I have a Photosmart 2610 All-in-One. Some months ago,
I was able to successfully use it as a USB printer
with Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy). Sometimes. Sometimes I could
print fine, and sometimes trying to print caused the
printer to stall indefinitely and Ghostscript to take
up nearly 100% of one of my processors until I killed
it. During this time, I could always print test pages
at will; only trying to print from an application
(OpenOffice, Evince, the GIMP, etc.) caused these
problems.
At some point, though, I stopped being able to print
at all. Not even test pages work now. Any kind of
print job, as soon as I submit it, is immediately
stopped. Upgrading from Ubuntu 6.10 to 7.04 (Feisty)
didn't change anything. With the Printing control
panel GNOME provides, I tried removing the printer and
re-adding it to see if that helped anything. But I
couldn't add it again, because my system seemed no
longer able to detect the printer over the USB
connection. I was able to add the printer again using
hp-toolbox, which recognized the printer without a
problem. But, I still have that
instantaneous–print-job–stopping problem.
(All this time, I might add, scanning via XSane has
worked without a hitch.)
Any ideas? hp-check isn't on my computer for some
reason, but here's what seems like a pertinent slice
of the CUPS error log, if it's of any use to you.
Sorry that it's so big.
