HP Deskjet 1516 Job enters spool but disappears instantly without printing on XP

Hi,

I installed HP Deskjet 1516 driver from the internet on a XP SP3 box and all went well, except that when I try to print I can see the job is sent to the spooler, but it disappears from the queue without printing.
I formatted the computer and it worked for a few weeks, but now the problem is back.

Is there a way to find older drivers?

Thank you so much.
I had looked over google to solve this problem but did not run into the solution you found regarding using the HP Deskjet 460 driver.
The link you sent did not work though, because my OS is not 64bit.
I managed to find the regular 32bit driver for the HP Deskjet 460 from the HP support site, and just updated the driver like you mentioned.

Here is the link to the driver that worked
