Re: Printer Setup Problem
Did the same command work with the Debian PC? Nonetheless have you choose the right driver? 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
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.

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! -- John Foster -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
Printer Setup Problem
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.

Jumping on the printer setup problem bandwagon
Background info: Using potato installed: lprng installed: apsfilter Apsfilter seems to have successfully set up my printer. I assume this as it successfully printed the test sheet. When I try to print any file from bash (i.e., cat printcap > /dev/lp0), however, paper just runs through the printer with nothing printed. Any ideas? Curtis

USB Printer Setup Problem
I have an Epson StylusColor 860 which I wish to use on a usb port. I compiled my 2.2.19 kernel with usb support, usb file support and usb printer. cat /proc/bus/usb/devices is emplty, cat /proc/bus/usb/drivers shows: hub usbdevfs 0- 15: usblp I have checked BIOS (and that other operating? system accesses the printer with no difficulty). One reference lists a long series of codes to be sent by uniprint to wake up the printer in usb mode but apt-get doesn't know about uniprint. Is there a good stable solution to this problem?

Printer setup problem in potato
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

printer setup problem
Hi: I configured my printer setting with printtool, however, when I try to print only thing I get is 'No spool file found' printed on the paper. The entry in printcap is identical to the one in my redhat which is working. I suspected ther is lp.lock file in /var/spool/lpd/lp directory. Would that be the problem? Seung-woo Nam
