I can confirm the bug. I spent hours this afternoon trying to configure a HP LaserJet 1300 (connected to the local parallel port) in Dapper. Things I did include:
1. Trying the hpijs 0.9.7 driver and the recommended postscript driver. 2. Adding and configuring using the "Printing" Administration tool and the cups web administration interface <http://localhost:631>. Finally, I googled out this post <http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185911>. The workaround described in comment #5 (selecting "Use another printer by specifiying port" and choosing "Parallel Port #1" from the drop down list) works for me. -- hp laserjet 1100 fails to print https://launchpad.net/bugs/52277 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
