I've googled this to death and have found only a few references, the best being a Ubuntu solution which I didn't understand.
Perhaps if you posted the URL, somebody might understand it?

OK, here's the link: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/32302 It initially goes into a sequence for setting up printers with the hplip software, but you will see later on that it is a bug in the gnome-cups-manager that is supposedly fixed in Ubuntu's Edgy. Also, note the tirade at the end of the link as to the degree of knowledge required to patch the problem. I'm no newbie to Linux, but this has had me running in circles, eventually just deleting the handmade printer definition and renaming the auto-generated definition to match the deleted one. It does look like there are some nice HP provided utilities. Now, as for my home system, the printers are on a network server and I'm still auto-detecting similar printers, but as long as I setup ALL printers through the TurboPrint interface, they work just fine. If I use the Yast interface, I run into similar problems. Note: My print server is running SuSE 9.3. My user boxes are running 10.2.
