Hello!
I have a problem with my printer HP DeskJet 970Cxi attached to my router
Asus Wl-500G Premium(by usb). Generally the printer works (prints well when
it is on etc) but it should turn on automaticly when a printer job comes in
but it doesn't. Is there a way to fix it (make the printer turn on by
itself)?. I add the printer with the add printer dialog, choose network
printer -> hp jetDirect, write my router ip(192.168.1.1), port 9100 and
use the driver hpijs. I've tried to install the driver hplip but it doesn't
find my printer at all.
When I run "sudo hp-setup" the wizard shows up and I choose
Network/Ethernet/Wireless (direct connection or JetDirect).. click next and
a popup shows up "no devices found. Please make sure your printer is
properly connected and powered-on". It certainly is because on windows xp
everything works well. I've installed hplip according to this site:
http://hplip.sourceforge.net/install/install/index.html
Here's the output I get when run hp-setup in the console:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/cups$ sudo hp-setup

Done.
python: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/kde3/plugins/styles/highcolor.so:

I've also tried all of these suggestions but I just can't choose the hplip
driver.
>From the gnome printer add utlity I can choose from: hpijs, cdj550,
cdj970, Gunterprint CUPS, pcl3 but no hplip for my model. I've tried all of
those drives.. None offers "auto turn on".
Thanks for any help.
