Re: HP Printer OfficeJet_Pro_6970 is not working under PureOS (Debian 11)



Dear Brian,

I tried the commands now on my Debian 11 installation on the external drive.
Unfortunately increasing the timeout didn't change anything. ippfind still gives nothing.
So I also could not set up a print queue and trying to print with the lp command.

The printer is found, but ipp can't communicate with it.

I'm sorry.

Cheers,
Florian

Good. Printing is printing, even though I feel the way to go is with
ipp-usb. Thanks for your patience.

Perhaps you have 5 or 10 minutes to spend on the following?

You have a printer that understands IPP-over-USB and the ipp-usb service
is acive. Ok up to there. The driverless command uses ippfind and it is
that command that seems to be misbehaving. Does increasing the timeout
make any difference?

  ippfind -T 20

We can also deuce what ippfind should give us. In my situation 'hostname'
outputs "cups1". ippfind shows

  ipp://cups1.local:60000/ipp/print

I can now manually set up a print queue

  lpadmin -p testq -v ipp://cups1.local:60000/ipp/print -E -m everywhere

and print with

  lp -d testq /etc/nsswitch.conf

Would you try this with the Debian installation, using your hostname, of
course?

TIA,

Brian.
