** Summary changed: - Margins cut on HP LaserJet printers (1018, 1020, 4000 etc) + HP 1018 LaserJet printer not printing
** Description changed: Binary package hint: hplip The problem description is here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hplip/+question/68339 It is not just a problem, it is a bug, IMHO :) It happens too, with a custom foo2zjs build on Kubuntu 9.04 final. Very annoying. --- Citing the question: All my steps: 1) I've just installed fresh Ubuntu 9.04 Release Candidate 2) I pluged and turned my HP LaserJet 1018 printer 3) Ubuntu found it and opened setup window for "plugin download". Everything was successful. 4) I tried to print test page, but it was just "Job completed" without printing anything. 5) I fount, that I need to install hplip-gui, but noting changed. 6) I tried to change driver (Menu: System->Administration->Printing->HP_LaserJet_1018->"Make and model"->Change), but also nothing new. 7) I installed new printer by runing hp-setup (I name it HP_LaserJet_1018_2) 8) printing works, but: when I try to print (with "HP_LaserJet_1018") this: http://originalus.lt/tmp/hplip/HP_LaserJet_1018.odt result looks like this: http://originalus.lt/tmp/hplip/HP_LaserJet_1018.png when I try to print (with "HP_LaserJet_1018_2"): http://originalus.lt/tmp/hplip/HP_LaserJet_1018_2.odt result looks a bit different: http://originalus.lt/tmp/hplip/HP_LaserJet_1018_2.png "hp-check -t" result I put here: http://originalus.lt/tmp/hplip/hp-check_-t_result Some time before, when I used Ubuntu 8.04 and same printer was installed by running hplip-2.8.12.run (or maybe older - I'm not sure now), everything worked fine. And I don't know now, what to do... Thanks in advance.
