I was trying to setup the HP officejet J4580 on my debian laptop, lenny
5.0.3 (2.6.26).
Although the driver was installed and the printer was detected without
problem, it does not print any pages. When I print the page, it tells me
the job has been submitted to the printer, and after a short while, it
returns that the job has been completed, while the printer remains
silent without printing anything.
I used different ways to install drivers:
1. downloaded hplip all-in-one tar ball from HP's website
2. install hplip from debian's repository
3. install hpoj, xsane from debian's repository replacing hplip
Maybe the HP hplip went in /usr/local and remnants are conflicting
with the Debian packages?
All the above three ways can get the drivers loaded correctly, and the
printer is probed automatically. But the printer does not respond to any
command. (BTW: The printer works well on WindowsXP)
Can any one share experience about this?
/var/log/cups has two files that might be useful: access_log and
error_log.
Also, /var/log/syslog and /var/log/messages.
