What specific printer?
Are you installing the correct driver version for your OSX version? You say you have 10.6.7.
If yo fully update to 10.6.8 drivers may be available from the Mac App Store

Aug 13, 2015 8:06 AM in response to Lisa_Kayeby Linc Davis,Back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/System/Library/Extensions/AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and empty the Trash.
Then download the iTunes installer package. Run it.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Aug 13, 2015 1:21 PM in response to Lisa_Kayeby Lisa_Kaye,Why? Because my husband used my printer and it wouldn't do what he wanted it do to/thought it should do so he started mucking around with it but couldn't remember exactly what he did so I couldn't fix it. Decided to just nuke it and start over.
Printer HP Photosmart 6300
