Question about support for HP D1560 printer under FreeBSD

2009-04-10 Thread Manish Jain


Hi,

I am about to buy a new printer (my first one actually) and my retailer 
strongly recommends HP's D1560 printer (USB). I am running 
ghostscript8-8.62_5 under FreeBSD 7.1 and I can't see this model listed 
anywhere in apsfilter. So I just want to confirm whether I could get 
this  printer to run on my system ?

According to the http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/index.html site, your 
printer is supported. Install the '/print/hplip' port. Be sure to read the 
documentation on configuring the program.

I have hplip and cups installed on my system to support two HP wireless 
printers, and it works fine.

And God said, Let there be light. But then the program crashed because he was 
trying to access the 'light' property of a NULL universe pointer.

   Hi Jerry,
   Thanks for your message. I checked up the list, which says that the
   D1560 is indeed supported, but it also says that the minimum version
   of hplip required for this is 2.8.5, while the latest port available
   is 2.8.2.
   Please check
   out [2]http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/models/deskjet/deskjet_d15
   00_series.html for this.

Contact the port maintainer: amis...@am-productions.biz and explain
your problem to him. He should be able to update the port so it works
for you. I have spoken to him before and he solved a problem I was
having rather quickly.
