I wholeheartedly recommend using the DJ9xx driver from
hpinkjet.sourceforge.net. It was trivial to install the RPMs and the
print quality is substantially better than the cdj550 driver. Note that
it replaces your entire Ghostscript interpreter system, so this may help
your printing problem. I have Level 2 set in my SO printer configuration
and it works like a champ (although now I have to get some paper which
absorbs a little less ink :-).
