HP Printer not working properly after last -current
My HP F2050 its not working right after upgrading to the last batch updates in current. I'm running x86_64 multilib current alienbob KDE 4.8.4
The printer is detected and configured in cups.
But hp admin isn't showing in my tray any more. When running hp-toolbox in console get this:
Code:
~$ hp-toolbox
HP Linux Imaging and Printing System (ver. 3.12.6)
HP Device Manager ver. 15.0

warning: Qt/PyQt 4 initialization failed.
error: hp-toolbox requires GUI support. Exiting.
until yesterday, before the update, worked just fine
Finally upgraded to latest changes and get back the printer manager.
But same problem, prints only half test page and ask for another page to print the second half of the test page.
With a text document it jumps to center page and print only half. Checked the config, page size, orientation and its all good.
