I upgraded from Tiger to Leopard, and had two HP IP
printers (wireless). They disappeared. I connected
them via their USB ****ts to get them recognized again,
I want to be sure the proper drivers are loaded via
hardwire before trying the wireless IP add.
The OS configured them behind the scenes. I printed
to the HP DeskJet 832c and the printout had extra
page feeds in it so part printed, part on the next
page, etc.
I printed to the HP LaserJet 5MP, and it seems fine.
Now Googling about the Leopard install, I see that
networked printers were expected to disappear, and
that if you wanted the HP drivers loaded, you had to
have an HP printer connected during the upgrade.
I didn't.
They say:
"there is a Custom install option available on the
Mac OS X v10.5 DVD to install the full HP driver set."
I looked in the optional installs on the disk and don't
see it. How do I load this?
Am I correct in thinking I need to install this, delete
the two printers it has now, replug them in to the
USB ****ts and it will configure them with the proper
drivers?
If not, what should I do?
Thanks, John
