OK, I went through this process of installing my HP Printer listed in the thread title. First I tried the HP disc and that did not work. I uninstalled the software. Then I tried simply plugging it in and letting Windows 7 find the right driver. It installed a driver but then it said there is a problem with it. I removed that and used HP's Printer Install Wizard. It could only find 4300 series drivers. These installed and it doesn't say there are issues. It prints a test page from the printer interface.
However, I cannot get it to print emails from Windows Live Mail at all. It won't even send the print job to the printer. It prints Word documents. I have not tried anything else yet.
What is up? What do I do to get this printer working on my Windows 7 64-bit PC? This is the Home Edition. Also, the HP site says there are no drivers at HP and not to use the disc. It says the Windows 7 OS has the drivers for it.
