Apple HP Printer Driver 2.2 (Mac OS X)

Fear the 'update'..  

I always fear the HP Printer Driver updates. I've got a Color LaserJet 3600 which was touted as 'Mac Compatible' and yet isn't fully. The driver on my Leopard system works sometimes. It will print fine, and then stop working and then work again and then disappear and need to be reinstalled and then maybe work for a while before it screws up yet again. I have a scanjet 4670 scanner that doesn't work with Leopard either. Damn nice scanner and yet because HP won''t either release a Leopard driver or release the driver code so someone can do a driver, I can't use it. And dammit, there are only HP scanners locally for purchase. How much longer will they work with Leopard? Will they stop working with the next version (10.6)? Will they stop working with the next point upgrade of Leopard? I have no faith in HP products, and I sell them! Heck, the scanjet 4670 won't work with Vista either! These damn bastard companies that push product by denying drivers sure do blow... Someone should sue them to free the driver code... I fear the updates. I fear HP drivers on the PC too. What happened to HP? [alert admin]
