Introduction
Hewlett Packard Printers are very well supported on GNU/Linux thanks to the HP Linux Imaging and Printing project (HPLIP). The HPLIP project includes binary printer drivers (HPIJS drivers) and tools for maintenance of your printer (checking of ink levels, cleaning and aligning cartridges, ...). Nearly every HP printer and PSC (Printer/Scanner/Copier) can be made to work thanks to this project. Ubuntu GNU/Linux 5.10 "Breezy Badger" provides excellent support for HPLIP, it includes HPLIP version 0.9.5 installed and running by default. You can check if your printer is supported and if maintenance tools will work for your printer (Services/Status=Yes) in the file /usr/share/doc/hplip-base/hplip_readme.html under the section "Product Support". This document describes the Ubuntu way for installing you printer in Ubuntu GNU/Linux 5.10 "Breezy Badger". It is targetted at direct connected USB or LPT (Parallel) printers and not at network printers.
Working around bugs
There are some major bugs in Ubuntu GNU/Linux 5.10 "Breezy Badger" that affect HP printer installation, luckily some of them have simple workarounds. Make sure you run these workarounds before adding your printer. 1. Workaround for bug #24999: two duplicate hpijs drivers in gnome-cups-add and cups "add printer" web interface. Open a terminal/console:
$ sudo rm /usr/share/cups/model/hplip
2. Workaround for:
bug #24899: two manufacturer indications for HP cause users not to find correct printer model/driver,
bug #32545: wrong recommended driver in gnome-cups-add.
Open a terminal/console:
$ sudo sed -i 's/HP (HPLIP)/HP/' /usr/share/ppd/hplip/*
Add a USB/LPT printer using gnome-cups-manager
1. Connect your HP printer to your computer using USB or Parallel.
Note: See your printer documentation for specific instructions on connecting the USB or Parallel cable to your printer and computer.
2. Make sure your printer is powered ON.
3. Go to System -> Administration -> Printing
4. Click "New Printer".
5. Follow this step for autodetected printers. Skip this step for Parallel (LPT) printers that can't be autodetected.
Nearly all USB printers and some LPT printers are autodetected. The autodetected printers are listed under "Use a detected printer".
5. Follow this step for Parallel port printers that can't be autodetected.
Select "Use another printer by specifying a port". Choose "Parallel Port #1" or "Parallel Port #2" from the list, do NOT choose CANON or EPSON parallel ports since these are special!
6. Select "Forward".
7. Your Printer Model and the recommended driver for it are preselected.
If your printer is not listed under "Model" then select the printer model that most closely matches your printer.
You can choose another printer driver for your printer under "Driver" if you like (e.g. pcl3 if present).
Keep the "recommended" driver if you don't know which driver to use.
8. Click "Apply". Your printer is succesfully added now.
9. Right-click on the newly created printer and select "Properties".
Under the tab "Paper" and "Advanced" you can change some "default" settings for your printer like page size, quality, resolution, print medium, ...
10. Click "Print a Test Page".
If the test page prints out OK then your printer is installed succesfully.
11. Close the "Properties" and "Printers" window.
