Re: hplip and Fedora Core 5

I power-cycled the printer, unplugged the USB cable, restarted hplip and cups,
and plugged the cable back in.

When I went back into the CUPS web interface, I saw that the printer was listed
about four times on the initial page under "new printers found".

I installed it as Device URI: usb://HP/color%20LaserJet%202550%20series

This prints just fine but the hp-* tools don't recognize it, of course.

The other lists that specify the hp: CUPS backend (those that actually use
hplip) still won't print.  I can, however, run hp-toolbox and view all of the
statistics and whatnot for the printer if this printer-that-won't-print is set
up under CUPS.

So it appears that I can access all of the functions of this printer by having
it listed twice.  Once as a usb: device to actually print with, and once as a
hp: device to view status and clean it and so on.  This isn't the greatest
solution, though.
