that step should say, select as the default printer or
something to that effect.
