HP come up trumps for Linux Printing

[nomko]

Just new to Linux - always been a canon user of printers and cameras but as there is no linux driver for my canon.....

Yes, there is: http://sites.google.com/site/tipsandtricksforubuntu/printer-info/canon-drivers.

Hi,

I had problems with my HP LaserJet 1020, see my post here:

http://forum.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=109243

I installed hplib as suggested in this thread from

http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/index.html

but nothing happens now hp-installer even doens't see the printer connected on the usb... damn.

I don't know what to do...

So much praise, but my 64bit Linuxmint 14 doesn't find the HP network printer anymore (after a SW upgrade?). For details please go here: http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=127513
