In your original message you say PM prints fine to your epson printer but
not to your HP. However everything else seems to print fine to both printers.

This seems a little odd to me, but I'm curious about a couple of things.
I'm assuming if you can print from PM to the Epson, you can also print to
a PDF Preview document? try it and see (choose to print, then click the
"preview" or "save to pdf" button at the bottom of the print dialog...
maybe try both.)

If this fails, then there is something wrong in Postscript rendering to
the print device. It MIGHT be PM's fault, but I've never had such a
problem myself. If it succeeds, it COULD still be postscript rendering:
It COULD be in the HP driver or just PM's reaction with the HP driver.

Another test would be to switch your HP's driver to the Generic
Postscript driver and see if PM prints fine to it. If it does, then it's
definitely how PM is playing with HP. Whether that is a PM or HP support
issue, I don't know, though.

The upshot of these tests is you'll narrow the trouble a bit more,
hopefully, so we can pinpoint if there is programming issues or maybe a
reinstall of printer drivers or a new driver or trashing prefs or
anything might help.
