It turns out to be the driver. HPLIP does indeed only recognise HP photo paper. The CUPS driver I just installed instead of the HP driver works fine on any type of paper, photo or not with 11.3. But I must say that the Yast printer installation dialogue is very difficult to understand. But for 60 Euros the HP2200 produces superb quality. A4 prints on any photo paper.
Wow....! Yes, I remember this thread, thank you for reporting back. So, the hplip thing only recognizes hp photo paper, and the cups driver recognizes paper of any brand and quality? Wow. What a surprise... The Spanish expression would be "barren para casa", don't know exactly how to translate. They want the beans home, perhaps. Me, I have an HP printer. I do have hplip installed, but I use the cups driver. I think. I have several drivers installed: I usually use the PS driver, but if the image is too big for the printer memory I switch to the hpijs or pcl3 versions. Never had a problem, but I have always preferred cups drivers for my printers, if available. I do my shopping carefully O;-) - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
