Please help me. I have a new iMac but an old HP OfficeJet G85 printer/scanner. I can scan with it using VueScan, but I can't print to it. I've tried the Generic PCL Laser Printer Driver and the computer connects and recognizes the printer but the Print Queue says "waiting for printer to become available" and the printer is saying "Power Save On." I've turned it on and off several times.
