Printing problem with CUPS && LPD
Hey, I have a HP LaserJet 1010 and I was trying to get it working with FreeBSD, so I installed CUPS and configured it to recoginize the printer and it does, I can successfully print a testpage using the webinterface. So I was trying to print a file from commandline with lpr, but there is something weird. This is the ouput of lpstat: [EMAIL PROTECTED] lpstat -p -v -d printer HP1010 is idle. enabled since Jan 01 00:00 CUPS v1.1.23 is ready to print. device for HP1010: usb:/dev/ulpt0 system default destination: HP1010 but when I try printing a file using the command: [EMAIL PROTECTED] lpr -PHP1010 /etc/motd this shows up at my dmesg : Nov 12 12:05:16 Print lpd[1905]: /dev/lp: No such file or directory LPD is trying to print to /dev/lp instead of /dev/ulpt0, but I don't know how to fix it. I tried symlinking /dev/lp to /dev/ulpt0 but that wouldn't do the trick. I hope someone has an idea of what I'm doing wrong?

This was actually installed with patches to hpijs from this PR: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/54156 I wonder why it wasn't committed since July. You need to install the foomatic-db port.. But you can download foomatic-rip from www.linuxprinting.org and yes it is just a perl script to configure options to control printer driver options and filters. For Epson printers.. gimp-print already gives you the best results and it's already configured automatically by the port install of gimp-print if you already have cups. For hpijs though, it isn't. -- "Optimized, readable, on time; Pick any two."

Meaning that cups has it's own lpr, but since /usr/bin is ahead of /usr/local/bin.. the system lpr will be run (which doesn't call the cups scheduler). You should not need to edit the /etc/printcap file either, you should edit your printer settings from the cups web admin. The steps I did to get cups working well with my HP PSC 2110 are: 1. install cups, foomatic-rip, hpijs from ports 2. download foomatic ppd for your printer from www.linuxprinting.org 3. put this in /usr/local/share/cups/model 4. make symbolic link for foomatic-rip to /usr/local/libexec/cups/filter #ln -s /usr/local/bin/foomatic-rip \ /usr/local/libexec/cups/filter/foomatic-rip 5. cd /usr/bin and mv lp utils lpr, lpq etc. as lpr.bak or whatever you like. 6. restart cupsd 7. setup your printer with cups (eg black and white, quality etc.) 8. Ok set to go (hopefully) :) There is a PR patch around I think which automates this for hpijs port, but it wasn't committed and doesn't apply cleanly anymore. -- "Optimized, readable, on time; Pick any two."

Problem with cups
Hi, I'm trying to install a HP deskjet 930c printer. I'm running FreeBSD 4.8, with cups 1.1.19 and hpijs 1.4.1. With cups, i have added my printer, and printed a test page. When i print wit lpr, it don't work. # lpstat -p printer dj930 is idle. When i looked in /var/log/lpd-errs, I see there are errors: lpd[364]: /dev/lp: No such file or directory I've edit /etc/printcap, so i can print black/white. How can I use cups without errors? -- Greetz, Pieter http://pieter.hustinx.org ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
