The log seems to be ok. hp1000fw detects the printer and upload the firmware (by the way, when the firmware is uploaded, do you see both lights of the printer blinking? they should do it) Please let me think about it...
the only time the lights blink on the printer is when I unplug it and then plug it back in. the printer doesn't do anything when I give the command to upload the firmware either manually, or when I boot the system.
I've been using this command to upload the firmware to the printer. I got it from the site you sent the links for.
cat /etc/printer/sihp1000.img > /dev/usb/lp0
What??? You do *not* need to type "cat /etc/printer/sihp1000.img > /dev/usb/lp0"!!!!!
This command is executed from hp1000fw!!!
Maybe it is your problem's reason! If you upload the firmware twice, the printer will act as /dev/null.
If you are using hp1000fw, you only need to plug the printer, wait for the firmware upload and print.
Try it: Unplug your printer. Wait 3-4 seconds. Then plug in again. Do *not* run any aditional command to upload the firmware. The firmware will be uploaded automatically by hotplug/hp1000fw.
I hope this will help you.
Best regards,
well...following your instructions does get it to run, but all it's doing now is bailing paper. nothing is printed on the paper.
