Why is this HP Photosmart 7525 printer installed as a bootable device in my system BIOS?

[chrisinestes]

This system is built from scratch from all new componants. I've had booting issues from time to time, and noticed that this HP Photosmart 7525 printer is listed as a bootable device in the system's BIOS.

Why the heck would a printer need to be listed as a bootable device?

Thanks,

You should call the system bios people and ask them.

More looking around seems to indicate it's because the printer has a card reader, and a USB port.

I don't know if installing the HP printer driver puts it there, or if the BIOS finds it after the driver is installed., though.

That may be possible. Just ignore it.

Yep... I'll just call it good...
