Hi:

When configuring the printer under CUPS, try the "AppSocket/HP JetDirect
protocol" instead of ipp, set as the URI "socket://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" (substitute
the x by your printers ip) and select the "HP ColorLaserJet v2013.114
Postscript" printer (or select the propper PPD file). This configuration works
for me.
Hope it helps you.
