Public bug reported:
Been using a HP Deskjet 5440 flawlessly with two different Ubuntu
laptops since Feisty. Under Ibex, it will print one line of random
characters, spit out the page, and attempt to print more of the same on
subsequent pages.
Ibex correctly detects the printer (connected to an AirPort Express) and
offers the correct driver (HP Deskjet 5400 series). Printing a test
page or any document results in the above outcome. Manually configuring
the printer (HP Jet Direct) with the correct URI results in the same
outcome. Attempting to set up the printer directly via USB and printing
a test page results in the same outcome.
Printing a test page from an Ibex live CD results in the same outcome.
However, if I boot from a Hardy live CD, printing a test page results in
the desired outcome.
Hardware:
ThinkPad R61i
PowerBook G4 (Feisty)
Attached is my syslog.
