What *I* don't understand is if he even tried his HP printer with the new computer ... or did he ASSume he'd need new "drivers"?

As I stated in the other message, HP Printer Drivers are *not* something which makes OS interface possible; they are rewrites to the printer processor itself.

My friend had to buy a new printer to go with his new
Vista computer. His almost new H/P, perfectly fine printer
was not supported by Vista. No drivers that he could find.

What I don't understand is why he wanted Vista so badly that he would
rather buy a new printer than use an older Windows instead. I presume
that this wasn't the first Windows machine he bought, so he probably
already had something like XP which would have worked with the old
printer.
