Public bug reported:
Printing from most applications (evince, LibreOffice, gedit, etc)
results in blurry printouts. Only printing pdf from Adobe Acrobat
readers has good results. The problem can be found on the drivers (ppd)
included in Ubuntu 13.04 (and previous) because:
- Installing the upstream hplip version 3.13.15 (latest on the time of
writing), fixes the problem. (Although an upstream installation does not result
in a working printer configuration, just adding a printer from the default
ubuntu wizzard and selecting a ppd supplied by hplip 3.13.5 results in fine
print-outs.)
- When just using the hplip version supplied by Ubuntu 13.04 (3.13.1) and
instead of using the correct driver, choosing "HP Color LaserJet CP1510 Series
Postscript", result in a correctly working printer. This is the easiest
work-around.
