ok, got this working a couple days ago as stated, tried to print something with viewnior for the first time today, it didn't have a printer icon, tried to print the file with mtpaint, refused to print as well:s

Is this specific to the hp drivers I use? What software do you guys use to print images?

PeasyPrint. Slacko 5.4 may already have it in the Graphic menu.

Installed it, says it's printing. refuses to print.

went back to localhost:631, tried to print a test page but it won't print it. This worked a couple days ago and I haven't changed any configuration since then. How is that even possible?

Are you connected by USB or wifi?

Have you recently used the device as a scanner? If so, reboot it.
