Hi, I didn't manage to print anything on a HP printer, an all-in-one OfficeJet Series R (R45). I has only installed CUPS without Cups-o-Matic, and tried (through SSH, I don't have physical access) : $ sudo lpadmin -d OfficeR -v parallel:/dev/lp0 -m deskjet.ppd lpadmin: set-default failed: client-error-not-found $ sudo lpadmin -p OfficeR -v parallel:/dev/lp0 -m deskjet.ppd lpadmin: add-printer failed: client-error-not-possible $ sudo apt-get install cupsomatic $ sudo lpadmin -d OfficeR -v parallel:/dev/lp0 -m deskjet.ppd And it seemed to work, no error, but it didn't print. I changed the model : $ sudo lpadmin -p OfficeR -m OfficeJet_R45-deskjet.ppd And after visiting localhost:631 with lynx, I found the device was in fact "test:/dev/null"... $ sudo lpadmin -p OfficeR -v parallel:/dev/lp0 lpadmin: add-printer failed: client-error-not-possible $ sudo lsmod | grep parport parport_pc 13956 0 parport 24608 0 [parport_pc] I'm using a 2.4.19 kernel... Do you see what is the problem ?? Confusingly, le Moine Fou -- mailto:pierre.thierry@moine-fou.org OpenPGP 0xD9D50D8A
