I then restarted and reinstalled the latest driver from HP which was the 'HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PCL6 (v 5.0)'.

I did not install the hotfix you suggested just because I was not confident to go changing my operating system too much as it is now stable and I am not very good at recovering when things go wrong. My problem also seemed to be a little different to the one described in the hotfix information.

I then decided to go back to basics and uninstalled all the printer drivers according to the instructions provided by Arthur Xie in this same forum. Follow the link below if you wish to view: I then simply plugged in the printer and let Vista find a suitable driver and it then seemed to work.
I probably originally did something wrong when I first went about installing the printer. I hope I didn't waste too much of your time and thank you again for your input. Regards, Kevin Walsh.
