Bug Description
/var/log/syslog and /var/log/user.log are filled up with the following messages:
May 2 12:04:45 DELL HP_LaserJet_
May 2 12:04:45 DELL HP_LaserJet_
I tried to print two pages and feeded the paper manually to the printer. The effect was, that i got a message a la 'printer has no paper' and that this message does not disapear even if the print job succeeded and if i fed in new paper.
Ubuntu Release: 8.04 with latest updates
hplip: 2.8.2-0ubuntu8
