Thanks a lot for the help. I've got this file in my xp windows system and I've got also a hp scanner, so that's clear. I have to say that the translation into Spanish is just amazing and funny. To start with it translates HP(Hewlett-Packard)by CABALLO DE FUERZA so horsepower.

Hey Pilar!
Thanks for the feedback, I'm sure it'll come in use to someone else at somepoint. As you can probably guess, I don't speak any Spanish but it's the best I can do for now - I have quiet a few Spanish coming to the site looking for information on this extension.
Thanks again :)

Is there any way to open this file? I received an attachment in this format from clients and need the information that they are trying to send.

I have a Powerbook G4 and have just installed Leopard. Now, my HP Officejet J5780 won't print and scan. Every time I try to scan, it can't find the dpe. Help?
