Excellent. At least we are getting somewhere now. Have a look at the bug I referenced. There is an issue as CUPS returns details according to locale setting (LANG) but hplip only understands LANG=en responses. It has been forwarded upstream, but they haven't done much about it :-( https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/225970 Please feel free to add your discontent to the upstream bug report. Mark
