I'm catching up to this one late, and am being thrown off by the very start.
I have a DeskJet 960C I am pretty sure it's hooked up right as it was running under RedHat (meaning I have PnP turned off in the BIOS) and during one point in playing around tonight I saw that something knew the printer was there.(don't ask, I've been trying to find it again and can't). I have installed the foomatic.bin and foomatic.db and cupsys and it's depends and have generated and saved in /usr/share/cups/model/HP-DeskJet`.ppd But when I type lpadmin in the terminal I get unknown command and when I use the web interface I am thrown by the first three questions (I think I understand what follows!): Name: what name? Is that just an I make it up name? DeskJet 960C? The Help file says the helpful wizzard will walk you through this and you just answer a few obvious questions! Not obvious to me. Locatin: what location? and if this is the /dev/lp or lp0 or lp1 can I just go and assign that? Description I can guess is nothing important. Thanks for any help and sorry if this was already covered. I would like to get a printer hooked up to the rig. Best Wishes!
