Comment 11 for bug 289410

From Shane Wiley
I followed the advice here and got the HP 1020 to work with Ubuntu UNTIL
there was an error (eg out of paper), then everything froze.
I even had the printer go to Abort if there was an error by applying this in
the printer setup, but this did not seem to help. The only way to unfreeze
is to boot my laptop into Windows XP, then print a document on the HP, then
go back to Ubuntu.
Any help on this out there??
By the way, the errors on the printer don't flag with a red light on the
printer.
