Default printer problems hp4160


I have been have problems with my prints spooling. Some times it prints
fine and other times i have to restart the computer and then it prints.
When I restart the spooler it does not and i have to delete the printer
and reinstall in order to get it to work but it is only temporary. I
find my self reinstalling my printer 3-4 times a day. Any help would be
great.

Sounds like corrupted drivers to me. When you uninstalled, did you follow
the correct instructions:

If you omitted Step 4, all you did was reinstall the old corrupted drivers.

(yes, I know it says XP at the top, it's exactly the same method for Vista)
