Restarting "service hplip restart" worked but 'print screen' gives
me nothing.
What do I need to do now please
does the
Thanks david
I need an explanation of off-line. What does the cups web pages say
about the printer? Does it indicate that you can start the printer? If
it does then start the printer. That worked for me.

By off-line I mean the printer is not recieving any jobs
Thanks david
As Aaron said, start the printer from the CUPS page. The printer state
should be "idle,accepting jobs, published".
I am puzzled by the fact that /sbin/lsusb could not be found,
however. You shouldn't need to sudo to run that command. It does not
require root permissions.
I have an HP2410 attached to my F7 system and I'm seeing the following:
$ /sbin/lsusb
Bus 005 Device 003: ID 0409:0059 NEC Corp. HighSpeed Hub
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus

Is it possible that the problem is with the USB subsystem(s) ?
If you do
rpm -qa | grep usb
does the usbutils package show up? Any others? This may be drawing
you away from the printer problem, but I was drawn to the error
message that said "No devices found on the 'usb' bus." I'm
approaching my limit of analysis capability here. Hopefully someone
else can help enlighten both of us.

I tried rpm -qa | grep usb and this is the result .
david@reddwarf ~]$ sudo rpm -qa | grep usb
