Do you know about a driver for Windows Dell AIO A920 Printer in Ubuntu 9.10? I have problems to print through my Linux. The printer is shared by a PC with Windows XP...
View 1 RepliesI just upgrade to Fedora 11.
I have problem in installing the printer, no matter add printer in local network or Windows Printer via Samba.
The summary is as follow:
I have download a printer driver and had installed but got error when I tried to printer a test page.
I have a Windows XP box with an HP5610 connected to a USB port. I have a Dell notebook computer loaded with Ubuntu 9.10. I have the two networked via a wireless connection and can share folders/files between the two with no problem. Unfortunately, I cannot share the Windows printer with the Ubuntu box. I can go through the printer setup with Samba on the notebook and the HP is detected however, whenever I go to verify I get an invalid argument error.
In reading one of the posts it suggested pinging the ubuntu box from the Windows box. Since I already have viable file sharing connection does that come in play at all?
I have a Brother HL-2140 connected to a Linux box (Ubuntu 10.04 LTS) that I want to share on a Windows 7 home network (wireless). I followed all the configuration instructions as given on Ubuntu Documentation: Network Printing from WindowsXP. From the Windows 7 box I am able to see the printer in a webpage (using the URL). But when I use the same url in the Add Printer Wizard the system says that it couldn't find the printer.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've installed Ubuntu 11.04 in dual boot with Windows XP on my computer at work. I have a printer (HP LaserJet 3020) and I've shared it with all my coworkers, and everything's working like a charm. When a coworker wants to print here, first he has to select my shared printer on his computer and then print it. Cool! The point is... On his computer there are two network printers pointing to my PC: one for Windows and another one for Ubuntu. Now, here's the problem. Sometimes I'm logged in Windows, sometimes in Ubuntu, here. But my coworkers don't know when I'm in Windows or Ubuntu. So, if they select my Windows shared printer and I'm logged in Ubuntu, it doesn't work.
So, I'd like to know if there is a way to share my printer on Ubuntu as if it were Windows, I mean, I don't know if it's possible - that's what I want to know - but I thought maybe there could be a way to use a "single network printer link" on my coworkers' computers (instead of two distinct ones for each OS I use), so that they would select it and send their printing job to my printer, independently on which OS I'm using at the moment.
Summarizing... A coworker chooses my shared printer on his computer and send the job. Then it would be printed here anyway. It doesn't matter if I'm logged in Windows or Ubuntu.Is that possible? If so, how?
When I was on Windows I used to be able to connect my laptop to a printer that was plugged into the computer downstairs via the wireless network. This network is still in place, only now I am using ubuntu I haven't got a clue as to how I connect to this network,or if it is even possible at all! how I would go about printing over the network when the other computers on the network are all windows machines.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have shared my cpl-300 from my windows 7 machine to my network, so that may print from my linux laptop to it.
Now whenever I go to system -> Administration -> Printing and try and browse for my printer it asks for a username and password any username or password I enter that is on the windows 7 machine gets rejected.
So I tested to see what would happen if you used smbclient to view the shares available from the windows 7 machine, unfortunately it results in another permission error. The funny thing is I can mount a share using "mount -t cifs".
Does anybody know if there is a driver for the dell 946 printer?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed it on a desktop today to try it out. So far I'm loving it and have gotten everything to work except for one thing:
There's a printer connected to it (HP PSC 1600), and I'd like the other computers on the network to be able to print to that computer. The other computers are running Windows 7, and one is running Snow Leopard.
When I plugged in the printer, Ubuntu recognized it almost immediately and installed it. Wonderful! I then went ahead and set it to be Shared, and hoped for the best. Neither the Windows machine or the OS X machine could find the printer...even after I pointed them directly at what I thought was the CUPS address (\mycomputername:631). To make matters even more confusing, I was able to set up shared folders and have the other computers be able to view them.
I am having some trouble getting one PC (Windows XP) to see the printer attached to the other PC (Ubuntu). I went to System > Administration > Printing in Ubuntu and did the following: Checked the box next to "Publish shared printers connected to this system" Checked "Enabled", "Accepting jobs", and "Shared" in the properties of the printer. I have an HP Deskjet 5650. Is there anything else I need to be doing?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am a new convert to Fedora with very little knowledge of Linux in general. I have managed to install Fedora 11 on my Advent 8315 laptop and I have wireless connection via my Belkin Wireless N modem router. I have always been able to setup Windows networking successfully but Fedora is much more complex, using terminology that I am not familiar with. What I need to do to achieve networking with my Windows computer? I especially want to network to my Canon printer which is connected to the Windows PC.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a windows machine on my lan with a printer attached. I have samba running on my F11 laptop and I can use it to access shared files on the windows machine. But how can I use the printer from fedora? When I go to Administor>Printers then I just get an empty list, even after pressing 'rescan'. Do I have to change some firewall/samba configuration? If not then where else would I see the printer?

