Thanks, but this didn't work. I have an old printer, a Deskjet F300 All in One. I don't think it works with Easy Start. Do I  need to get a new printer?

I have a newer printer and it still doesn't work.  I barely got my printer out of an install loop.  I contacted Apple and they say it is YOUR certificate that is out of date.

I cannot personally help further with this.

Can you leave your comment at the TKB article?
