Description of problem: under new kernel-4.9.40: none of my 2 printers HP officejet pro 8000-a809 and HP officetjet 7310 work, although they worked well under mageia5 (see bug #21381) I consider that an operating system under which it is impossible to print has value zero Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible:in a terminal, type: [toto@magaux ~]$ lpr -P Officejet_Pro_8000_A809 -o PageSize=A4 -o sides=one-sided -o Resolution=1200dpi reim.pdf lpr: The printer or class does not exist. the same for officejet 7310 Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
How is that bug different from bug 21381? Did it end up working with a previous kernel and no longer works with 4.9.40? If not, one bug report is enough, and the issue is most likely not kernel-related.

I recall you I installed mga6 by migrating from mga5
Thanks for the confirmation, then I suggest we keep only bug 21381, as the two bug reports are duplicates. You can comment in bug 21381 that you upgraded to kernel 4.9.40 and that it did not solve the situation - no need to open a new bug report for each kernel upgrade. As I mentioned, the issue my very well not be kernel related (still, it's interesting to know that upgrading the system did not solve things magically, it allows to eliminate potential culprits). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 21381 ***
Status: NEW => RESOLVEDResolution: (none) => DUPLICATE

When I'll have some free time, I'll install mageia6 directly from its image.iso to examine if this bug does persist or not
