Bug Description
OS: Kubuntu 13.10
HPLIP: 3.13.11
Printer: HP OfficeJet 6500A Plus
When I load photo paper and leave the paper type at "Automatic" or set it to "Photo"; the printer reports a "Wrong type of paper" error and printing fails (it does no tell me what type it think it has or what value got sent).
If I look in the printer's log, all I see is:
=======
| ID | Event | Description |

If I set the paper type to "Plain" (which *is* the wrong type of paper), printing works.
Printing from Windows works as expected, so it's not the printer or the paper causing the problem.

Just found bug #508152 (don't know why it didn't come up in my searches before logging this one).
I think this is a duplicate.
