Even after I upgraded to F10, I'm still having problems and I have no idea 
how to proceed. Most times when I print, I only get the top few inches of 
the sheet. Afterwards, the job is still sitting in the queue and the hp 
process is running off with half the cpu. Here's the process hierarchy:

root     Ss   10:54   0:00 cupsd
lp       S    10:58   0:00  \_ /usr/bin/perl \
 		/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip 48 steveo ca6.ps 1 \
 		PrintoutMode=Normal PageSize=Letter Quality=300GrayscaleK \
 		Duplex=DuplexNoTumble InputSlot=Default number-up=1 \
 		job-uuid=urn:uuid:61669726-b09d-3489-6a08-d76f16a34193
lp       S    10:58   0:00  |   \_ /usr/bin/perl \
 		/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip 48 steveo ca6.ps 1 \
 		PrintoutMode=Normal PageSize=Letter Quality=300GrayscaleK \
 		Duplex=DuplexNoTumble InputSlot=Default number-up=1 \
 		job-uuid=urn:uuid:61669726-b09d-3489-6a08-d76f16a34193 
lp       S    10:58   0:00  |       \_ /usr/bin/perl \
 		/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip 48 steveo ca6.ps 1 \
 		PrintoutMode=Normal PageSize=Letter Quality=300GrayscaleK \
 		Duplex=DuplexNoTumble InputSlot=Default number-up=1 \
 		job-uuid=urn:uuid:61669726-b09d-3489-6a08-d76f16a34193
lp       S    10:58   0:00  |       \_ gs -sstdout=%stderr -dBATCH \
 		 -dPARANOIDSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE \
 		-sDEVICE=ijs -sIjsServer=hpijs \
 		-sDeviceManufacturer=HEWLETT-PACKARD \
 		-sDeviceModel=HP LaserJet -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=612 \
 		-dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=792 \
 		-dDuplex=true -dTumble=false -r30
lp       S    10:58   0:00  |           \_ hpijs
lp       R    10:58   3:03  \_  \
hp:/par/hp_LaserJet_1320_series?device=/dev/parport0 48 steveo ca6.ps 1 \
PrintoutMode=Normal PageSize=Letter Quality=300GrayscaleK \
Duplex=DuplexNoTumble InputSlot=Default number-up=1 \
job-uuid=urn:uuid:61669726-b09d-3489-6a08-d76f16a34193

The hp process is the last one.

Sometimes if I restart cups, it might print, but most of the time I only 
get the top of the sheet.

In my cupsd.conf, I set LogLevel debug.

In my /var/log/cups/error_log, I don't see anything that looks horrible, 
but I could be wrong.

Can anyone suggest something I can do to get further in this problem?

TIA
