HP LaserJet Pro M176n Colour Laser MFP CF547A

I bought this printer to use with Linux, I'm fortunate not having to use any windows at all. I have used many HP printers both at work and home without any trouble so I followed the pattern and bought the MFP176n to replace an HP 2600n colour laserjet. I've been using Linux for over 14 years now, so I'd say I know it fairly well and usually setting up printing is easy and straightforward. However, I have yet to be able to print a single page other than test pages via the browser status page. I have tried four different Linux distros with it, 3 Fedora versions and one Ubuntu. The results of my efforts are visible here:- https://answers.launchpad.net/hplip/+question/260362 I'm really disappointed as the printer is advertised on HP's website as fully supported under Linux (see http://store.hp.com/UKStore/Merch/Product.aspx?id=CF547A&opt=B19&sel=DEF#merch-tech-specs) and referring to the special HP website for OpenSource, http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/models/color_laserjet/hp_color_laserjet_pro_mfp_m176n.html, it is fully supported by the hplip package. Given that I can't use this, I'll be asking to return it and get my money back. Andrew Stringer.
