[Hampshire] Printer problem

My Previous PC died so I have had to change PC's and at the same time
took the opportunity to change distro. I am now running Linux Mint
Debian Edition.

I have a HP 2600n colour laserjet printer which is on my network, I can
connect to it and print a test page without a problem from the print
control panel in gnome. I can print from gedit and Thunderbird (there
might be more not tired all yet) but I can't print from Libre Office or Adobe Acrobat.
When I try nothing happens. If I open HPLIP I can print any document
through that interface without a problem.

This printer worked perfectly with my previous distro Mepis 8 so I know
it will work with Linux

Any thoughts??
