As is defined in the subject, I have this HP printer, ethernet attached, and
works perfectly with several Linux machines (CentOS 5.3 64-bit; Fedora 13
64-bit; Windows XP; Windows Vista; Windows 7). I've got 2 eCS machines (1.2R
and 2.0 GA) and for the life of me, I cannot get this printer to print with
either of me eCS machines! The CUPS installation goes without a hitch (I've
got a HP DeskJet 990Cse USB
attached that does work). But I get stymied at the point where I have to
define the connection type (ipp; socket; lpd; etc.). I cannot find any clear
definition. Does anyone have any idea of what's needed? I get the following
messages:
/cups/lib/cups/backend/hp.exe failed
/cups/lib/cups/filter/hpcups.exe failed

Here's some of the printers technical information:
