[Bug 35638] Re: Printer is not detected properly over USB
Yes.. same kernel on other laptop with xubuntu. I checked uname-r on xubuntu-laptop: Linux edwin-laptop 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Sun Oct 14 23:05:12 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux it's the same... And cups versions are also the same. But i have to mention that a few days ago I was able to print a few things with the Ubuntu laptop. I don't know I had done it. But at a sudden it worked. Until reboot (i think). And I could not reproduce it. I have tried a LOT.. On the Xubuntu laptop is works good. Also after reboot. It's also possible to share the mfc7420 on the xubuntu laptop and than print on the ubuntu laptop using the shared printer on the other laptop... What config-files do I have to remove to make the CUPS inststall as if ubuntu was freshly installed ?

[Bug 35638] Re: Printer is not detected properly over USB
Stanley, I have no parallel interface on my laptop. So that's not possible. I have to use the brother printer next week on a conference. Perhaps buying an usb-printer-server is an option.. But it's a little crazy that i should think of such a work-around, because the printer works ok with an other laptop with xubuntu gutsy. Is there no other work-around? -- Printer is not detected properly over USB https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/35638 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 35638] Re: Printer is not detected properly over USB
I have similar problem: OS: Ubuntu Gutsy Printer: Brother MFC-7420 uname -a: Linux edwin-7700 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Sun Oct 14 23:05:12 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux cupsys-common/client/cupsys/libcupsimage2/libcupsys2: 1.3.2-1ubuntu7.1 hal-cups-utils: 0.6.13+svn83-0ubuntu1 I installed the latest mfc7420 brmfc lpr driver AND the mfc7420 cupswrapper from the brother website When I plug in the printer (USB) i get this lpinfo -v output: network socket network beh direct hal:///org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device___noserial_0_printer_noserial network http network ipp network lpd direct scsi network smb I think there should be a 'direct usb:...' too. But it's not there. So. when I set up the printer in CUPS (or when it's autodetected) i can not choose for 'Brother at USB#1' or something. On an other laptop running Xubuntu, the printer works fine! lpinfo -v gives both a 'direct hal' line as a 'direct usb' line for the printer. Is this a bug? I tried the sysfsutils workaround.. but no result Also tried the cups packages with other usb backend (I unloaded usblp). But also no result. What can I try?
