Description Nico Kadel-Garcia 2004-11-08 12:43:57 UTC 
Description: On Fedora Core 3 Test 3 and its cups-1.1.21-4, I'm 
unable to successfully print *anything* to HP Color LaserJet 8500 
printers with the now available HP Color LaserJet 8500 printer 
drivers.

How reproducible: 
1: Install FC2test3
2: Set up a network printer of HP Color LaserJet 8500 series with 
matching drivers.
3: Try to print a test job to it. (Pick letter-size test jobs, since 
CUPS still defaults to A3.)

Actual results: Various error messages occur, I'll detail those if I 
can find time, but other network printers work fine, so it's not the 
networking layer. And FC1 and FC2 can print to it fine, but only have 
the 8550GN print driver available, so it may be the new 8500 driver.

Expected results: A successful print job of any kind. 

Additional info: I used to be able to print to these with Fedora Core 
2 with HP Color LaserJEt 8550GN drivers, but I don't believe that 
CUPS on that FC2 had a specific 8500 driver.
