Bug Description
Hello guys...this is NOT SOLVED! as stated in https:/
Today I installed a HP Laserjet 1018 printer the Acer 4520 laptop, of my boss, via usb (no usb hub, just direct plug) using HPLIP 3.9.10 on Ubuntu 9.10, the result was great...or almost great...because after rebooting Ubuntu, the printer doesn't print anyting!
Annoyance secuence:
1 print as many pages you want (tahts is actually ok)
2 go for lunch, so turn off laptop
3 go back and boot Ubuntu/Linux
2 some noise is given by the printer (maybe startup?)
3 the printer is listed in my printers admin panel
4 send something to print...nothing happens print spool says "processing, is the printer pluged in?"
To solve it, i have to (It is real, I´m not kidding):
1 unplug usb
2 turn off printer
3 turn on printer
4 plug in usb
And after a few secconds, te printer is listed again, accepting jobs, and...REALLY PRINTING...wow, at last!, i can´t believe it!
Please....what is on wrong with this?
Is there a sane way to get this printer stable on Linux?, you know, just pluggin it and be working all day long, without the need of all this kung-fu workarounds...jeje, imagine me explaining all this steps to my boss...
Now serious, please provide exact steps to solve this annoyance...
Thanks a lot in advice
Bumo... sorry.. .really need to solve this...please advise.
