I have HP 6310 all in one printer (it's about 1 1/2 yrs old). Just bought new
computer that has VISTA. Printing works great from everything except
Publisher, which is what I use mostly as I print alot with graphics and
specialized fonts. When sending a print from Publisher I get this message...

Publisher cannot print this publication. To print composite CMYK or
separations, you must use a printer driver that is set to output PostScript
language level 2 or later.
If there is no PostScript Language Level option available, the printer
driver supports only PostScript level 1. If this is the case, contact the
manufacturer of your PostScript printer or imagesetter to find out if it
supports at least PostScript level 2. If your print output device does
support PostScript level 2, obtain the updated PostScript driver from the
manufacturer.

There is no PostScript option in my Advanced settings. This worked fine
before with the exact same print job, the only thing different is Vista. I
have downloaded the latest drivers from HP, and that didn't fix the problem.

Any ideas??
 
This is an application issue. I'd say the HP printer is not the default.
