printing problems with TC3 fedora 18 x86_64 HP Laserjet 1200

[Antonio Olivares]

Dear folks,

using TC3 netinstall cd, I managed to install Fedora 18 preBeta successfully:

[olivares@localhost ~]$ uname -a
Linux localhost 3.6.1-1.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Oct 8 17:19:09 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

However, I cannot print.  I setup the printer and when I print I see:

PCL XL error
     Subsytem:  KERNEL
     Error:     IllegalTag
     Operator:  0x45
     Position:  825

and that is what I get when I do a test page.  Printer is an HP LaserJet 1200 series and it printed correctly with Fedora 16.  How do I troubleshoot this?

I will be out for two days [weekend Sat. + Sun.] will be back on Monday in case I get suggestions to try things out.  Machine is at work.

Thanks for any advices and suggestions given.

Regards,

Antonio

Make sure you have the hplip package installed.  If not, then delete the 
printer, install that package, then setup the printer again.

hplip is installed.  Printer fails to print :(

[root@localhost ~]# yum install hplip
Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
Package hplip-3.12.10-2.a.fc18.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

Will try to follow advice given by Tim.

Regards,

Antonio

Please file a bug report against one of the printing components e.g.
cups.

It will be useful to attach the troubleshoot.txt file you get from
following the troubleshooting procedure:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_printing_problems#Printing_troub...

It is useful to know that it worked in Fedora 16. Hopefully we can
narrow down what the difference is.

Thanks,
Tim.
