Yes, 'H4' could very well be 'A4'. But now, since running emerge -C hpjis and emerge hplip, the error I'm getting is 'W2 INVALID PERS' which, according to the ambiguous error chart taped to the machine, may have something to do with not having Postscript installed. Well, under /usr/portage/virtual there is no postscript but there is ghostscript which *is* installed. |

"Ready" is merely an LED and not a functioning button. |

There is an 'MP Paper Size' button on top of the printer but clicking it does nothing. |

FWIW, the printer will print a test page after clicking 'Finish' in hp-setup. But attempting to print any other file results in the "invalid personality" error mentioned above. |
