I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and have a HP-Laserjet-3005P network printer. Occasionally (perhaps related to rebooting) the printer, which is setup as the default printer, becomes disabled. After realizing that I'm not getting anything printed, I must then open printing preferences and click on "enabled". Then it prints happily until the next time that it becomes disabled...

Any ideas why this is happening and/or how I could fix it?

I know I'm giving very little information, I can't think of anything else to give...if there's something I should be providing, please let me know.
