As soon as I did "sudo hp-firmware -i", the printer roared into action.
Here is the output from that command:

:~$ sudo hp-firmware -i
[sudo] password:

So, now that I did that, the printer is working just fine, and printing
normally. Thank you!!!

But what a big job! I'm going to have to do this again on two or three
other Jaunty computers. Will I have to go through the same thing all
over again? or is there a better way?
