Sometimes DMA doesn't work well (i.e. avoid the ECP+DMA mode), see
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=116655

Try the EPP mode without DMA (i.e. set this mode in your BIOS
and make sure that there is no DMA switched on in your BIOS).

This is o.k. provided you have IO 378 and IRQ 7 set in your BIOS.

Perhaps the HPLIP authors may know more about possible reasons
for such error messages.


Perhpas it is your parallel port cable?
I got user information about crappy parallel port cables where some
status wires seem to be missing (a great idea to make it cheapest)
which are not crucial for unidirectional data transfer to a printer.
Unfortunately we don't have such cables to reproduce it ;-)
