From: David Baron on 5 May 2008 15:50 I have been unable to get this to recognize my HP printer, either looking directly to the parallel port or using CUPS. I set the driver to the one which includes hplip, manually changed the URI to hp://..., nothing helps. No one on their forum could solve this.

You don't say which version of Debian you're using, or which version of HPLIP. However, using Lenny and had version 2.7.10 of HPLIP working, but 2.8.2 didn't recognise my printer; It seems the hp: driver is broken. Consequently, I had to redo my printer configs in CUPS to get anything working. -- Regards _ / ) "The blindingly obvious is / _)rad never immediately apparent" I'll be the paint on the side if you'll be the tin Love Song - The Damned

Running Etch here using hplip 1.6.10-3etch1 to run a HP Deskjet F2180 that my wife bought and I hate immensely. Wasn't particularly hard to get it to work from memory. I configured it with the instructions at linuxprinting.org. Also I use CUPS here that might change things. Adrian -- 24x7x365 != 24x7x52 Stupid or bad maths? <erno> hm. I've lost a machine.. literally _lost_. it responds to ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my apartment it is. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Try running: hp-makeuri /dev/parport0 This will provide the correct URI but if it reports no device found, maybe there's a connection problem. ------------------- Andrew Malcolmson -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
