Comment 4 for bug 1296085

After trying almost everything in earth, I finally try the power-cycled... a little bit different though.
I turned off the printer; wait a few seconds; turned on again. When asked to download the plugin, I decided to not let it (I chose the non-recommended option - I believe it is the last one).

Run hp-setup; choose the usb; voila: the printer shows up. (finally!!!!)

Hope it helps other.
