HP OJ4680 Problem Event Name APPCRASH -after Vista- Win 7 upgrade

Question

Upgraded a Toshiba Satellite U400 to Winows 7 32-bit from Vista. Connected to my HP Officejet J4680 to print some documents and printer has troubleshooting flag. Windows was unsuccessful at searching for a driver so  I downloaded full software and driver to address this. I get a Runtime error window for Microsoft visual basic C++ "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way. PLease contact the application's support team for more information" and the following problem signature:

Answer 1

The only solved thread on this I could find on this error is here.
From what I read, the steps are very lengthy, but they do work.
Most important thing to do before you continue, is to follow the steps to back up all your files before proceeding.  That being said however, as you need to urgently print a boarding pass, I would suggest borrowing another computer, or printing them out at an airport kiosk if available. The troubleshooting provided in the link above looks like it's a few hours worth of steps.
