Do you have cupsys-client/cupsys-bsd installed in the chroot?  If not
that might explain why a program in the chroot can't find the printers
(since the client programs just access it through the port 631 interface
to the printer server running in 64bit mode and pass it data.)

I would like my printer to work with openoffice.org.

This printer (hp deskjet 3745) use the driver hplip wich is intalled 
succesfully on my sarge distro. I can have the program spadmin in the 
chroot (to add new printer in openoffice) but the printer isn't listed 
in. I can't print in a file (like a PDF): file isn't created. I don't 
know how to do, exept by changing the format of document and save the 
file (this works), and then read it by another program (like abiword) to 
print it. This isn't convenient.
   



I just setup cupsys and then everything (including openoffice) prints
just fine through that.

There is nothing special about openoffice and printing in my experience.

Hi,

I know... i have no luck ! did you remember when i had this problem with 
sound and the kernel provided by debian ? Then i feel something...


I've tried several combinaisons of command for oo.o ; no one worked (but 
i found one wich works with gimp : i can now print image with gimp ! i'm 
happy !)


Well, using the ppd file for the hp deskjet 3740 (wich is almost the 
same as 3745) i can now print in a file and get a .ps file , and i can 
print this file ! oo.org is now usable for me even if i need a third 
part program to print (the ps viewer...).


Did i mention i have cups installed and working fine with the hplip 
driver on the pure64 part ? I guess not... sorry for that lack of 
informations.


I'll look forward to put oo.o and cups works together, but for now let's 
back to production world !
