I have an HP Business Inkjet 1200 that I managed to add using hplip and cups. From the Printing Manager frontend to CUPS I can test it just fine and set it as the default printer.

From OOo, however (on the server or in a ULTSP workstation) it only appears as GENERIC PRINTER. It seems that I can set options in the Printing Manager and then send files to the generic printer, but that is awkward.

Anyone else have this problem? Searching the web I found several references to what appears to be the problem, but I would have thought this would be fixed by now. One recommendation is to disable the OpenOffice-gtk-gnome - something package (ugly workaround).

Any ideas?
