According to the Severity: definition [1], I would consider this bug not a grave one, but an important instead, since ATM it seems to affect only printers from the HP LaserJet 10xx series. I would downgrade it in a week if no one complains before. > Printing to my HP LaserJet 1018 used to work, but now it doesn't.

Have you upgraded the foo2zjs package itself in the while? In this case, this could be related to bug #477923 [2], even if the firmware is correctly loaded. > Then, when I try to print anything, foo2zjs and foomatic-rip processes > spawn, but nothing gets printed.

It really important for me > to get printing back. The major problem is that I do not have an HP LaserJet 1018 nor a 1020 one. I bcc:ed some people I know have either such printers or other models affected by bug #477923 [2], just to confirm your problem and maybe get more hint on the causes. FWIW, I am working on a new package version (today's upstream), which will be updated probably tomorrow after I will have tested it. Please confirm that this bug is present with the new version as well. Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca Footnotes: [1] http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#severities [2] http://bugs.debian.org/477923
