Thanks John and Carolyn, Repairing permissions had no affect. I'm not sure where this item came from; I gather others do not have HP Trap monitor placed in their library/startup items folder? If so, perhaps the installation of my HP all in one driver was the culpret, and I can just delete it and reinstall the driver if doing so adversely affects printing?
Best regards.
