Bug Description

Inkscape doesn't crash, but it just won't print on my HP-D5460 printer. I tried from .48.1 and the latest dev release. The print spooler pops-up, but says 0 jobs to print. Printer doesn't do anything. Shows empty sheet if 'Show Preview Before Printing' is selected in my printer driver. Export to .pdf works, but it's an extra step.

O/S Win7 Professional 32-bit on Lenovo T500 (2242-CTO) laptop.
HP driver version 6.1.2009

I have a very similar problem with a HP Photosmart B110 Series printer. After replacing my old HP DJ 930 by the photosmart printer Inkscape 0.48.2 isn't able to print anymore. The OS is Win7 home premium 64 bit.
When i start a printjob from inkscape the printer seems to start printing but except some noise from the printer only the print job is cleared from the spooler.

similar to Bug 883524, which is a WiFi printer?

Yes, exact like this. Sorry I didn't find this issue when I searched for the inkscape printing issues.

Very probably a duplicate of #531342 "HP Color Printer-deletes print job before printing" (the wifi connection doesn't seem to be part of the bug). Don't hesitate to comment if you thing this is a different issue.
