Windows Forum / Windows Vista / Hardware / May 2008HP1012 and Access XP
Due to eight year old PC blown fan and burn mother board. I was FORCED to move to Vista. After multiple Blue Screen and other hassle, I finally got Office XP to install on my Dell 360 desktop. Office seems to work except for the known screw over by M$ about passwords to Outlook and printer problems with Access. Access seems to work ok. However I sometimes can't print or use print preview. I say sometimes because depending of which Print or Preview Icon you use ie ON TOP or DROP DOWN MENU, It may or may not work Most it doesn't work. However if I use the HP Photosmart 7350 using a HP 5550 driver as default printer. Everything works fine. So I am assuming like scores of other folks, I got issues with HP1012 and Vista. Any suggestion?

That driver is included with Vista, but you have to select the driver manually. It should end up on Port DOT4_001, but it might be slightly different on you computer. Google "HP Laserjet 1012" and "Vista" if you have a problem. And PS, don't buy another HP product. The only hardware company that is worse when it comes to providing provides updated drivers is Creative. HP used Vista as an excuse to abandon a lot of its older printers and scanners. > Due to eight year old PC blown fan and burn mother board. I was FORCED > to move to Vista.
