You should try downloading the drivers from HP's website, as they will be newer than the ones on your disk. Also make sure you delete all of your TEMP files. An HP tech told me once TEMP files can cause problems with Laserjet printers. Just go to Accessories, system tools and disk clean-up. Delete all Unneccessary files. Hope this Helps!
