Hi Aaron, When I run hp-setup -a a page is printed with one line of text "Unable to open the initial device, quitting."
Using gnome printer manager a right click and properties on the printer is very slow (about 2 minutes) and shows CPU usage at 100%. I have reinstalled cleanly twice. The job is left in the queue with status Stopped The output from hp-setup -a ================================================================ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Desktop/hplip-0.9.11$ sudo hp-setup -a Password: HP Linux Imaging and Printing System (ver. 0.9.11) Printer/Fax Setup Utility ver. 2.0 Copyright (c) 2003-6 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, LP This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
