Bug Description

After performing an upgrade from Feisty Fawn to Gutsy Gibbon this past weekend my smb printing to a Windows 2000 server shared HP Deskjet 710 no longer works. I have deleted and recreated the printer on the Linux box but no luck. If I attempt to print a test page nothing happens - the button remains on "Cancel Tests". If I attempt to print from an application the status for the print job shows "stopped". It appears, from other posts, that this may be a bug but wanted to check to be sure, thanks.
