How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:

Expected Results:  Stopping the HP OfficeJet Linux driver.
 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
This program manages devices controlled by the HP OfficeJet Linux
driver (hpoj).  It attempts to probe your computer for local parallel-
and USB-connected devices, and allows you to specify network addresses
for remote JetDirect-connected devices.
 
If you experience any difficulties in detecting your device(s), then
refer to the hpoj documentation for troubleshooting information.

Currently defined device names ([*]=default):
    *** The following devices are using an obsolete configuration
    *** file format.  Use "/etc/init.d/hpoj setup"
    *** to delete and re-probe them:
    --> "mlc:usb:OfficeJet_K80xi"
 
Press <Enter> alone to continue, or if you would like to delete
or reconfigure one of the above-listed devices, then enter the

Additional info:

I only get hpoj to detect my printer after editing /etc/sysconfig/i18n and
change LANG from en_US.UTF-8 to en_US
