Hello and Greetings..
Well the whole key to the printer problems I had was primarily with the
parallel port vs USB and the proper selection of the printer using 'printtool'.
In your case I bet it's your selelction of printers. Notice that you are using
a Cxx type printer. That seems to mean that you have to pick that kind of printer.
Which would be the same as me. Pick the 'hp Deskject 550c/560c/6xxc series.'
I bet things will work.
Let us know how it goes..
