The problem is the following: HPLIP's "hp" CUPS backend reports: D [17/Oct/2017:06:44:33 +0100] [Job 1691] prnt/backend/hp.c 616: ERROR: 1009 media-empty-error; will retry in 30 seconds...
This means one of the following: - Your printer is out of paper - Your printer has a hardware problem - The "hp" CUPS backend has a bug I have the same printer and it works for me with HPLIP, and assuming you are not reporting a bug with your printer being out of paper it is most probably some hardware problem. I will move the bug to HPLIP as it is definitely not a problem of CUPS, cups-filters, or Ghostscript. You can do another test to get at least the printing part of your printer to work. Follow the instructions for setting up driverless printing with your printer on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZestyZapus/ReleaseNotes#Driverless_Printing Does this work for you? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1723593 Title: HP2540 Printer installs Ok but does not print To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hplip/+bug/1723593/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
