What about using hp-setup or the cups web-frontend? With the web-frontend I can choose whether to use the hpijs or the hpcups driver and both seem to work. Using hp-setup is fine. Seems that system-config-printer is not hplip-aware. I've configured the printer in hplip and it does appear in system-config-printer. Seems that HP printer must be configured with hplip, not system-config-printer (In reply to comment #2) > Using hp-setup is fine.

Although I did not found out how to choose between the hpcups or hpijs driver when using hp-setup. This works from the cups web-interface though. So this bug should be assigned to the maintainers of system-config-printer i guess. Please try system-config-printer-common 1.2.2 - it now relies on udev, maybe it will solve this issue. Same issue with system-config-printer-common 1.2.2 There are a few new versions out, could you please try 1.2.6 or (soon, bug 354671) 1.2.7 ?! I'd like to... But I don't have HP printer anymore (In reply to comment #7) > I'd like to... But I don't have HP printer anymore > I'm seriously tempted to close this as Resolved Fixed :] Anyway, not much that we can do then, I fear. And I assume your problem is also solved by a new printer.... |
