In the meantime I've found this stress reduction therapy works very well. And ironically, this was one of the first things we were able to print..

Oh and I almost forgot. I had a dream last night that we returned this printer for another one that was the size of a station wagon that we had to keep in the garage. There were gigantic gray cords zig zagging all around the house that we kept tripping over and we had to keep the garage door propped open because the cords were so thick the door wouldn't close. I was a nervous wreck because I was afraid that Chumley would get out and I kept asking Tom if we could PLEASE find something smaller and perhaps keep it in the house. He bellowed something like, "This is the last printer we will ever OWN!!!" and it was in a deep Darth Vader type voice which is so unlike his usual demeanor. I woke up actually appreciating the one we have now! Quite a change from where I was 9 hours before.
I do apologize for my outbursts of anger yesterday. But if you could have witnessed the scene first hand (which lasted from 4:00 til almost midnight!) you would have understood why I was Googling the CEO of Hewlett Packard for a home address so I could send him a horse's head to sleep next to at night. Ok maybe that's a little extreme but I did intend to anonymously mail him tiny piece after tiny piece of what used to be our old printer in hopes that he would attempt to make their printers more MAC compatible. I even drafted a letter which I'm saving (along with pieces of the printer) just in case.

I have a Mac and an HP printer and their relationship hangs in the balance every day. I know how you feel. They don't like "talking" when I try to scan, so I don't. Every time I print I get a little nervous that it won't work. But it usually does. Sometimes in the middle of printing the job just stops. They're both so pissy. So I have to start over again. From the beginning. Not great when you're printing out 5 copies of a 119 page screenplay. But eventually it gets the job done.
OH FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! I've not even attempted to use the SCANNER yet! I probably will never use it. I'm sure glad we spent the extra money to get the all-in-one!!!
