I can't get any response from my new HP Deskjet 710c.
Using the printer setup tool I try moving it
around from /dev/lp0 to /dev/lp2 and printing test pages
to its queue and direct to the port.  Only /dev/lp1
does not give a device error, but even it doesnt print.

Nothing - no blinking light as the troubleshooting
guide suggests, no paper movement, nowt.

It works fine on Win98.

Is this a PPA-related problem, or something more basic?
Where do I begin to debug it?

thanks,
Tommy
