HP Laserjet M1005MFP on Fedora 15

All looked good for my printer on Fedora 15 - on plugging it in, it was detected and some installation occurred. Unfortunately when trying to print it failed, and lpstat gave the info below -


[steve@aspireone753 ~]$ lpstat -t

A further check in /var/log/messages revealed -
