I have an HP PSC 1410 printer and I am having issues with getting it
working properly with hplip-0.9.11. I followed all the directions as
outlined at http://am-productions.biz/docs/hplip.php, and while the
connection was apparently a success, it will not print. Nothing happens
when printing a test page, either from hp-setup or the HP Device
Manager, and I get only this in /var/log/messages:

Aug  2 07:35:05 Compy kernel: All threads purged from ugen0.1
Aug  2 07:35:05 Compy kernel: All threads purged from ugen0.2
Aug  2 07:35:05 Compy kernel: All threads purged from ugen0.3
Aug  2 07:35:05 Compy kernel: All threads purged from ugen0.4
Aug  2 07:35:05 Compy kernel: All threads purged from ugen0.7
Aug  2 07:35:05 Compy kernel: All threads purged from ugen0.8

Also, when printing from an application like Konqueror using CUPS and
server /var/run/cups.sock:631, I get a message box saying

===============================================================
An error occurred while retrieving the printer list:

Connection to CUPS server failed. Check that the CUPS server is
correctly installed and running. Error: host not found.
===============================================================

But I _can_ print when using LPD or LPR. Firefox is the only
application that lists "CUPS/PSC_1400" as a viable printer. In fact,
Firefox is the only brower that shows the printer when I go to 
http://localhost:631. Speaking of the web interface, if I try to print
a test page with it, I get a "Quota limit reached" error page.
