Hi! Funny thing, I had the same problem with a free printer I acquired with the purchase of an HP notebook. A Lexmark X2580. A voice called to me from the printer and it said it's not connecting, but made one print. That printer seemed to grab my machine almost demonically. I talked to Lexmark and they said to download some software. Something was funny with that download because the machine couldn't seem to find it. Several hours later, after disconnecting the printer, it found it. Matter of fact the notebook made a special effort to notify me. The printers just been sitting here because I wanted to buy an HP printer.
