My Laser Jet Pro printed quickly and easily for the first 18 months I had it. Then hp sent some auto-update and it quit printing. SUPPORT had me download the hp Universal Printer. It worked BUT (!) everytime I print -- the driver STOPS to first VERIFY THE PRINTER over the internet (with hp?) This process takes anywhere from 3 to 5 minutes -- then it lets me print. I am a writer. I print a lot of work. And WAITING for Big Brother at hp to "verify" the printer 15 feet away in my closet is maddening.
I have gone into "printer preferences" and selected the lowest level of security but nothing allows me to TURN OFF THE VERIFICATION PROCESS.
Does anyone know how? Please HELP! This is driver is driving me crazy! -- McDoyen
