I have a brand new HP Photosmart. I am using digiKam and try to make it print photos from the photo paper tray. But it only uses the normal tray. If I select the photo paper tray before printing manually from the try icon tool I get a message the paper was not ok "Papier unzulssig".additional info: I cannot make it print under gimp at all. I use Suse 11.2 64bit and hplip 3.9.8

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm interested to buy an usb print server for my HP C4480. Before spend money I prefer to be sure to choose the right device. My printer is HP Photosmart C4480 an it works perfectly with Opensuse (my version is 11.3).
I've seen on ebay a very cheap one, but it seems just mac/windows and compatibile. I need your advices and your experience to know which device could be suitable for my situation. I don't want to spend too much money, not interested in brands but just in something that works.
I got trouble to print a photo of 10x15 cm to HP Photopaper (which was delivered with the printer itself). I printed from the UI and set the size according to the papersize (both 10x15cm) and just hit print in "High Quality". The paper gets drawn in, but then the tiny LCD screen on the printer tells me - Wrong paper size, please insert a larger paper, I have to hit the Ok/Cancel button on the Printer but the effect is the same, the printer spits the empty photo paper in front of me.Does anyone have a tipp where to look at?
View 12 Replies View RelatedI'm starting to spec out a new GNU/Linux boxen. I'm considering the ASUS P6X58D Premium motherboard. Has anyone had any experience with this board in terms of compatibility with openSUSE 11.2/11.3? I'm mainly concerned about:
on-board sound: Realtek ALC889
ethernet: Marvell 88E8056
new interfaces: SATA3, USB3.0
being able to use: AHCI (which I had to turn off on a netbook, Acer Aspire 1410, for hard drive stability), 64-bit kernel I'm planning to use an i7-930 or i7-950 (should the price drop in August as rumored) with 6 GB DDR3 1333 RAM (not planning to overclock, as yet). The graphics card will probably be an NVidia GT240 or so (budgeting about $100 for the graphics card).
Also, I'm hoping to move some old IDE drives over using IDE->SATA 1 bridge cards. Any advice on this? Or should I just get a new SATA 3 drive? For the optical drives (DVD RW/CD RW), I'd like to use bridge cards since there's no benefit for the higher speed SATA interface, or is there?
P.S. For the naive question: As I haven't dealt with 64-bit installs before... I would need the 64-bit kernel for full access to all the extra address space, correct? After that, I can still run 32-bit apps, with a slight speed penalty?
I'm having some problems with my printer...i just installed suse (today) and tried to install the printer... i looked online and installed hplit, then followed the setup till the program recognizes my printer (he says is 4600, dunno why) and then ask me to associate the PDD file... only thing is that the pdd file is not there....
I runned the hp-check -t and this is the result:
Hp-check can be run in three modes:
1. Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling the HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the proper dependencies are installed to successfully compile HPLIP.
2. Run-time check mode (-r or --run): Use this mode to determine if a distro supplied package (.deb, .rpm, etc) or an already built HPLIP supplied tarball has the proper dependencies installedto successfully run.
3. Both compile- and run-time check mode (-b or --both) (Default): This mode will check both of the above cases (both compile- and run-time dependencies).
Saving output in log file: hp-check.log
Initializing. Please wait...
SYSTEM INFO:
To check for compile-time only dependencies, re-run hp-check with the -c parameter (ie, hp-check -c).
To check for run-time only dependencies, re-run hp-check with the -r parameter (ie, hp-check -r).
HPLIP INSTALLATION:
I am trying to install my new HP Photosmart b110 All-in-one printer on my notebook, but it seems to be very hard...I have Opensuse 11.0 x86-64. I tried to install hplip from the web, but neither the 3.10.9 nor the 3.10.6 version works. Automatic installation is a disaster: the driver tries to resolve dependencies, which are impossible to resolve, probably because - I realized - support to opensuse 11.0 was stopped. So I tried with custom installation, avoiding all those features leading to strage dependencies, but also in this case I get an error: "make failed with exit status 2", or something similar...
should I necessarily switch to 11.2 or 11.3 version? in this case, is it possible to upgrade directly from 11.0 to 11.3 without loosing data..?
I'm building up a server with a friend. I'm in charge of the hardware and my friend about software (linux distribution, etc). after searching through many models of motherboards I've found one candidate: Asus P6X58D Premium. Then, I realized that probably, there isn't any driver for that motherboard. So, I've browsed to [URL] then on the download tab and discovered there was: "DOS, Netware, Unixware, Windows 2000 to 7 x64 and others" but no Linux option
So, I've searched in other similar motherboards: for example P6T Deluxe. At the Linux option, the drivers were about audio issues....So, does really need a distribution x64 for server based on Debian, Ubuntu, etc, these drivers to work correctly on Asus P6X58D Premium?
