1809 and HP printer driver incompatible
So, on my new build with 1809 it appears that the printer driver from HP isn't compatible. I have an HP Envy 5640. This thread on their forums is marked solved and closed... although it you read the other posts it clearly isn't solved :blarg: I love when they do that...

Anyway, I don't have a fix for it yet. Looks like I'll be trying to keep at least one PC on 1803 or making a VM perhaps, until HP or MS make a fix. I tried all the recommended solutions I can find, including the ones in the HP thread, no luck.
2019... why are printer drivers still such a bugger??
