Using Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake)
Installed hplip-1.7.1 using the automated download (hplip-1.7.1.run).
First install attempt failed due to repository problem. I fixed that and
installed again. Got some error messages regarding removal of previous
install but it continued saying the new install should overwrite the
previous one. Everything went well from there until the very end where i
recieved error messages about not being able to open device when running
hp-setup, even though HP-setup ran anyway.
I then tried the manual install. It went well without error until, once
again, running hp-setup.
Here is the end of the terminal log from the manual install (i'm
attaching the terminal log from auto install as an attachment since it
is rather large):

The above are the same errors reported at the end of the auto install as
well.
Finally, aside from printing rather slow it seems to work ok until the
second print job where i got the "chrismas tree" effect.
I found this effect mentioned in the hplip-help list archive with links
on patching hplip-1.7.1 and followed the links to download the patch.
(Oh, i'm using firefox 1.5 if that matters)
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=31571521&forum_id=48102
Then this link: You can get the patch at the following -
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=149981
When clicking the download link it takes me to a page that says my
download should begin shortly but if it doesn't use "This direct link"
http://superb-west.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/hplip/hplip-1.7.1-1.patch
And all that does is take me to a page with what looks like code.
Anyway, here is all i see after clciking the above link:

I read instructions for applying the patch but shouldn't i have a
downloaded file to use??
Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanking you in advance, i am,
Sincerely,
