Hi,

I have an HP C4795 All-in-One Printer/Scanner/Copier.  I had the thing
working, with the exception that the scanner would only work with xsane
when logged in as root.

I haven't used the printer in a few days and have updated my system and
the kernel since I last used it.  Now, I can't get the darn thing to
work.  I can set up the printer used the CUPS web interface.  I can send
jobs to the printer and they will appear in the queue, but they just
hang and won't print.

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.  Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

This may not help but I noticed something weird like this a while back. The only way I could fix it was to delete the printer and add it back again. Mine is a HP as well so this may be worth trying at least. Also note, you should use the HP tool to add this printer. I think it is hp-setup.

On the scanner, it sounds like you need to be added to a group to access the scanner as a user. Look in /etc/group and see if you something scanner related.

Hope that helps if no one else has a better idea.
