Tested SysA on 2 old (~10 years) and two newer (3 to six year) 32 bit computers. Cups prop version worked without a hitch on the two newer 32 bit computers. Cups ppa version works on the two older 32 bit computers; prop version doesn't work. Cups prop version works sometimes on the 64 bit computer. Seems to me there could be an intermittently appearing quirk in using the 64 bit computer with 32 bit version of Ubuntu 11.10 for printing via usb-parallel cable. For info _ the Epson Stylus Color 880 ink jet(usb-usb cable) is identified, installed and works without a problem on the same system configuration (32 bit Ubuntu; 64 bit machine). nvsoar -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272 Title: USB->Parallel adapter produces crappy device URI and CUPS "usb" backend cannot cope with it To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/910272/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I am now looking at https://launchpad.net/~till-kamppeter/+archive/ppa/+packages In the section labeled "Package Files" I see about 40 files, some of which are .deb files.

System A - (w8-FJ463AAR-ABA-a6528p); installed on an external hard drive; running on an HP6600 machine; first to be involved, and the only system to have the cups ppa version installed prior to the proposed version. System B - (w8u-iomega); installed on a second external hard drive; also running on the same HP6600 machine as System A. System C - (w8-Aspire-5000; a laptop); installed on the internal hard drive along with XP and Linux Mint. Testing 19Jan2012 1. System B (cups proposed installed); requested info collected in file named "SysB_cups1.5.0-8ub7_prop.txt". 2. Attempted to revert System B to cups ppa version without success; documented in file 91072_SysB_Revert.txt. 3. System C (cups proposed installed); requested info collected in file named "SysC_cups1.5.0-8ub7_prop.txt". 4. Attempted to revert System C without to cups ppa version success; documented in file 91072_SysC_Revert.txt. 5. System A (cups ppa version) printing tested; printed successfully. Requested info collected in file named "SysA_cups1.5.0-8ub7_ppa.txt". Installed cups proposed version through Update Manager. Attempted to print test file without success. Requested info collected in file named "SysA_cups1.5.0-8ub7_prop.txt". 6. Some screen shots collect along the way are attached. Comment - If I can determine how to get the ppa version installed on Systems B and C I will collect and submit the requested data. These installations are not currently involved in critical operations so can tolerate some abuse by a mostly novice. ** Attachment added: "SysA_cups1.5.0-8ub7_ppa.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272/+attachment/2683576/+files/SysA_cups1.5.0-8ub7_ppa.txt ** Attachment added: "SysA_cups1.5.0-8ub7_prop.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272/+attachment/2683577/+files/SysA_cups1.5.0-8ub7_prop.txt ** Attachment added: "SysB_cups1.5.0-8ub7_prop.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272/+attachment/2683578/+files/SysB_cups1.5.0-8ub7_prop.txt ** Attachment added: "SysC_cups1.5.0-8ub7_prop.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272/+attachment/2683579/+files/SysC_cups1.5.0-8ub7_prop.txt ** Attachment added: "91072_SysB_Revert.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272/+attachment/2683580/+files/91072_SysB_Revert.txt ** Attachment added: "91072_SysC_Revert.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272/+attachment/2683581/+files/91072_SysC_Revert.txt ** Attachment added: "19Jan12SysA125155.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272/+attachment/2683582/+files/19Jan12SysA125155.png ** Attachment added: "19Jan12SysA151837.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272/+attachment/2683583/+files/19Jan12SysA151837.png ** Attachment added: "19Jan12SysA152725.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272/+attachment/2683584/+files/19Jan12SysA152725.png ** Attachment added: "19Jan12SysB113155.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272/+attachment/2683585/+files/19Jan12SysB113155.png ** Attachment added: "19Jan12SysC132142.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272/+attachment/2683586/+files/19Jan12SysC132142.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272 Title: USB->Parallel adapter produces crappy device URI and CUPS "usb" backend cannot cope with it To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/910272/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/l

Thank you in advance! > > ** Tags added: verification-needed > Using CUPS version 1.5.0-8Ubuntu7 (reported as installed by Synaptic) - Connection was not successful. Testing performed on two Ubuntu 11.10 installations without a printer configuration installed. Opened the printers window manually, after turning on the printer, and inserting the usb plug of the Belkin cable. The query "lsusb" reported the presence of the cable. Printer connection choices were "URI" or several types of Network connections; in one instance there was also an "LPT#1" choice. The "/Model" choice that worked (and still does), offered with the "ppa" CUPS version, did not exist. Entered the URI that resulted using the ppa CUPS version; result - the printer state on attempting to print a test page was "Processing - Waiting for printer to become available.";or something close to that. nvsoar 17Jan2012 ~0100GMT -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272 Title: USB->Parallel adapter produces crappy device URI and CUPS "usb" backend cannot cope with it To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/910272/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It took seven whole minutes to download and install; shorter than it took to print the test page. Manually opened printers window, selected "/Model" (default), next window selected the driver module, next Printer Properties settings looked correct and policies showed "enabled"; Print Test Page selected, Ubuntu test page printed successfully. Five gold stars! Images attached.
