Hp got back to me, not sure if the email was "private". To sum it all up they should contact me they said. When they can do something. In the meantime I am months without a working hp printer. Could ubuntu / Kubuntu devs do something?

This is a serious bug again can not emphasize enough. Whoever introduced it does not seem ubuntu / kubuntu as few other distros have them. You see esp for students this is a bad bug. I personally have to do my electronics course frustrated. If anyone thinks this is all about me: World does not revolve around me I know that. But I am not alone that is frustrated. Just speaking out again aginst this bug. I am from my own experience using a compaq rebranded lexmark not native windows printer in linux. It does not align the cartridge. Ending up the lines unreadable as chewed up.

So "2" printers 1 is not working with the green bug the other one is printing but is seriously flawed. It is a nightmare, I am sorry for sounding off the top. But it has been many months now and the linux printing support is terrible. "Hp" printer most models are not typical windows printers. When it started to print green it was the worst thing that could happen. Since the "color" ink is nearly gone it does not switch to pure black. Seems it never used black to start with. Anyhow, rather then this being a rant please, pretty please, do something. Goodness if only I knew line by line coding.

Unfortuntly my knowledge is nothing in coding. Really would chip in instead of complaining here! But? what to do? who will work on this? this can't let be sitting collecting dust. We are talking about a very important piece of device. It is not an optional addon for many people.

Can Ubuntu "creator" get involved in this?
