Answer:

Do next: go Control Panel / Printers and Faxes.Right click on printer icon,that is not default printer. On drop-down menu uncheck Set as Default Printer.Do it with all icons except HP printer. On HP printer icon set is as default printer.

Try downloading new drivers from this page http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?prodNameId=391159&locale=en_us&taskId=135&prodSeriesId=391152&prodTypeId=18972 it's probably that your printer was made before Vista came out so they are not completely compatible. Also google the error message it gives you in case it's something more specific.
