It worked in Dapper Flight 6 (see previous message), but fails again in Dapper Beta. This is what I did in Dapper Beta: 0. Hit New Printer. 1. Select Network Printer, type HP JetDirect. 2. URI: 192.168.1.63 (Port: 9100) 3. Manufacturer: HP Model: DeskJet 5850 Recommended driver: hpijs (from HPLIP) 4. When hitting Apply button, nothing happens. 5. When trying to repeat the installation by hitting New Printer, the window freezes with a message: "...application quit suddenly...".
Again, the very same procedure was successful in Flight 6... -- gnome-cups-manager does not accept HPLIP printer setup https://launchpad.net/bugs/27239 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
