Comment 27 for bug 133982

I too ran into problems trying to get CUPS to recognise and initialise my HP Deskjet 710c on a Xubuntu Hardy Heron.

The tips here enabled me to print the test page successfully.

Note that Xubuntu users will not have gedit so use this:

sudo mousepad /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.cupsd

I added the
/etc/* r,
immediately after the line:
/usr/lib/** rm,

I stopped the apparmor with:
sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor stop

and re-ran the CUPS link to detect my printer.

All is well!

Note that there is a typo in a post above - there is an "r" missed out in apparmor which of course makes for a meaningless command.

My thanks to the contributors to this thread.
