installed correct print driver HP-6P to (port) LPT1. Test print goes to spooler and icon shows up as pending print job---but does not connect to printer. Ran MS-printer trouble shooter--and no issues detected.

If you're desperate, you could try what I did with a Ricoh printer that wouldn't detect in Windows. I plugged the printer into a different USB port and used the Add Printer wizard to install the same drivers a second time, resulting in two instances of the same driver. The second one worked, the first one didn't. Dunno why.
