Bug Description

Inkscape's new for me. So, I've drawn some figures and then wanted to print them out.
Systemconfiguration is Windows 7 Professional 64bit and printer is HP Officejet 4500 G510a-f connected via USB.
After pushing the printing button in inscape the printer seems to get a signal, but that then was it.
Opening the printing queue shows an empty queue.
How can I get my drawings printed from inkscape directly without going via pdf-saving the file and printing from Adobe?

Thank you very much for your support.

Sincererly yours.

It happens to me, when I try to print to HP LaserJet MF 4580 DN, that a black page is printed instead of my drawing.

I'm using Windows 7 Pro, 64-bit edition.

I forgot to mention: Used Inkscape version is v.0.48.4 r9939

Printing seems to work correctly when generating a PDF document, i.e. with CutePDF virtual printer driver.

I cannot find any info on HP LaserJet MF 4580 DN.
- Could you confirm that this is HP, not Canon?
- Is there a website that would provide info on it?
- is this a USB connection?