Fedora 13 on Asus P5Q Premium, E7500 hangs after 10mins to 2 hour. After some trial and error, I found that the problem could be related to yum although it could be that it is only by running yum that I've been able to trace the problem. On runlevel 3 (to make sure it's not an X server problem), system hangs and prints the following message on the screen (copied it by hand, still have to figure out where to find it after system restart):

I have a hw RAID setup but the problem is the same, only the numbers are a bit different.
It is not a hw-related problem either because both the latest Suse and Kubuntu install without problems (although both seem to have problems in starting with RAID installed, normal disk is OK). Of course, I only have myself to blame because Asus says that this mb is compatible with FC8 - I haven't been able to test because my machine seems to have problems in booting from install DVD - but I suspect it is because that was the time this mb was launched and they haven't tried it on more recent Fedora distros.
Interestingly enough, the same problem comes with F12 and F11, didn't have energy to go further back. I've been using RedHat since ver 5.2. and would hate to give up following the path now. Fedora just stands out from the crowd so much that I can tolerate some inconveniences. This is just a bit too much.
I am having difficulty connecting to a PC that runs Windows 7 (and suffice it to say Windows XP as well). I go to Places > Connect to Server and choose Windows share from the drop-down list. I enter in the computer's IP address in the Server field and click Connect, when I'm brought to the "Password required for x" screen (x being the IP address). I enter my username for the Windows machine, leave the Domain field as is (it is WORKGROUP by default, which is the Workgroup name for both PCs), and then I enter my Windows password. The dialog keeps popping up as if I entered incorrect credentials. I do want to point out, on the dialog, it asks for a Domain name. Since I do not have this computer connected to a domain (I'm at home), it is a workgroup network. However, prior to Ubuntu 10.10, I was able to use this method to connect to Windows computers.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHaving looked at the various threads on the forum I have not seen one that seems to answer my issue. About a week ago I tried installing my HP Printer (PhotoSmart Plus) and was unable to due to me not having run rc.cups. I have now done that and the installation of the printer went smoothly, it was detected over the network and the correct ppd was identified (seems it is actually on the firmware of the printer) and I was able to add the printer with the HPLIP (version 3.11.3a).
However right after the printer was added HPLIP tries to get a status report on the printer, this is when I get an error "Device communication error (5012)". I have attached a screenshot of what I see. I also tried scanning from the device and I get similar errors that the device isn't responding etc. The printer is attached to the network via wireless and I am trying to print to it using my laptop also connected to the network via wifi (doubt that has any bearing but just FYI). edit: I have found on an old Ubuntu discussion that one solution a user had for this specific problem was to install SNMP... I didn't add SNMP when I installed Slackware earlier today, could this assist...?
edit 2: CUPS on localhost:631 shows the printer as idle (did attempt to print just to see but no go...
I just bought an HP Photosmart Plus B209a Printer. It does everything except actually print. It even says the job is �completed" but nothing was done. I repeated the installation 5 times with same results. Before buying, I tried to find out which printer worked. I was told by HP that all of their printers worked on Ubuntu Linux. Best Buy agreed. Is there a solution that I can understand, or must I give in and go back to dreaded Windows just so I can print? Printing seems to be a real Ubuntu Linux shortfall and major roadblock - at least from this Newbies'point of view. Is Ubuntu a poor choice for printing of the Linux options? I really want my Linux to work instead of being forced to return to The Dark Side.
I did this repeatedly: If your printer was not detected after a few moments, then you will need to follow these steps:
1.Obtain the model name of your printer.
2.Ensure the printer is turned on.
3.Choose System ▸ Administration ▸ Printing
4.Click New Printer.
I am/was(?) running a dual boot Windows 7 Home Premium and Fedora 12 system on an AMD Phenom platform.
I thought that I would try the KDE desktop and installed it with the command
yum groupinstall "KDE (K Desktop Environment)"
After tasting KDE for a while I decided that I far prefer Gnome.
I removed the KDE with
yum groupremove "KDE (K Desktop Environment)"
This appeared to work but I then found that whilst I can boot into Windows 7, I can no longer boot into Fedora 12.
I have tried booting the F12 DVD and going into to the Rescue function. I re-installed grub but still cannot boot into F12.
