I did the following:

1. Remove the package hal-cups-utils:

dpkg --purge hal-cups-utils

2. Enable the printer again in http://localhost:631 (it was still disabled from the previous error)

3. Reboot

4. Test again - problem appears to be gone, document printed immediately


Note that this is a freshly installed system with no manual modification of CUPS. The only thing I really did was install the CUPS packages, install the HP packages and run the HP utility to set up my printer in CUPS.

After some weeks of having trouble, I also changed

   ErrorPolicy stop-printer

to

   ErrorPolicy retry-job

in printers.conf, although that didn't actually eliminate the problem.

Given their ubiquity in the market, it would be nice if HP printers worked out of the box with lenny
