I can print, I can scan, but not scan then print
I am running Ubuntu 8.10 with a headless server running 8.04. I have a HP C3180 printer/scanner connected to the USB port on the server.
I can scan using Xsane, but then I have to turn the printer off and on to be able to print. Any ideas?
I used these instructions to get it up and running, but I seem to have stepped on the CUPS / HPLIP toes somehow.

Note: hp-check can be run in three modes:
1. Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling the
HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the proper dependencies
are installed to successfully compile HPLIP.
2. Run-time check mode (-r or --run): Use this mode to determine if a distro
supplied package (.deb, .rpm, etc) or an already built HPLIP supplied tarball
has the proper dependencies installed to successfully run.
3. Both compile- and run-time check mode (-b or --both) (Default): This mode
will check both of the above cases (both compile- and run-time dependencies).

error_log is set to level: warn

note: LogLevel debug
note: Save the file and then restart CUPS (see your OS/distro docs on how to restart CUPS).
