I'm sure that the problem is not with cups and driver but with connectivity. I really don't understand why there is no way to select USB port.
Of course this printer should be detected 'automagically' but it is not - and more if I try to set printer manually then there is no way to select usb port.
As I said earlier 'hp no_device_found' as the only available port is propably main problem.
I upgraded to new cups 1.2.0-0ubuntu2 but nothing changed.
And I cleaned error_log again and now this is an output:
E [11/May/2006:20:30:04 +0200] CUPS-Add-Modify-Printer: Unauthorized
E [11/May/2006:20:54:52 +0200] [Job 5] No %%BoundingBox: comment in header!
But more interesting part is from /var/log/messages:

No there is nothing else in error_log.

Hope this will help to make this printer usable on ubuntu.
And the most funny thing is that this printer was workable on dapper (!).
