I bought an HP p6130y (quad core amd w/ 8 gig ram... 9.10 is FAST!) and it came with a HP D1530 printer. I installed the printer using the standard open source printer driver, and it works, at least part of the time.

But there are intermittent times when my mouse will stop responding while printer (and not come back), or that it will only print half the sheet, if I set the printer to print draft, it'll print half the page (if I'm lucky) and then stop. Other times it does nothing.

Did I do something wrong? The printer is connected through usb, and works great in win7, but I'm a developer and want to make the switch nearly entirely to Ubuntu/Linux.

I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 64 through Wubi.

Can you guys help me out?
