Hi. I got linux redhat-9. I bought an HP deskjet 3550 and I have never been
able to print from linux.

When I try to print I got "media tray empty".

I searched out there and found some hints and I read linuxprinting web site,
so I turned cups debug on. First I saw there was a foomatic-rip file missing ,
so I upgraded to the fedora foomatic. and some of my packages, but it keeps
failing.

Then I upgraded the kernel to 2.6.6 with no luck.

This is the output from cups:

d [02/May/2004:19:22:25 +0200] ProcessIPPRequest: Adding fd 8 to OutputSet...
d [02/May/2004:19:22:25 +0200] WriteClient: Removing fd 8 from OutputSet...

W [02/May/2004:19:22:25 +0200] [Job 15] Media tray empty!
I [02/May/2004:19:22:25 +0200] [Job 15] Sending print file, 8192 bytes...

This is:
cups-1.1.19-13
gimp-print-4.2.4-5
foomatic-3.0.0-21.3
kernel version 2.4.20-30.9 or kernel-2.6.6

I found many people complaining like this but no solution. I digged
linuxprinting.org and many other sites unsuccessfully.

Please any hint would be appreciated. thank you very much.
