The Snow Leopard upgrade went without a hitch on my imac. I just found out a day or so again when I went to print an article from the internet that the printer didn't respond. It kept giving me an error message that the printer wasn't responding. I am using a HP deskjet F2120. After doing some more digging I was told there was no driver for this particular printer. Last night I downloaded what is supposed to be new drivers from HP and it lists the 2120 printer scanner. I am getting ready to hook the printer back up and see if it works but digging around behind the computer desk through the cables is no fun chore so I thought I would ask first to see if anyone else has had this problem and have tried the new drivers. Please let me know it will save a ton of work if I know before I start the big dig.

Apple menu->System Preferences-->Print and Fax. Right-click (control-click) on the printer in the list and select 'Reset printing system...'. Then try to re-add the printer.
