AMI have an HP Officejet 6500 E709n connected wirelessly to a Trendnet wireless router using a dynamic IP (all computers connect to the router dynamically) using the newest driver hplip 3.9.8. It keeps getting a communication error 5012 when I open HP manager. Sometimes it will connect after a reboot of the computer, router and printer and will print a test page, but close HP Manager and the printer loses connection. When I first installed the printer using CUPS it printed ok, but I admit I was determined to be https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=165617 able to use all functions using the HP gui, and that's when it stopped working. I have searched extensively on Google and several forums and have found that it is a known issue but doesn't seem to have a definitive answer. There is a bug report at https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/309833. This computer is a dual boot of jaunty and XP SP3. We have two https://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1249019.html other computers connected to the router, a wireless laptop (Vista) and a desktop rj45 (XP SP3) and of course all print fine in windows. Now I know that sooner or later this problem will be solved (evidently this is a new model of printer), so I will check in regularly to see if there is a solution, and if I ever find a solution, I will post back here. Until then, it still is faster to boot into windows to print, than running upstairs and restarting everything. info is below colin@colin-desktop:~$ hp-info HP Linux Imaging and Printing System (ver. 3.9.8) Device Information Utility ver. 5.2 Copyright (c) 2001-9 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, LP This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.

I ran hp-check, hp-setup, hp-plugin, etc. After a few days' worth of frustration, I've figured it out. The key was this: http://hplipopensource.com/node/216 So after running Code: snmpwalk -Os -c public -v 1 ip.address.of.printer 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.9.1.1.7.0 I got this message: Timeout: No Response from ip.address.of.printer Then I remembered that I had previously turned off SNMP discovery on the printer. All of my Windows computers were working fine with it off so no harm done, right? Well hplip on Linux needs it for some reason, even if you manually specify the IP address of the printer. open up
