Bug Description
Driver: hpijs 3.10.x (I've tried 3.10.2, 3.10.5, 3.10.6 and 3.10.9, all contain the same problems)
OS: Ubuntu 10.10
My DeskJet D2660 declines to physically print anything other than the calibration sheet. When I print a test page afterwards, it tells me that a print job has been started, and then it tells me that the very same print job has completed, but nothing prints on my printer.
I have tried this with pretty much all of the 3.10.x versions and they all behave the same.
I have tried with 3.9.12, which works, but it declines to use the black cartridge, so it isn't really a solution for me as all blacks then gets printed in this mushy brown because it uses only the color cartridge. Also, the colors look weak when using the 3.9.x branch.
I have also tried the hpcups driver, which works just fine, but it won't allow me to calibrate, so everything I print have shadows because of missing print head calibration and I can't seem to find a way to calibrate when using hpcups.
So, basically, I have the hpijs driver which allows me to calibrate but not print other stuff. And then i have the hpcups driver which works just fine, but won't allow me to calibrate.
If you need any log files, please let me know which ones and I will attach them.
can you please let me know what do you mean by missing print head and how are calibrating?
