Today I managed to get a current MacBook to print on a 10 year old HP printer. Why the fuss? HP’s “Easy Install” can not find the driver. Last week the same app had no trouble but I guess we’re used to unexplained failing in the realm of laserprinters. The “Easy Admin” then did manage to find the right driver. There must be parallel streams at HP, doing things, not doing others, separate and uncoordinated. #hp #laserprinter #grumble
