Are you using a newer mother board? Some old clone mother
boards had
non-standard or buggy USB hardware. These boards may work with
Windows,
but not with Linux. Check the web for known issues.
Instead of using the built-in USB hardware on the mother
board, try
installing a USB PCI card. The USB card may work better with
Linux.
What mother board(s) are you using? We use brand name PCs for
testing,
but maybe somebody on the list can make a recommendation.

Printing always did (and still does) work with
pretty

combination of Ubuntu/HPLIP I've tried.
Scanning has only ever worked on one Ubuntu Dapper
install with HPLIP
0.9.7 , but although I've tried to reproduce
this setup
on the very
same machine it doesn't any longer. :-/
I don't think there's a USB hub kicking around
here
anywhere, but for
what they cost I can buy one if you think it
would help.
What's the
thinking here - could this problem be related
to the use
of USB 2.0
ports on the motherboard?
Thanks
Will
It's been a while, but I never did get this solved.
I've today
reproduced identical behaviour on a new machine with different
spec
motherboard, this time running a fresh install of Ubuntu 7.04
(feisty).
If the problem is that both these motherboards have
poor 1284.4
support, will using a suitable USB hub circumvent the problem,
or is the
only solution to use a different motherboard?
Assuming a hub could work, please could you let me
know what
type I should obtain, ie. USB 1.0, 1.1 or 2.0, anything
specific I need
to look for on the packaging in terms of supported features?
The motherboard is an Elitegroup GeForce6100SM-M.
I've now tried attaching the device via an Adaptec AUA-2000LP
PCI-to-USB controller, with no change in behaviour whatsoever.
Any ideas?
I would really appreciate any suggestions, this seems to be a bit of a
dead end at present.

I have a PSC 2110 and had problems with scanning.
I installed HPLIP 2.7.7-23.1 and HPLIP-HPIJS 2.7.7-23.1 (SUSE had a rpm
for that) and problem was solved
