I've changed the status back to incomplete because I still hope to move this forward. I'm unable to borrow the printer before January.

Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: HP Deskjet D1660 moves the paper and the head exactly as if it's printing correctly, but there's no ink on the paper. However it does work as expected on Windows, so the hardware is ok. Reproduced on 12.04, 14.04, Linux Mint 17 (which is based on 14.04) and even Debian 7.5. I hope to borrow the printer from the owner to capture logs etc and investigate in more detail. It's strange that I can find no other reports of such behaviour with the D1660, though there are other reports of it not working at all and subsequent success. But bug #521429 describes an identical problem with the HP F370 printer.
