If you have ever had a computer problem and googled it, you’ll know that the advice you find will be mixed.

When I couldn’t get my hp photosmart 3750 printer working with my mac I tried several zany ideas.

1. Download a driver from some no name site.
2. Instead of downloading the drivers for the 3750, download the driver for the D7300.
3. Make the mac sleep and, just as the screen starts to go dark, hit the space bar to wake it up.

Guess which one worked.
