HP Deskjet 3420 Lockup

through cups, this is the only printer i know to stop dead in printing and force itself into stop mode on the CUPS console.  Only when printing images though.

This printer runs fine under other systems so i know it's not the printer as it's the first thing i checked.

It requires a restart of linux and a complete reset of the printer to get the printer printing again.

any work arounds?

oh, btw - i am quite impressed at cups, it certainly has done away with the command line for me :>
