I tried several PDFs and all printed fine. I switched from the hpcups driver to HP Officejet Pro k8600 hpijs, 3.16.5 (color, 2-sided printing). Problem went away. I've run out of cyan ink, so all printing is black and white, but there's no gray background, so I'll assume it's behaving. Thank you for the hint about different driver.

where did you find or what is "hpcups"? never heard of it.

It is a driver listed in the CUPS admin Web page. I configure printers in CUPS.

...

locate k8600 /usr/share/cups/model/manufacturer-PPDs/hplip/hp-officejet_pro_k8600-hpijs.ppd.gz /usr/share/cups/model/manufacturer-PPDs/hplip/hp-officejet_pro_k8600.ppd.gz

so you are/were actually using hplip, you just configured your print system using cups. I am using /usr/share/cups/model/manufacturer-PPDs/hplip/hp-officejet_pro_8620-hpijs.ppd.gz localhost:631 Driver: HP Officejet Pro 8620 hpijs, 3.16.5 (color, 2-sided printing) I still fail to understand "hpcups". -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
