I have cups, hplip, xsane, and sane-backends installed on my gentoo
system to which I have attached two hp devices
Laserjet 1200 via USB
Officejet 7310 via wired ethernet at 192.168.1 50
I used hp-setup for the laserjet with success. At the end of
hp-setup an hp test page was printed and after restarting cups a cups
test page was printed. However, right at the beginning of hp-setup
a session management error was reported (see below).
I had previously installed the 7310 via the cups interface. Printing
was successful but scanning with xsane was not. Perusing the net
suggests that it is important to install via hp-setup. The following
occurred.
1. The same session management error occurred as before specifically
Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason :
None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and
host-based authentication failed.
2. The wizard popped up and I selected "Network/..."
3. The 7310 was found with the correct IP address.
4. A "random" ppd file was suggested so I changed it to
HP-OfficeJet_7300-hpijs.ppd.gz in /usr/share/ppd/HP/
5. An error occurred:
A. A popup asserted Unable to communicate with the
device. Please check the device and try again.
B. The gnome-terminal on which I ran hp-setup displayed
error: Unable to communicate with device:
hpfax:/net/Officejet_7300_series?ip=192.168.1.50
error: Unable to communicate with the device.
Please check the device and try again.
6. I hit cancel on the popup, filled in the printer info on the next
screen and unchecked "setup PC send fax". (I would like to have
the PC send fax, but since the fax device had problems above I
though it wise to try the printer without the fax).
7. After pressing finish (with send test page selected) I received an
error "Unable to print to printer. Please check device and try
again."
I am guessing that the session management error is not important
(since the laserjet worked) but that the unable to communicate with
device error is important.
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks,
allan
