Trying to figure out why my printer stopped working. I thought it might be a usb problem, but when I moved it to another machine and reinstalled, I have the same problem. I can configure the printer and queue up jobs. I see cups starting gs, but nothing going to the printer. I've installed the latest packages from hp. Used to work.

I have a Canon Pixma iP4000. It worked in 11.1, and worked until recently in 11.2. But now it does not work. When I try to print anything with it I get the error:
"Unable to find Gutenprint driver named "Canon PIXMA iP4000"!"
I have tried deleting the printer and setting it up several times in both the YaST printer module and http://localhost:631/. Nothing changes. I am using the driver it suggests and the driver definitely exists. I have tried reinstalling all of my cups and gutenprint-related software as well. I am using an up-to-date x86-64 system.
I bought my HP P1102w printer specifically because it works in Linux, and it did in Fedora 14 after installing the hplip from HP, not the repository.
After upgrading to F15, the printer was no longer there. /var/log/messages saw the printer, but claimed "io/hpmud/model.c 625: unable to find [hp_laserjet_professional_p1102w] support-type in /usr/share/hplip/data/models/models.dat", which is strange because I found that exact line in that file.
Anyway, I downloaded hplip from [URL] and installed it.
Plugging in the USB cable now looks good:
Code:
Jul 16 17:33:31 goldfinch kernel: [ 7410.596258] usb 1-5.3.2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 9
Jul 16 17:33:31 goldfinch kernel: [ 7410.681937] usb 1-5.3.2: New USB device found, idVendor=03f0, idProduct=032a

[Code]...
I then tried system-config-printer and it detected the printer on the wireless network. (I really needed to print something, so I had set it up in a Windows XP virtual machine.) So now I have the printer displayed as a network printer, but it still can't print anything. The test page diagnostics spits out the attached debug log. The only thing that stands out to me is the error claiming that my HP printer isn't an HP.
My printer no longer prints anything with exception to the TestPrint page.Any other job I give it, it says is "completed" in the queue, though nothing has printed. Installed cups again, after a complete removal. No change. Heres what troubleshooting gave me:
Code:
D [06/Mar/2010:07:26:01 -0500] cupsdSetBusyState: Dirty files

It says the print job stopped. It only printed 1/4 of 1/4 of what I needed to print. It has the correct print settings, etc... but I can't print?! Please help. It was able to print the test page before, but now even that won't print. Even CUPS is having problems connecting to the server. Printing in Windows has the same problem.
View 14 Replies View RelatedMy elderly HP Laserjet 4P has worked well for over 15 years. I have it connected to the home network via a Trendnet TE100-P21 Print Server, and setup has always been straightforward and easy. The whole setup has worked quite well with Fedora 9 or 10 thru 14, but then stopped working within the last couple of weeks. I'm assuming an update broke something, as I can find no other reason. When I send a print job or test page, I get a Print Error dialog. The print que shows a "stopped" status for the job. In the Error dialog I use the Diagnose button and step through until I get the Status Messages dialog, which informs me: "The printer's state message is: 'Data file sent successfully'".
Then I enable debugging and send a test page. Stepping through the dialogs it tells me it cannot detect a problem, and gives me an error log, which I've attached. The Trendnet server has a web admin interface. In that interface I can send a test page successfully. Also, I can open a VirtualBox (Windows XP) in Fedora 14, and successfully print from it. My print setup in Fedora is the same as it has been for several years now, and nothing has changed on that end. I have rebooted Fedora and the Trendnet server. All other computers/OS's on the network have no problem printing, only this Fedora 14, and only recently.
I am running Fedora 15 but about 1 week ago my Hp laserjet 1220 all-in-one printer stopped functioning. The OS recognizes the HP printer, but I cannot print any print job whatsoever. I have looked through the faq section and found no resolution for my conflict or problem. I have used Fedora on this system since Fedora 8.

