Hi all; Just upgraded Tiger to Snow Leopard 10.6.6 on an Intel Mac. After a few application blips one remains. Mac is connected via USB to HP printer. Always worked well.
Now in any app with Snow Leopard I often receive message "waiting for printer to become available" - Snow sees the printer but does not use it. I have verified the correct driver is bundled into Snow.
I have reinstalled Snow once and several times I have trashed the HP folder in the Library + reset printer list in Preferences to remove the printer and then run Software Update. This always retrieves and HP update for Snow and adds the printer back into Preferences list.
Often this will get the printer to work but then, power down, power up and same problem occurs. Four Senior Advisors have been unable to resolve this permanently. Now Apple wants me to erase the drive and reinstall SL. Don't want to go that far.
Any thoughts? Thanks.
