This may not help but I noticed something weird like this a while back. |

The only way I could fix it was to delete the printer and add it back |
| 24 |
again. Mine is a HP as well so this may be worth trying at least. Also |
| 25 |
note, you should use the HP tool to add this printer. I think it is |
| 26 |
hp-setup. |

On the scanner, it sounds like you need to be added to a group to access |
| 29 |
the scanner as a user. Look in /etc/group and see if you something |
| 30 |
scanner related. |

Hope that helps if no one else has a better idea. |