View 12 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install a network printer to my Gentoo workstation, but have never used printing in Linux before and am unsure of how to proceed. I'm stuck in the CUPS web interface based printer adding process, at what device and device URI to set. I have looked through the properties and settings of the printer on the server machine, but couldn't find anything relevant.The printer model is Brother HL-1430, and it's attached with USB to the Windows XP powered printer server and shared to the network. Other (Windows) machines in the network can successfully reach the printer.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm giving up in ever hoping that I'll get printing working with windows 7 with the strange comments I've found on the net. Basically I have a samsung ML2240 printer shared on the network, everything can print to it fine except for my windows 7 laptop. It's shared via Samba.

Once you have extracted the driver files, copy the 32-bit drivers to the /usr/share/cups/drivers directory and the 64-bit drivers to the /usr/share/cups/drivers/x64 directory exactly as named below:
[Windows 2000 and higher]
ps5ui.dll
pscript.hlp
pscript.ntf
pscript5.dll
However after checking this, I dont have the files named within int he correct folder on my windows system :
%WINDIR%SYSTEM32SPOOLDRIVERSX643 folder for 64-bit drivers.I've tried installing the printer via the windows installer, however this adds the driver then tells me its not working and fails to print. I really dont know where to turn with this one. I've tried installing the samsung supplied drivers from the website. However they still fail to connect.
Printer directly connected with opensuse 11.2. we cant able to add printer in windows xp if wee add the system says the following error:
Function address 0x2c7d5e4 caused a protection fault. (exception code 0x0000005) The application property sheet page(s) may not function properly. And the system says acces denied unable to connect and the windows system hanging and says error report.
I have a Centos 5.3 server with Samba file shares and a shared Samba printer. I am not running a domain.
I recently changed my windows desktop pc from an XP machine to a vista 64 machine... It has a different user name. Everything went pretty smoothly - and the and the vista machine found the smba printer - and even downloaded the driver from the samba server. he printer works OK - and the file shares are fine.
The only thing which is quite odd - is that the Printer Properties dialogue takes more than 30 seconds to come up - and every action you attempt with the dialogue takes a similar amount of time.
I will include below the essence of my smb.conf:
I have Dell 1545 pre-loaded with Ubuntu 9.04. It has Oracle VM VirtualBox installed, for which I run Ubuntu 10.04. I have downloaded drivers for Ubuntu 10.04 to interface with Lexmark X6650, and can easily print documents from Ubuntu 10.04. However, I cannot figure out how to access the scan function.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a virtual Linux box with a static IP in the cloud.
I have remote sites that have networked PCs that normally act as terminals but also have more than one printer on the Windows Network.
I would like software on the Window's machine to access the known IP address of the server and advertise the printers on the network so they can be printed to with lpr or cups. I don't have a problem manually setting up the printers on Centos if that is necessary. (But I need to know how to do that as well).
I need to know if I can setup a VPN on Windows without it stopping regular internet traffic and how to do it.
I need to know all the steps (what to install, what to issue commands for) to make this happen without using a GUI if possible and if the GUI is easier I need to know which GUI to install.
I also do not have a problem with using a VPN router at the client side if that makes it any easier. Like a Cisco RV120W.
Just purchased new del 1320cn printer and unfortunatly ubuntu doesn't see it. I tried the Foomatic system as well, which does see the printer and identifies it but does not show the model number in the list.
Any help would be really good. My other Del 1110 mono laser worked first time!
If any terminal commands reqd, please could you be kind enough to list them as I get confused using terminal.
distro: ubuntu 9.10
Printer: Del 1320cn Colour Laser Printer
I was curious as to if there was a way to install a 32bit driver on a 64bit system. I have a dell v515w printer and the only driver they provide for it is a 32bit driver. I was wandering if anyone may know of a way to install it or if anyone knows of any other available drivers. I have searched everywhere for i dont know how long and came up with nothing i have tried installing the 32bit libraries and it didnt help.. and going back a 32bit system is out of the question due to ubuntu not wanting to load.. i think it has something to due with my hard drive being to large... but im using ubuntu 10.10 maverick 64bit...

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have found that there are certain things on the web that I need to print, that simply refuse to work under linux. I have a samba printer server on one of my Slackware boxes and an M$ XP vm under Vbox that can access the server and see the printer. The only problem that I have is that it expects to download a driver from the server which isn't available and the HP driver installer won't install if it doesn't detect the printer. Short of relocating the printer to install the driver, does anyone know how to get the driver installed on the XP host? This is so much easier with my Slack boxes and CUPS!
