I also have a PSC1210.  After several months fighting it, I found a small note 
on the hpoj site that the PSC1210 won't print and scan at the same time with 
hpoj-0.91.  They say you need to load the CVS version. 

So I spent three hours trying to get 
cvs -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/hpoj co hpoj
to work.  Never get a prompt back and it eventually times out.
cvs -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/hpoj login
asks for a password, but never get prompt back after newline.

My previous post (Nov.24) was never answered.

This just isn't any way to get Linux onto the desktop.  I'll bet it will be 
easier to switch my wife to windows than to get her printer working.
