I'm using 9.04 - the Jaunty Jackalope

I had the same problem with a hp 4050 tn printer and every other driver worked except the HP Laserjet 4050 Series Postscript [en] (recommended)
This was great no errors but couldn't setup duplexer or 3rd tray for the printer.

this was using the default HP Linux Imaging and Printing (HPLIP)

I changed the connection type to APPSocket/HP JetDirect

and off it went no errors and no problems accessing duplexer or 3rd tray.

not a fix but maybe a workaround for the problem so people can use trays or duplex units.
