Don't forget HP have a web site which holds the latest printer
drivers and some notes associated with each type of printer.

The web site is:

   http://www.hp.com/

The index page for printers is:

   http://www.hp.com/cposupport/cpoindex.html

Besides, it gives you an excuse for some serious net surfing
whilst you try to download the latest drivers :-)