What to do? Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
When originally installing 11.04 I had problems getting my Ralink 5390 wireless card to work.
Today my computer froze completely and I had to turn it off via the power switch. When I turned it back on, wireless was no longer recognized! My iPod can connect to the network just fine, so it must be an Ubuntu problem. There are no problems with my ethernet connection either.
I researched this and found several threads about blocking and unblocking wireless devices using the rfkill command. Well, unfortunately for me the rfkill command doesn't work. When I type sudo rfkill list or sudo rfkill unblock all, nothing happens; it just returns me to my bash prompt. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling rfkill...nothing.
What is this 'apt' for PCLinuxOS on DistroWatch where version should be?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have not been able to print from my PCLinux box through my Windows machine (printer connected and working on that machine).
There are shared files on the Windows machine that can be seen with PCLinuxOS and accessed. PCLinuxOS can supposedly see the printer, but will not print a test page.
Has anyone experience of using a Conextant video card on PCLos ?I have a V-stream DV/AV Expert video capture card (not tv, only for vcr) based on the Conextant CX2388x chip which I have used successfully in Win XP to capture videos from the vcr, followed by converting and burning to them dvd with Ulead Video Studio 9.I would like to be able to do this in PCLos, removing yet another Win dependancy.To start with, I used tvtime to see if I could actually receive a signal from this card. A signal is received using Video source of Composite2, but there is no sound. The external audio cable is connected from the card to the sound card.
lspci | grep -i cx238 shows
03:08.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio Decoder (rev 05)
dmesg | grep -i cx238 shows
cx88/0: cx2388x v4l2 driver version 0.0.7 loaded
If I do manage to receive a video and sound signal from the card, could anyone advise me of capture and conversion software to transfer the video to dvd ?I have tried Cinelerra, Kino and LiVES, but as far as I can see, (please correct me if I am wrong) these apps will only capture or load digital video.None of the apps pick up the V-stream analog capture card.
I use PCLinuxOS. I want to install mklivecd. I can't double-click mklivecd.rpm to install its dependencies. rpm -ivh mklivecd.rpm shows me a list of dependencies that have to be installed manually. What now?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIf there has been one consistent, recurring problem over the years it has been printing. I went to print a document, but it never made it to the printer. I looked at the HP device manager and the file was in the queue, but with the notation that the printer had been "stopped." I checked the setup up with localhost:631 and everything appears to be correct. User name is in the lp group. I then removed the current CUPS package and installed the one from Slackware64-13.
Doing that solved an earlier problem with one of the newer version of CUPS. This time the document made it to the printer, but each line overlapped itself and the whole thing fit into the space of about 6 lines. Just for chuckles I saved a copy of the document to the windows partition, booted over to XP, fired up OpenOffice for windows and the same document printed out perfectly.
Installed F12 a while back. Everything was working fine. Then I wanted to install perl-cpan, so when I run "yum install perl-cpan", or "yum update", it hangs on "Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit".
I've let it hang there for hours, nothing ever happens.
For the first week or so, Yum worked fine, I could manually update as I've done on other Fedora versions without any issue.
In the Gnome gui I have automatic updating disabled. As far as I can tell, yum-updatesd isn't running and isn't enabled. I wanted to update things manually for a while until I got this new box "settled in".
I know I can install cpan via other methods, but this strange behavior with Yum has me worried.
I ran all the "yum clean" commands, and now yum actually displays errors:
Trying other mirror.
I get these errors over and over.
I read up on how to edit the /etc/yum/fedora.repo and fedora-update.repo files to fix this, BUT, I have no such files...
This is what I have:
The other interesting thing is that my /var/log/yum.log is 0 bytes.
Yet the yum.log-20100101 is 209709 bytes and shows all the updates I did just a month ago...
Where can I download the repo files from? How can I fix the repository?
When I try "yum repolist" I get the same errors.
I am new to Opensuse, I used Fedora for more than a year and installed OS 11.4 64bit to experience the awesome KDE that Opensuse offers. I added KDE 4.6 Stable: Index of /repositories/KDE:/Release:/46/openSUSE_11.4/x86_64 It worked fine since the install(I installed 11.4 this Saturday), suddenly yesterday I don't remember what I did, KDE stopped working. What happens is I login using kdm, then all the stuff loads up but when I try to open anything the whole KDE freezes. If I clicked the launcher on bottom bar it opens only at the beginning, then if I press anything inside the launcher things freeze. Then even the launcher freezes too.I rememeber doing 2 things I did before restart:1) I did sudo zypper dup2) I changed my theme to Qtcurve gtk look. I thought the problem might be because of the QTCurve theme and even uninstalled using alt+f2 command line restarted, no change

First I tried to install skype-2.1.0.47-fc10.i586.rpm but it did not work, always ending in "Aborted (core dumped)".Then I found an entry in some forum and tried to use skype-2.1.0.47-fc9.i586. rpm, and it worked! I could make calls, the microphone was recognized and everything worked as it should be.
Until today. For reasons beyond my scope skype stopped working, and after I have looged in with my skype-name I got the above Aborted-message again. Even after the reboot of my Dell Laptop skype refused to work.I even installed all the recommended yum packages I found in this skype forum topic.Can anyone please advise me how to properly install a stable version of skype with Fedora 12? I searched the Fedora forums but did not use any useful entry.
I've seen a couple of threads about recent issues with skype, but nothing like this. Since today my mic is not working in skype (it does work otherwise, for exmaple in sound recorder). I'm using F11 x64. Yesterday I upgraded to the last skype version, and today the mic wasn't working. I downgraded now, thinking that was the problem, but still the same issue, so maybe some update did this (I'm not sure if alsa or pulseaudio got any update yesterday or today).
