OpenSUSE Hardware :: Installing A Printer Using Manf - Supplied PPD File
Jul 1, 2011
OS 11.4-32bit on an HP Pavilion.
I'm trying to install a Konica-Minolta M5670en printer. The printer is not found in the standard list so I got the ppd file(s) from Konica. There are two potential files: M5670opn.ppd and M5670PX.PPD. As downloaded, they are packaged as either a zip file or as a directory with the zip files unzipped.
Don't, laugh! This is the first time I've had to deal with a printer not already in the database. Which files do I need to use and where the heck do I copy them? When I run Yast printer->add the printer is found on the network and I try to specify the driver - but does it need the .zip file, the expanded directory, or what? So far, I'm not having much luck pointing to the downloaded files - either the zipped or unzipped versions. Yast copies the selected file to /usr/cups/model/download but then complains about file content and dies!

I'm trying to add my Samsung SCX4500W printer to my opensuse 11.2 machine running KDE.From Yast->Printer->Add printerI am able to set the printer up, however there is no driver for my specific network printer. Samsung does provide a linux driver but I have no idea what I'm doing when installing peripherals on linux basically

I have a PPD file supplied by the printer manufacturer and thought that all I needed to do was put this in /etc/cups/ppd When I go to System Settings > Printers and add Network printer the machine is found but when I click on 'Add' nothing appears in the left hand side. Cups is installed and another HP printer is working ok. Have I missed something?

I moved to Berlin recently and I got wireless internet through an access point. I'm supposed to use the laptop's built-in wireless netcard to access the internet. This usually works in windows (connection falls out from time to time), but I have yet to make it work in linux. I'm using OpenSuse 11.3 64-bit and the Knetwork manager. Most of the settings in the network manager are correct, but it keeps wanting to use system certificates for the server. By that I mean it keeps checking 'Use CA System certificates'.
So I can't choose the CA-certificate supplied by my internet provider. I keep removing the check-mark and pointing it to the 'hotzoneCA.der' certificate. I also got a 'personal' certificate, in lack of a better word. Its called 'jacob_collstrup.p12'. The Knetwork manager seems to accept the 'jacob_collstrup.p12' certificate, but not the other one.
I just put the certificates in a folder like this /jacob/home/hotzone/zertifikate/ I can see the network fine using the Knetwork manager, and the signal strength seems ok. Not too good, but it shouldn't be a problem. I might have messed up the system, since I first tried this guide, prior to experimenting with Knetwork Manager:
1. (had to run this one as su)
Code:
wpa_supplicant -w -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -Dndiswrapper -dd �t
2. (This was supposed to be put in a wpa_supplicant.conf file)
Code:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
opensc_engine_path=/usr/lib/opensc/engine_opensc.so
pkcs11_engine_path=/usr/lib/opensc/engine_pkcs11.so
pkcs11_module_path=/usr/lib/pkcs11/opensc-pkcs11.so
[Code]...

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 have a canon pixma mp640. Under opensuse 11.2 64 bit the printer worked (printing and scanning via wifi). I recently reinstalled my system with 11.3 64 bit, and after installing the canon rpms and creating the printer I get the following error in /var/log/cups/error_log:
Code:
Backend returned status 1 (failed)
printer-state-message="Illegal backend: Success"
In opensuse 11.2 I needed to create some links:
Code:
cd /usr/lib64/cups/filter
ln -s ../../../lib/cups/filter/pstocanonij
cd /usr/lib64/cups/backend
[code]....

I have Ubuntu version 10.10 and I'm trying to install the HP DeskJet 1000 J110a printer. I have HPLIP version 3.11 (the latest version I believe). The printer shows up but when I try to print the error message reads: Printer requires the 'foomatic-rip-hplip' program but is not currently installed.

I am unable to add my USB printer via the YaST2 Printer Configuration setup tool in openSUSE 11.3. The printer, a Dell Color Laser 1320c, was last used with openSUSE 11.2, and setup was entirely uneventful. No driver is provided by Dell, so I used the Fuji Xerox DocuPrint C525A Linux driver. The problem: To add a print queue in 11.3, a Connection must be specified (parallel, USB, network, etc). However, the configuration wizard fails to show the presence of the USB print device.
[Code]...
This printer was working just eight weeks ago under 11.2, and 11.3 is obviously able to detect its presence and identify it correctly. I feel certain the solution is simple, but I haven't found documentation that provides the answer.

The DHCP server on a network I use specifies a DNS server that I do not want to use. Is there a way to continue to use DHCP but to modify the provided information or to "blacklist" one (of the three provided) DNS servers?
The client in question is running Ubuntu 10.04. Networking is managed by NetworkManager but I'm not wedded to that. In fact, I don't like it and wouldn't mind a reason to use something else.

I am trying to duplicate our company website running from Centos 5.5 to another Fedora 13 box. The output is ok but when I tried to open 1 page which automatically search pdf files, this errors appear:

In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'Asia/Manila' for 'PHT/8.0/no DST' instead in/var/www/html/site/index.php on line 1297

I am unable to connect to my printer wirelessly. I get this: Idle - "Connecting to printer..." The computer never connects. I can print a configuration report and get the ip address. If I type that in a webrowser, I get an error: unable to connect. Even if I plug the printer into the computer by a usb, I am unable to access the printer's ip address in the webrowser. I'm not sure how to proceed on getting the printer working wirelessly. It is a hp 6940 I use the HP Deskjet 6940 Series hpijs, 3.10.2rc1.9 driver. I have only recently been having printer problems. The printer has been hooked up on the same network for years. It still prints via usb.

I have a Canon PIXMA MP628 printer connected to my home network, wirelessly. PReviously, when I was running windows, I am able to print wirelessly.
My printer is connected to my router and has a static IP address of 192.168.0.199
Therefore, how can I make my printer to work in Ubuntu now, since Canon doesn't have any Linux drivers. Am I able to add printer from Ubuntu Printing Service menu? What are the options that I should select?

I've bought a HP Photosmart printer, HP Photosmart wireless e-All-in-One printer - B110a and i've got a problem installing it properly. I'm using Debian 6.0 Squeeze. When i connect the printer, Debian doesn't recognize my printer as the Photosmart B109 printer for unknown reason. When i go to the site of HP and search for a driver, it directs me to this site:I've downloaded that latest hplip file as a .run file and installed it. My printer is recognized proparly, but when i try to print a colored image, it comes out black/white. Something is not crrect. Does anyone recognize this problem with this type HP printer?

I'm such a newbie when it comes to Ubuntu, or any Linux varient, period. I was trying to install a driver for an HP All-in-One Printer and was trying all kinds of commands from different Google searches... still unsuccessful in the installation. I downloaded the file to my desktop, but after using a Chmod command someone mentioned, I now have a folder on my desktop named:
hplip-3.9.12
i right-click
select
properties
Basic Tab
Type:folder (inode/directory
Contents:unreadable
Location:/home/mesk/Desktop
Permissions Tab
Owner:root
Group:root
"You are not the owner so you cannot change these permissions". The folder's icon on my desktop has a red box with white circle on the middle right side and a lock symbol above that. I'm the only user so I don't get why the permissions are protected from me, how do i undo this?

I'm reasonably new to Linux and very new to Ubuntu . I've just installed 9.10 as a dual boot on a Windows XP Pro Dell Inspiron 9200. I have a Samsung CLP-315 that I need to configure first as a local printer then as a wireless network printer. I found the software (.bin file) on the Samsung site and downloaded it but that's as far as I got. Can I use any of the GUI package managers or do I need to use Terminal and command line syntax? Here's the real question "what is the syntax for installing software/drivers?"
