I'm the technician who was working with SJE to get their macs talking to their new HP800ps from Vectorworks 10.5.1.
We ended up having to upgrade all macs to 10.3.8, and had to use a couple of different HP printer drivers.
There are 4 versions of the HP800ps printer driver available. Two (for OS X 10.2 and OS X 10.3) are on the CD that comes with the printer. The other two (for OS X 10.1/10.2 and for OS X 10.2/10.3) are on the HP website.
The OS X 10.3 driver that came on the HP800ps CD worked with most of the upgraded macs. Two macs were upgraded via the "Archive old system" method, and needed to use the OS X 10.1/10.2 driver from the HP website.
On all computers, using the OS X 10.2/10.3 (latest) driver from the HP website caused Vectorworks 10.5.1 to crash when setting up the print job.
I hope this clarifies things for those users trying to print from Vectorworks 10.5 on Mac OS X to HP Designjet 800ps.
Regards,
David
