Greetings all.
I finally got my printer to work with RedHat7.0. It is a HP895Cxi printer
and while it now works with RedHat I have a few questions.

First of all , I had to change from a USB connection to Parallel port.
That probably was the key move that got things working. Next, I selected
a different printer selection using 'printtool' and that got things moving
right along. In fact, it prints very well now in both color and B&W.

Here is what I have left to fix. After I print the printer is left
blinking as if it is out of paper or ink, which is both not true.
Secondly I had to pick an older printer to get things to work: HP Deskjet
550c/560c/6xxc series.  There are other selections like HP Deskjet 890
which is closer to my printer (895Cxi) but that won't work. It seems to
'key' here is the 'Cxi'.

Does anyone know how I can update things to have a more current list so
that the selection in printtool will show HP Deskjet 895Cxx series??

And what do I have to do to stop the printer from blinking after it
prints?
