problem with fc 13 and hplip

I set up FC 13 as a guest on a KVM host, and I installed the latest
HPLIP from the sourceforge site. (The fedora rpm hadn't worked at all.)
I'm trying to print to an HP3050 attached to another box on my LAN, but
it seems to be  driver problem with FC 13.

I can print very simple files -- so I can send the file to the print
server, but I fail to print most web pages in irefox. I've tried
printing to a ps file, but end up with a blank page as soon as the page
becomes a little  complex.

I installed HPLIP 3.10.9 on the guest; the host is running CentOS 5.5,
with HPLIP 3.10.6, and I can printly correctly to the same printer. The
guest is running a 32-bit system, but the host is 64. I'll try dropping
back to 3.10.6 if no one has a cleaner solution.

Thanks.
