Thanks for this. I am also responding because you wondered if anyone was finding their way to this post. My problem is actually that Mac OS X 10.5.8 won’t recognize my hp officejet scanner and am uuninstalling and reinstalling the HP software (which isn’t working) and can’t get through the Setup Assistant. This solved the problem.

Thank you! This was so very helpful. I was so annoyed by it that I was about to uninstall the whole thing.

Thanks for the tip. This had been bugging me for a while and I finally got round to sorting it today. Your tip worked fine and no more HP Assistant.

many thanks

Thanks for that tip. I really got tired of seeing that HP Assistant. I’d only looked in the usual places for that startup file and didn’t find it. You saved me doing a Finder search on all HP crap. Funny thing. I’m sure I installed it correctly with the necessary settings, so why the heck would it keep asking to set up my 2600 all the time. I had installed the on my MacBook Pro and rarely print from it. Anyway, you helped get rid of it and that’s that. Thanks, again.