I have looked at grub.conf but can see nothing wrong.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI bought a HP Photosmart C6380 Printer a few days ago, and i am trying to make it work on my Laptop with Fedora 11 installed on it. Like all the ither posts concerning this problem, when i connect the printer by USB it works without a problem. I can ping the printer with success and i can also access the Web interface of the Printer. So i think that the Printer is connected correctly to my WIFI network. I have tried several things.
- I have tried to install it with CUPS, selected "HP JetDirect", put in the IP-Adress of the Printer, selected the driver for 6300
series. In the URI i had something like "socket://<IP-Adress of the printer>:9100". After that tried to print a test page -> Nothing.
- I tried it with IPP, same result, nothing.
- I also tried, after having read a lot here, to put "http://<IP-Adress of the printer>". After that, i tried to print a test page, and the printer seemed to work. But what i got was a lot of crap, really unreadable things.

- I also tried the CUPS web interface without any result.
- I also tried HPLIP. Downloaded the latest version and installed it. After installation i ran "hp-setup". I tried all the three steps, the only one that worked was step one, USB. For the rest nothing worked. I did not try the printer connected by Ethernet, but i think that this should work, because i tried an HP printer at work an that worked. I have an WIFI access point, so no ad-hoc connection. On my wife's Laptop, where Windows Vista is installed, the printer works without any problem.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI finally got around to setting up my HP Photosmart c4580 AIO printer today to print wirelessly so that I don't have to be tethered to it with a USB. I found there are many different ways of doing this, each with limited success. So I took a crack at it and this is how I got it to work. (Just an FYI, I don't think that it matters but I am running Ubuntu 10.04 64bit.) Note: I have put in screen shots of the important steps. Also, I have linked at the bottom all the relevant shots. In a terminal type
Code:
hpsetup
After pushing enter a GUI will pop open call "HP Device Manager - Setup". There are four radio buttons, I selected the "Wireless/802.11 (requires a temporary USB connection and is only available for select devices)" one and then clicked Next.
Clicking Next opens a new window for Wifi Configuration. Read what it says (Which is; after configuration setup will continue, this configuration may not work, and connect your printer to your computer by a USB cable!) Now click "Next". Assuming you haven't forgotten to plug your printer into your computer (and turn it on) you will get a "Discovered Wireless Capable Devices" list with something on it. If you do not have anything listed under "Model" and "Device URI" check all your connections and the power to your printer and click refresh. If still nothing I am sorry but this setup has failed you, but if you are lucky and something shows up, click on it and then click next. You have to have wireless internet to continue. The step you are on now has you select your wireless internet connection. Find your's and click next.
Now in the next screen you have to enter in your password for your wireless internet, then push connect. Once you connect you have now just given me access to your online banking and I am withdrawing money as you read this! I'm probably just kidding! I just wanted to make sure I haven't lost you yet. But you do want to enter your password and push enter.
After you push connect you should get a little 'progress' screen. After that is done loading you will see a screen that looks like, Now on a piece of paper or something else, write down your hostname and your IP address. After you have done that unplug the USB from your computer and click finish. Now what happens next, I could not explain. But you remember earlier the wizard said that setup would continue after configuration? Yeah well it didn't for me. And here is what it looked like.
Notice no printers available to select, and even in the terminal it shows an error. Either way, we have the information that we need to finish things up outside of this 'hpsetup' wizard. So just click cancel, close the terminal, and go back to the desktop. Now on your desktop go to System>Administration>Printing That will open a window that shows your current printer profiles. Click the add button to get a screen that looks like this,
Click the plus sign + next to "Network Printer" then click on "Find Network Printer". Now on the right half of that window there is a text box labeled "host:", enter the IP address that you copied down earlier and click the button that says "Find". Once clicking "Find" , one of two things will happen; (1)It will recognize it right away, locate the driver and take you to this screen, after clicking "forward".
or (2) It will take you to a screen showing the host name and the port number. If that happens, no big deal, just click "forward" to get the above screen. Or (3) It will not recognize the IP address that you entered. If this is the case, type in the host name you copied down earlier and click find, then click "forward" to get to the above screen. Or (4) It will not be able to locate a suitable driver. If this last scenario plays out for you then I am sorry but I don't know what to do. So lets just hope that doesn't happen. Alright now that you are on the above screen. Type in a name that you would like your computer to call your printer.
Then click "Apply". Once you click "Apply" that window will close and it will take you back to your printer list. You should notice a new printer in your lineup. Also, it is asking you if you would like to print a test page. Before you pick one, double check that your USB cable is no longer plugged in to your computer from the printer. Now, clicked "No" or "Yes". I chose "No" because test printing takes up a lot of ink. Instead of the test page I just went to my gmail and printed an e-mail. And guess what?! It worked!
