Bug Description
I can not get my HP Color Laserjet MFP M476dn printer to work under Linux. It works fine when tested with a box running Windoze 8.1 This happens with a machine running Xubuntu 14.04 and one running Kubuntu 14.04. I bought this printer based on being told by the sales rep telling me that it was Linux compatible.

Also of possible interest, the scanner seems to be working fine with xsane. Fax not hooked up so I don't know if it works or not.
