Hi John, Thank you for your help.
Below is the hp-check output. I use the printer via an ethernet connection. Also, the output says that I do not have Reportlab - PDF library for Python installed. This is not correct. I do have it installed; output of 'rpm -q python-reportlab' is 'python-reportlab-1.19-5mdv2007.1'. Currently I am using HPLIP 2.7.10. The problem is the same as when I was using 2.7.9. Thanks, David hp-check[7059]: info: : Initializing. Please wait...
