Product: Installation Component: Installation Summary: USB printer installation without USB-connection (RC1) Version: 1.791 Platform: PC OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I tried to install a printer on my Sony Vaio FX301 but had to find out that I could not select an USB port without having the printer connected. When I made the installation the printer was out of reach for me, so I tried to force it, but after having done all the configuration I simply got an failure message that the printer could not be installed. Error messages (first one is obvious) 1) Starten des Druckdienstes CUPS: ptal-mlcd: ERROR at ExMgr.cpp:2485, dev=<mlc:usb:0@/dev/usb/lp9>, pid=10543, e=19 Couldn't find device: exhausted all possible device nodes! 2) * running: foomatic-configure -q -s cups -n lp -c ptal:/mlc:usb:0 -p 131424 -d hpijs -N HP Photosmart P1000 -L -o PageSize=A4 -o PageRegion=Letter -o PrintoutMode=High -o Duplex=None -o Resolution=1200PhotoCMYK with root /mnt lpadmin: add-printer (set device) failed: client-error-not-possible Could not set up/change the queue "lp"! Did I miss something obvious ? Reinhard ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
