Since upgrading from 19.10 to 20.04, I have had problems with printing. I have an HP Envy 5640 all-in one printer scanner attached to my desktop via USB. When I try to print, the printer is recognised, my document appears in the print queue but it’s status seems to be “processing.” I have also ha…

Hi. [image] david.bradford: HP Envy 5640 Have you printed on this printer lately? Just asking. Maybe you could print a test page: https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04527091 Second thought: Have you tested with another USB cable?
