Hp Print driver

[Richard Kreiss]

Installing a universal Print drive which supports PCL5  for a different HP Laser printer worked.  

My client and now print out his contracts to the Laser Printer.  I may have to look for a UPD for his inkjet printer if he wants reports sent to that printer.

Thanks to Bob Rasmussen for suggesting installing a different UPD that supported PCL5 for a different HP LASER Printer.  That worked.
