Upgraded from Xubuntu 12 to 14.04
Printer : HP LaserJet p3015 connected via WiFi router.
When attempting to print anything, the job stays in the print queue with status "Idle - Filter failed"
A first searching through various forums about this problem yielded no solution.
Seemed to be a bug.
Then I checked into my log:
tail -1000 /var/log/syslog | grep -i "hp"
Then I found these lines of particular interest:
Nov 26 19:32:12 LUNA colord: Device added: sysfs-Broadcom_Corp-HP_Integrated_Module
Nov 26 19:32:12 LUNA colord: Profile added: HP-LaserJet-p3015-Gray..
Nov 26 19:32:12 LUNA colord: Profile added: HP-LaserJet-p3015-RGB..
Nov 26 19:32:12 LUNA colord: Device added: cups-HP-LaserJet-p3015
Nov 26 19:42:41 LUNA hpcups[2687]: prnt/hpcups/HPCupsFilter.cpp 548: cupsRasterOpen failed, fd = 0
The last error got me to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1010580 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1010580)

feel free to read this post, but to cut a long story short, these are the commands to solve this problem:
$ lpstat -p
--> this line will return the name of your printer. Mine was called 'HP-LaserJet-p3015'
$ sudo lpadmin -p HP-LaserJet-p3015 -m raw
$ sudo service cups restart
Problem solved !
