Yes, that is the correct mapping (to deskjet 5600). I will get the ppds verified. Thanks Raghu

I had set it Letter when testing. I have found the exact setting causing the problem by some testing. The correct diff follows: --- HP_PSC2175-best.ppd 2007-08-11 09:26:52.000000000 +0800 +++ HP_PSC2175-277.ppd 2007-08-11 09:10:43.000000000 +0800 @@ -100,7 +100,7 @@ *FoomaticRIPOption Model: enum CmdLine A 100 *FoomaticRIPOptionSetting Model=HP-PSC_2175: " -sDeviceManufacturer=&q&& -uot;HEWLETT-PACKARD" -sDeviceModel="deskjet 5550"" +uot;HEWLETT-PACKARD" -sDeviceModel="deskjet 5600"" *End *OpenGroup: General/General Since all the other changes from the driver that worked correctly seemed trivial, i.e. paper sizes, etc., and since this one looked most promising to test, I just changed the 5600 to the 5550, and the cups test page printed out correctly as well as the document form I first noticed the problem with. So, the fix, at least for my PSC 2175, is the above diff > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Joe > Morris (NTM) > Sent: Thursday, August 09, 2007 5:09 AM > To: hplip-help@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [Hplip-help] Printer driver problem > > I am presently running hplip 2.7.7 on openSUSE 10.2 with an PSC 2175, > which works quite well.
