USB cups hplip

I'm trying to get an HP D1660 printer working under FreeBSD. cups/hp-setup recognizes the printer, the kde notifications even appear to work correctly. The problem is nothing is ever printed nor does the printer even attempt to initialize.

hp-check shows everything is fine including printer communication excepting a couple linux-specific items. The cups file /var/log/cups/error_log doesn't show any errors like failing backends or anything, it seems to simply indicate everything went fine.

If I hook up the printer to a Mac, it works.

Any pointers on resolving this?

cups-base-1.4.4
hplip-3.10.9
 
Then you probably need to figure out how to crank up the debug level in hplip and / or cups to get more debug info.
You could try to do a verbose boot of your machine - perhaps that will give you more debug output for cups / hplip. I haven't had problems with hplip in a long time, so I don't remember if that helped or not.
