This is using Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS (Precise Pangolin); newer versions of Ubuntu seem to have the same problem. It can print through CUPS but not through HPLIP and hence crashes during a print job.

It prints about half the page and then has an error and stops printing altogther leaving the page in a half-inky mess. The printer works perfectly on Windows XP etc. I ran hp-check and was unable to get this device detected properly by HPLIP after a considerable amount of trying; the device is plugged in via a USB-to-Parellel port: Bus 004 Device 002: ID 067b:2305 Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2305 Parallel Port Useful config files attached. HP-Check Notes: dbus and libusb are installed but not detected. I also added my username to the lp and lpadmin group, which appears perfeclty in users & groups but keeps throwing an error on lp group for me regardless. I read here: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/62523/how-to- install-a-printer-that-is-connected-via-an-usb-to-parallel-port- adapter -- that it may be possible to do some hardcoding to make it work, but it didn't look like the correct way of doing it. So I am hoping someone will be able to properly debug this issue.
