Hi Kees, Till, Currently HPLIP removes the other local hp queues ,which are not configured by hp-setup, and creates using hp-setup. Sorry for inconvenience caused. We are looking into this issue.
@Kees, For a quick fix, please make following changes. #--> take backup of /usr/share/hplip/config_usb_printer.py $ sudo cp /usr/share/hplip/config_usb_printer.py /usr/share/hplip/config_usb_printer.py_backup #-->replace cups.delPrinter command with pass in config_usb_printer.py $ sed 's/cups.delPrinter.*$/pass/' /usr/share/hplip/config_usb_printer.py > /tmp/config_usb_printer.py $ sudo mv /tmp/config_usb_printer.py /usr/share/hplip/config_usb_printer.py Thanks & Regards, Amarnath ** Changed in: hplip Status: Incomplete => In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to hplip in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1273905 Title: printer name changes when power cycled Status in HP Linux Imaging and Printing: In Progress Status in “hplip” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have an HP LaserJet 1320. It's printer queue name is "LaserJet-1320". Prior to 13.10, things worked fine. Since 13.10, if I reboot the server or power cycle the printer, the printer queue name suddenly changes to "hp_LaserJet_1320" and all the network clients suddenly fail to print to it any more. The printer Device URL is defined using serial number, so it seems like cups (or hplip?) is failing to notice it's the same printer and the same queue: hp:/usb/hp_LaserJet_1320_series?serial=00JCPQ4D12RS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/1273905/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
