Now to the problems with the driver installation:
When I tried to continue on with the printer wizard at Uberstudent>Applications>System>Hardware>Printers>Add>Network Printer>
HP Officejet Pro 8610 by clicking "Forward", this resulted in a failed attempt to install gutenprint. It hangs and crashes the entire computer, eventually.
