What do you mean by "cups log"?

lpstat shows the status of cups. It says nothing about how the job
progressed through the filtering system.

The wiki explains how to get the smallest possible error_log. Obtain
one for each of the "old" and "new" machines using

  lp /etc/nsswitch

They will compress to a tenth of their sizes with gzip or xz. Post the
two compressed logs here.

It is possible that your printer can´t emulate the old Matrix Printers and so 
it can´t
Print Text directly the same goes for GDI Printers.
Hope that helps a little pointing out the Problem.

Printer Setup Problem

2017-06-12 Thread Thomas George
Two computers, an old pc with Debian Stretch and a new Raspberry Pi with 
the raspbian jessie operating system.


The old pc prints to a lan printer with no problem. The lpstat -t shows 
the identical set up on the Raspberry Pi but a command lp test.txt 
results in no printer output although the cups log shows the job as 
completed.


I have attached a script of the output of lpstat -t on the Raspberry Pi. 
The output of this command on the old pc is absolutely identical except 
for the dates and times.


Where should I look to fix this?

Printer Setup Problem

2009-04-03 Thread 김정환
Hi, everyone

I'm trying to setup a printer in network environment.
My printer is HP Laserjet 3015 PCL6.

In MS Windows, the printer is set up as follows :
Port : DOT4_001
Generic IEEE 1284.4 Printing Support
HP Laserjet 3015 PCL6

In debian, when I try to install network printer,
it requires URL, but I don't know it.

Please give me an information how to install
my network printer.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
J.H.Kim

This will go faster if we know more about the software you are using to
connect to the printer. If the printer is a network printer connected
via a 'network printer hub you will need the IP address of the hub and
the port to which the printer is connected. if it is connected to a
windows network you may need to install samba to use it. If it is
connected 'directly to the computer that has debian installed, it is not
really a network printer. You will also need a printer software
interface. I strongly suggest cups as it may be managed adequately from
a web interface located at http://localhost:631 on most machines.
another very useful tool for managing all of this is webmin. Look into
it.
Hope this helps!

- From the cups manual, this has the keyword quota.

QuotaPeriod
Examples

Printer name

  QuotaPeriod 604800
/Printer

Description

The QuotaPeriod directive defines the value of the job-quota-period
attribute. Typical values are 86400 (1 day), 604800 (1 week), 2592000
(1 month), and 31536000 (1 year). It is set using the lpadmin(8)
command:

/usr/sbin/lpadmin -p printername -o job-quota-period=604800

This directive must appear inside a Printer or DefaultPrinter

When I looked at the CUPS log files earlier today, I did not have
debugging enabled, in the file /etc/cups/cupsd.conf. I changed the line
LogLevel warning to LogLevel debug as described in the site below,
and when I try to print there is much more information sent to the

How do I enable debugging? 
1. Edit the file /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
2. Change the line LogLevel to debug.
3. Restart cupsd.  killall -HUP cupsd

Printer setup problem in Etch

2007-03-11 Thread Bob C
I am having a difficult time getting my printer to work on Etch with
CUPS 1.2.7. When I print a page from Openoffice the printer responds,
but prints a line of meaningless symbols. Another strange thing is that
When I try to print a test page from CUPS setup program at
http://localhost:631/, I just get a message Quota limit reached.

My printer is an HP Deskpro 500, and the computer has a Asus p5b main
board and Intel E6300 processor. 

The printer and wiring are fine, since I can print without problems on
the same computer when I boot into mandriva-2007, which I have also
installed on the harddrive. That distribution uses CUPS 1.2.4. and is
setup with HPDeskjet 500 Foomatic/pcl3 (recommended), on
parallel:/dev/lp0. 

These same settings do not work for me in Etch, nor do the other 3 types
of drivers I found in the CUPS setup program.

I'm working my way through this site, trying to identify the problem.
http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting

I am wondering if there is something obvious I am missing or doing wrong
here? I realize Etch is a testing version of Debian, so could there be
some sort of bug?

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the suggestion. I installed HPLIP and find that it doesn't

When I ran HPLIP, I got the message No Installed HP Devices Found.

When I tried to install my printer the program does not detect it.

Printer setup problem in potato

2000-11-14 Thread Ascenso Gian Piero
Hi,
I'm new to Linux and to Debian. I'm just switching from CorelLinux
to Debian 2.2, but I've got a problem with the installation dbootstrap
script. Everything goes well until I get to configuring and installing
device driver modules into the kernel. I can't configure the lp module.

The script asks me to write the module's parameters, but I've no idea
about what to write. It also warns me that if no parameters are given,
then all parports will be grabbed. I let the script to go on by just
hitting 'enter', but it fails giving me a message that either the device
is not there or the parameters are wrong.

Has anyone an idea about what I should write? In CorelLinux every device
was correctly detected and configured. If I've got to give IRQ and DMA
values, how should I determine them? Where should I look for?

Thanks in advance for helping.

Best wishes to all,

Gian Piero

Try loading parport and parport_pc before lp.  They should be a bit further
down the list, and they should not, including lp, strictly need to be given
options.

You should be able to give it no options -- just hitting enter works on my

These should be available for viewing in your BIOS setup.

ps.  Should a wishlist bug be filed against modprobe asking for it to detect
the special case of trying to load lp without parport loaded?
