I am using GNOME and Beryl,... and to configure the printer i use localhost:631 ... i will remove and reestablish the printer...

Working?
 

Let me know if you get it working. found 3 similar threads.

Hmmm.... heres whats up since the re add of the printer this time i added it using CUPS+Gutenprint v5.0.0.99.1 and the HPLIP option in the dropdown list.... so? sorry, to take so long, but thanks.... now what should i do? this is what i get when i try to print now.....

unplug and replug printer
 

have you tried unplugging and re-plugging in the printer to reset the usplp. would uninstall the driver unplug, replug the printer, re-setup the printer.

Update:
Ok, my current configuration is
this is after turning the printer off for a while, and plugging it back in, and setting it up,... when i print, it processes, goes through, everything, but nothing prints...?
P.S. the security settings are back to ubuntu default...


The other day, the printer wasnt working in windows, so I need to double check that... sorry for the break, i'll post after i check if the printer is working in my windows partition.

Ok, so it is not working in Windows anymore either, even after removing and re adding the printer.... I never had problems witht he printer when i used it with the printer parrallel port, but since I use USB ive had problems,... though it has worked for the past 4 months... so I'm not sure whats wrong... this post may have been useless, but i'm thinking of testing the printer with someones laptop to see if it works there... what do you think?
-by the way, USB is now in use because I got a new computer with no Parallel port)

I tested the printer with a laptop, that had both usb and parallel, neither seemed to work, (windows laptop), though i never restarted or modified the settings the computer had, since it had apparently been plugged in to the printer b4... how can i do further diagnosis on this printer?

Could try on a computer with parallel port
 

Try it on a computer with a parallel port and see if it works. (use a different cable), remove and re-insert the printer cartridges, might want to dust them off a bit. This should tell you whether it is a cable or printer problem.

Ok, will do sorry, for the delayed response, but i have no report for now. Thanks...
