Title: HP Photosmart 1315 printing only monochrome after 11.04 upgrade Status in HP Linux Imaging and Printing: New Status in “hplip” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: My photosmart 1315 started printing in monochrome after upgrading to 11.04. The colors are translated to proper greyscale so something is happening before the printer driver. I installed hplip-3.12.4 which had no effect. HPLIP did not install properly. In poking around, I used system->admin->printing to call up the admin page on the printer. I selected "change printer make and model" and found on the second wizard screen under "change driver" that the installer had selected the old driver instead of 3.12.4. This even though I selected the option to de-install the old driver during the installation and verified same in Package Manager. This got the printer printing again but it is still printing in monochrome. The test pages generated in both CUPS admin page and the HPLIP pages print in monochrome with proper grayscale conversion. My other printer, a Brother HL5250DN monochrome laser printer continues to work properly.

Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling the HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the proper dependencies are installed to successfully compile HPLIP. 2. Run-time check mode (-r or --run): Use this mode to determine if a distro supplied package (.deb, .rpm, etc) or an already built HPLIP supplied tarball has the proper dependencies installed to successfully run. 3. Both compile- and run-time check mode (-b or --both) (Default): This mode will check both of the above cases (both compile- and run-time dependencies).
