Bug#402909: Additional information to hplip



Hello!

In my opinion the system should work this way:

hplip is the backend to the printer. the driver ppd is stored in hpijs and the 
connection is through foomatic. 

1.) it is necessary to add a dep to foomatic-db-hpijs in the hpijs package 
too. foomatic won't work in my case.

2.) I had trouble with foomatic-filters package. I had to completely reinstall 
this package. Helps a little bit

3.) You have to do as normal user in X-term a "sudo hp-setup" to get the 
hp-fax queue because the queue is created within this step.

4.) printing to the fax should result in opening hp-sendfax dialog to add a 
recipient and fax-cover (This step is in my case NOT working). My opinion: 
foomatic-rip should forward the job to the queue and invoke hp-sendfax.

I'm getting a time-out, see log.

error: Timeout waiting for rendering. Canceling job #527...
error: Error, aborting.


Cheers and Happy New Year!

Wolfgang
