Regarding this post: I think I found a workaround for this, or at least a driver that works for the HP photosmart 1215. The 7200 is very close to being the same printer so I tried manually adding a printer with the printer usb pluged in and printer turned on using the HP Photosmart 7200 Series drivers Vista provides and it seems to be working pretty well.

I went to downloand the application and it brought up 10 different ones for the 7200 series...which one exactly did you use? Help...need my printer asap.

Thanks for the advice. Hope it helps me too...
