Re: Difficulty with PSC 1210

You have

direct ptal:/mlc:usb:psc1200

in your "lpinfo -v" output. This means that the old HPOJ is still 
running. You must stop HPOJ, otherwise HPLIP will not see your device. 
So do (the commands in parentheses if the first commands do not work, 
all commands logged in as root):

chkconfig --del hpoj (or    mv /etc/ptal /etc/ptal.orig)
service hpoj stop (or    /etc/init.d/hpoj stop)

Then do

killall -HUP cupsd

and the device should get visible with "hp:/..." in the "lpinfo -v" 
output. And then you will be able to create the correct CUPS queue.
