I hit a problem with printing, late 11.2 Alpha0 and M1. My HP Photosmart
C4180 looks OK, but it won't print. I set it up on 3 separate boxes, it
broadcasts and the broadcasts are seen on all boxes on the network.
I could get it to do cartridge alignment, but jobs just stay on the
queue and "http://localhost:631"; the printer goes from green to yellow
and no errors reported under /var/log/cups.
I set up a Lexmark z600 with the same result.
 Bug  #498254 submitted.
Regards
Sid.
