Description of problem: I own an HP Photosmart C4180. Fedora detect this printer without problems. But when i want to print, nothing happen. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-printer-0.7.74.4-3.fc8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Fedora (fresh install) 2. Launch system-config-printer 3. See HP printer detected. 4. Start printing test page Actual results: Nothing happen Expected results: Test page get printed Additional info: Installing hplip package solve the problem, but nobody tell me
The same thing happens to me with my HP Photosmart C3180 -- it is quite mysterious and I got very lucky stumbling upon this bug.
What probably ought to happen is that system-config-printer-applet, which is responsible for displaying the "new printer" notification bubble, should perform the same checks as system-config-printer to see if the necessary drivers are installed, and offer to install them if need be.
That sounds reasonable to me. Thanks for creating this bug in the first place. I can verify that installing hplip made my printer work as well.
Yes! Comment #2 sounds as the right path, because when adding a HP Network Printer in system-config-printer, Fedora ask me to install hplip package to work.
Fixed upstream.

Not sure this is working right in 0.7.74.9-2.fc8. I'm not getting a notification bubble.
