Here the solution for this error t.Hope it will be usefull for you.Bye

To resolve the issue, follow the steps below.

1. Right-click on My Computer, and select Properties.
2. Click on the Advanced tab.
3. Under Performance, click Settings.
4. Click the Data Execution Prevention tab.
5. Select the Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select: option.
6. Click Add....
7. Browse to C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\3\hpzeng07.exe and click Open.
8. Click Apply.
9. Click OK, and OK again.

In a nutshell, it appears that the driver for this printer doesn't get on with Windows' Data Execution Prevention. Adding it to the ignore list makes it work.
