Did you ensure that you installed the Vista drivers which you obtained from
the HP Support site BEFORE connecting the printer to your computer? Did you
follow the instructions EXACTLY as shown in the instructions?

Reboot the system then uninstall anything printer and start over. Also
ensure that all updates are installed. Do NOT use the installation CD
supplied with the printer..
