Apple Software Update with HP drivers

Question

Anyone get the new "Apple" HP drivers in Apple software update over the weekend? My HP C7180 (or 7100 series as it reads) did not show up in the list of printers in the setup utility until this update. Strange update too! As indicated my iMac turned itself off after the update and then did a fresh restart.
Still can't figure out how to fax from a software application, but I can now print fine wirelessly.
HP users try a software update, NOT HP, just Apple software update and see if this helps you.

Hi John,
Pre Leopard I was able to fax from an application wirelessly (same as print) to my 7100 series Photosmart. I was able choose PhotoSmart C7100 series print (9152F) to print or C7100 series 192.x.x.x Fax to fax anything from any application. The fax driver was not completely compatible with 10.4.10 as alot of the items in the print/fax dialogue were there but not visible... looked as if it were corrupted, but it worked after you added fax recipients. I like this feature as this printer has no document feeder for faxes, so they have to be sent a page at a time which is a pain.
I still have a PhotoSmart C7100 Fax.app somewhere on my computer, but can't get it to show up in the setup utility fax/print when I try to add a printer. I've held off calling HP support as I doubt they would have a solution yet if ever. Grateful if you have any thoughts.
Thanks,
Carter
Just opened up Print and Fax on my MacBook 10.4.10 and the options are for "printing/faxing/sharing" These are not available in Leopard. Under options in Leopard, it's just "general/driver/supply levels"
