I am used to installing printers with little difficulty using</p> <pre><code>http://localhost:631 </code></pre> <p>(This is the CUPS web interface).</p> <p>When I plugged this printer in it was detected (checked dmesg and /var/log/syslog) and CUPS could see it as well. However, when I printed a test page, the job appeared, but never printed. I suspected bad hardware, but installed printer on a Windows system and (sigh) it worked just fine once I downloaded the driver from HP web-site. Where did I go wrong?</p>pcardoutMon, 10 May 2010 03:05:57 -0400http://linuxexchange.org/questions/422/how-do-i-install-the-hp-laserjet-p1005-under-debian-lennyhpliplaserjetp1005p1005laserjetfoomatic-ripfail
