HP printer driver not working with 10.8.2

Can anyone give me advice on how to make my all in one laserjet HP printer M2727nf work in 10.8.2. Downloaded new driver software on January 10, since the new OS software update today again the printer is no longer connecting.

I have given up on the scanning function, albeit that it would be nice if it eventually would work again as well.

Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions.


Any devices that previously appeared in your Printer List and Fax List will need to be added again after resetting the printing system.
