Disable HP Disconnected Message for laptop
I have a laptop that's periodically connected to a local printer / fax / scanner HP 6300 All-In-One Series. When it's disconnected (I'm away from the office) a message pops up stating that the local printer / fax / scanner is disconnected. Is there a way to disable this message?

Unfortunately, it didn't work.
"Show informational notifications for local printers." was already unchecked. I unchecked the two other check boxes recommended in your posting, and the "Disconnect" message still reapperred on reboot.
