@Bruce R -- thanks for the response.  I'll just add that this is a regression from a previous install of Ubuntu.  I'd have to dig out the old hard disk and boot it to remember which version, exactly, but on a prior version of Ubuntu (I'm thinking was 8.10 or maybe 8.04) libinklevel and and inkblot worked perfectly with this printer.

In any case, marking the bug 'invalid' doesn't seem sensible.  An 'invalid' bug will never be addressed.  I can understand a bug being marked with a low priority, and/or marked as a 'won't fix' for a particular release, but a bona fide brokeness should be carried in the database as an open bug for as long as the defect exists.  Severity, impact, priority, fix schedule, and disposition are five orthogonal bug attributes and are too often conflated.  (I realize your database may not have 5 attributes to twiddle.) 'Invalid' is not a severity, 'invalid' is a disposition.

Thanks,
