hplip Officejet 6000
On a Lenny system, there is an HP Officejet 6000 printer on USB. It was
installed through CUPS GUI as name Officejet and prints fine. However,
I have been unsuccessful at getting hplip to talk to it. Installed are:
ii hplip 3.10.5-4~bpo50+1
ii hplip-cups 3.10.5-4~bpo50+1
ii hplip-data 3.10.5-4~bpo50+1
ii hplip-gui 3.10.5-4~bpo50+1
I ran hp-setup as root. It saw the printer and CUPS now shows it as a second
printer named Officejet_6000_E609a. lpstat shows:
device for Officejet: usb://HP/Officejet%206000%20E609a?serial=CN0CS1F08C057W
device for Officejet_6000_E609a:

But for example running
$ hp-levels -g Officejet_6000_E609a
