Don't know if any of this helps, but fwiw...

My 990Cse didn't work with CE until I downloaded and installed the driver from 
HP. CE knew there was a printer there, but didn't know how to talk to it.

Also, hotplug didn't work for me in CE. If I booted with the printer attached, 
I was fine. But if I unplugged and replugged, it wouldn't find the printer 
again (though I discovered some way in MCC to make it connect again; can't 
remember now).

Both the driver and the hotplug problem were fixed when I went to 10.0 
Official. I recommend this.
