    I just switched to a mac-mini set up my 930c as the default printer.When I print the paper goes to the catridge as normal but then it stops and does not print,after about a minute the paper is ejected, I downloaded the newext driver and software for HP the same thing happens..Even the sofware for choosing a printer will not open,it just minimizes when I click on it. Any help would be apreciated.

    well i have good news and bad news what are you trying to print if it is a picture you are totally out of luck

    here is why

    mac os x has a built in driver for all hp printers but the driver only prints text not pictures so you need to purchase a new printer im sad to say

    ok there is a univerisal driver in your system preferrences then you need to select printers and look for the hp driver text only or the text only univiersal driver

    when I go to the printer setup utility under printers everything is grey.and it tells me that no driver is installed for the 930c.I cannot find where to install the driver,I cannot find printer drivers anywhere in the system preffs.

    then most likely the printer is not compatible with the mac on which you are trying to install it on and your back to having to purchase a new printer

    I am saying that I cannot find any printer drivers not just for the 930c.

    Go to Applications/Utilities/Printer Setup Utility. Click on your printer (deskjet 930) so the buttons become available. Click on "Delete" to delete your printer. Click on "Add" and in the new window select your printer. Once you do so in the box "Print using" it should automatically say "HP Inkjet 3.3". Click on Add at the bottom of the window.

    If when you add the new printer it does not automatically select HP Inkjet 3.3 you will need to reinstall the driver.
