I had the same problem since Ubuntu 9.04, but with my Ubuntu 8.10 installation on the notebook it works.
So I compared the two installations and found out, that the rights of /dev/bus/usb... are different. Correct is the owner "lp" and the group "scanner", which I had to create first. With the command ... $ chown lp:scanner /dev/bus/usb/xxx/yyy ... I changed the rights (change xxx and yyy in the command as shown above by John) This can be seen with: $ ls -l /dev/bus/usb/*/* crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 0 2009-08-06 00:03 /dev/bus/usb/001/001 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 2 2009-08-06 00:03 /dev/bus/usb/001/003 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 128 2009-08-06 00:03 /dev/bus/usb/002/001 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 256 2009-08-06 00:03 /dev/bus/usb/003/001 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 257 2009-08-06 00:03 /dev/bus/usb/003/002 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 384 2009-08-06 00:03 /dev/bus/usb/004/001 crw-rw-r-- 1 lp scanner 189, 385 2009-08-05 22:09 /dev/bus/usb/004/002 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 512 2009-08-06 00:03 /dev/bus/usb/005/001 Then the printer works, till the next reboot. To correct also this thing you have to create the file /lib/udev/rules.d/024_hpmud.rules that was included in Ubuntu 8.10 (in /etc/udev/rules.d/024_hpmud.rules) and is not present any more in 9.04.
