[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 740763, member: 56231"] In addition to using Spotlight, try Finder > Cmd-F. I've found that it does a more thorough job than Spotlight in finding hidden files. For example, with Cmd-F, type .plist in the search field. You'll be presented with all the preference files, and you can search for any that have HP. A search of my Mac HD > Library > Receipts shows HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers.pkg even though I've never used a HP device, so the receipt must natively be part of the OS. [/QUOTE]
