from another line in the log. 

Note that I never owned any other printer than the HP 1200 (at work a 1300).

I never had this problem with the  lp0 connection. Only with the USB connection.

Trouble is I have 3 machines (hp 1200 or 1300) - work/home/my parents  
3 are now with usb connections. I only have
one parallel connector for home, to revert to.
i have the same failing driver in each place. Cups stops printing 
every few days and I have to
reinstall the driver whenever I want to print. It is annoying to my dad who 
cannot
print when I am not there...

Bad news.
