Public bug reported: Binary package hint: hplip
My HP LJ 1018 has worked just fine in previous versions of Ubuntu, but in hardy, it's a complete mess and barely working at all. Starting from a clean slate (with firmware downloaded), I switch the printer on and get the following log messages: Apr 14 12:18:00 quest kernel: [254842.737086] usb 1-8: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 31 Apr 14 12:18:00 quest kernel: [254842.889081] usb 1-8: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Apr 14 12:18:00 quest kernel: [254842.892132] usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 31 if 0 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x03F0 pid 0x4117 Apr 14 12:18:00 quest NetworkManager: <debug> [1208171880.995840] nm_hal_device_added(): New device added (hal udi is '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_3f0_4117_KP0VDES').

This generates the following log messages: Apr 14 12:20:09 quest kernel: [254970.828899] ppdev0: registered pardevice Apr 14 12:20:09 quest kernel: [254970.877792] ppdev0: unregistered pardevice Apr 14 12:20:09 quest kernel: [254971.001225] ppdev0: registered pardevice Apr 14 12:20:09 quest hp: io/hpmud/pp.c 627: unable to read device-id ret=-1 Apr 14 12:20:09 quest kernel: [254971.053160] ppdev0: unregistered pardevice Apr 14 12:20:11 quest kernel: [254973.176825] ppdev0: registered pardevice Apr 14 12:20:11 quest python: io/hpmud/pp.c 627: unable to read device-id ret=-1 Apr 14 12:20:11 quest kernel: [254973.214098] ppdev0: unregistered pardevice Which I assume is related to LPT, so that's fine. The first device in the resulting list is "HP LaserJet 1018 USB KP0VDES HPLIP"; Forward gives me HP; Forward gives me HP LaserJet 1018 Foomatic/foo2zjs and then the printer is set up. I get the following log message (probably irrelevant?): Apr 14 12:21:30 quest cupsd[6104]: *** WARNING *** The program 'cupsd' uses the Apple Bonjour compatibility layer of Avahi.

Those first two lines and the last line look pretty suspicious to me. It's probably worth noting that in previous releases, I never used HPLIP for this printer and it was set up direct to USB. ** Affects: hplip (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: New ** Changed in: hplip (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High -- HP LJ 1018 regression in hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217215 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
