 Occurring on hrev43550-2hn.

 I installed an HP LaserJet 1150 printer as a PCL5 Compatible printer.
 This same printer works as a PCL5 printer on XP, Vista, Ubuntu 10.04LTS,
 PC-BSD 8.2 and Mac OSX 10.4.  On all of those setups, once the printer
 driver has been install, as soon as a print job is sent the printer lights
 start to blink, the printer starts warming up and gets into action, even
 if the print job does not print.  On Haiku, the the printer never starts
 to warn up, no blinking light, no action.  I can only conclude that the
 printer never receives an actual print job.

 You can see the Printers preflet working and 'prcesseing' a job, but the
 printer itself never warns up, even when clicking the "Print test page"
 button.
