Debian/Ubuntu and HP LaserJet 1320 problem

[Madison Kelly]

Hi all,

  At work I have Debian 3.1 Stable and another guy here has Ubuntu Dapper
Drake Beta and we both have the same problem. The office has an HP
LaserJet 1320 printer with one of those small parallel port to network
adapters. We can both print fine in the end, *but*, we both have a
problem that when we send a job to the printer, it starts blinking the
orange light. Once we walk over and press the green (main) button it
prints fine. If we sent two or more jobs at a time we'll have to press
the button before each job.

  Needless to say, this is a touch annoying.

  The oddest part is that until recently the other guy had an older
Mandrake (9.1?) and it didn't do this. When he printed the job would
start right away. So I know that it isn't a problem with Linux per-se.
That said though, google didn't yield any clues (that I could find). So
any help would be much appreciated!

grr, printers!
