HP 4280 "Out of Memory"

I replaced a working fine Lexmark X1150 print, scan, copy (broken paper
tray) with a new HP 4280 print, scan, copy, and all I get trying to print
from MS Works 4.0 using Windows XP is an "Out of Memory" message. I have 640
meg, and system information shows 422 meg available. Installation went
perfect. It WILL print OK from Quicken 7.1.

I called HP support. A recording says they no longer support the HP 4280,
which is 6 days old. Microsoft has no plans to update their printer driver -
tough luck, new printer owner. HP on line automated service suggests I try
installing an "alternate" driver, one for their Deskjet 550 C. I'm reluctant
to try this.

Wouldn't it be nice if Corporate America was interested in their product
working and customers being happy instead of making "liar loans" to people
who can't afford them? The big shots make 20 million/year by ripping off
those who can least afford it. It's called "free markets" - free to get rich
on the backs of the poor.

On another BB location this same problem was reported by someone else. No
solution has been provided there.
