Software :: Hplip-gui's Toner - Ink Meter

May 31, 2011

How accurate is the ink/toner meter in the HP printer toolkit (hplip-gui)? The meter says my toner level is "good/ok" and displays a black bar with tick marks, but I'm skeptical of its accuracy. I bought this Laserjet P1006 last January, with a starter cartridge of toner that was rated for around 120 pages (if I recall), and have printed occasionally. I'm afraid of running out of toner right when I need to print something important and time-sensitive. Since it doesn't appear to be possible to look inside the toner cartridge (sorry, this is my first laser printer ), I can't do anything except hope the HP toolbox measures my toner level accurately.

Hardware :: Check HP CP-1215 Toner Levels From A Remote Machine?

Dec 2, 2010

HP's apparently all but useless Linux site suggests that their hplip drivers give you that capability. However, it also seems to expect that I will be running a GUI to use their tools.

My CP-1215 is attached to my server which doesn't have a GUI installed.

Previously I'd been using the open source CUPS driver, which seemed to work pretty well. However, I recently ran low on one colour of toner which messed up the printing. The toner-out lights on the printer never cam one, so replacing the toner cartridge was not the first thing I tried to fix it.

I've just installed the hplip / hp-plugin driver which also seems to be working. However, the CUPS web interface doesn't allow me to retrieve the toner status.

Has anyone had any luck retrieving the toner levels from an HP colour laserjet printer?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: How To Grep VU-meter From Terminal

Jan 28, 2010

Is there any way to get information about whether something is currently played via the speakers? Is there an app that "scans" the VU-meter (e.g. pavumeter) in a terminal and prints out any information about the current "sound-volume" that goes out?I'd like to create a script that prevents my Ubuntu to suspend while something (e.g. music) is played... I know that e.g. Rhythmbox has a plugin for that, but I'd like to use SongBird...

Programming :: Audio Level Meter In Javascript

May 23, 2011

When someone is speaking into the mic, I'd like a "level meter" such as the one that comes with gnome sound recorder, that flashes up and down when a sound is made or somebody talks.This will be done in Javascript, using the brand new "Rainbow API", i.e. inside the browser.I know nothing about audio programming, so - where would I get *started* with something like this? Could anyone tell me at least WHAT to Google?

How does the Battery Power Meter works.As I know that the APCI is control by software.so my question is the battery connected also to other place on the board and send signal for how much power left.or every motherboard that have APCI "Enabled" can recognize only from the DC power connector how much left. if yes, in what why it recognized.

Fedora :: Fluxbox Laptop Battery Charge Meter

Jun 24, 2011

I've been tooling around with Fedora with the Fluxbox environment on my old Dell 400SD4 laptop and it works fantastic. I'm still getting a feel for the environment, but one major concern that I had was a battery meter. Being a laptop, it's important to know when I'm almost out of juice. Does anyone have any suggestions for a battery meter for Fluxbox? Preferably one that can be installed through the yum repositories?

Ubuntu :: Battery Meter Never Accurate As Far As Time Remaining Goes

May 2, 2010

I have an Asus EEE PC900. Just installed 10.04 netbook remix and everything works fine straight out of the box. it works great and is a vast improvement on windows xp which was previously installed on the asus. Just one small thing - the battery meter is never accurate as far as time remaining goes - it currently says i have 19 hours 55 minutes to go - unfortunately this is not quite true i suspect. It was the same with 9.10, Does anyone have a solution for this?

Ubuntu Networking :: Internet Usage Monitor Meter

Jul 24, 2011

I'm using ubuntu 11.04 and have a DSL connection straight from my local telephone (landline) provider.I need a ubuntu app, preferably a daemon/service (that I can start up on boot) that, in essence, can simply log to a file, on a per session basis (with timestamps of course), the bandwidth I use (download + upload bytes).

I'm not interested in logging site info etc., just want raw data usage so at the end of the month I can run some summary reports on it.Basically I was to see if my ISP is cheating me or not (and in general to control myself on my HUGE ..... + ISO download habbits)..I need nothing fancy, even a basic command will do in which case i'll be happy to write my own basj script for that...

Ubuntu :: Hplip No Improvement 10.04?

May 2, 2010

I see that the latest hplip is by default (3.10.2 in synaptic)great I thought but unlike the 3.10.2 version which was previously downloaded from the web(for 9.04) this default version STILL cannot produce photos without borders? In trying to install the web version (over the default version) which allows for exact printer settings. my printer then went haywire! Its for this reason only that I must go back to windows for HP essential. its a pity because this problem has been known for ages

Ubuntu :: Removing Hplip From 10.04?

Jan 28, 2011

I would like to upgrade my current hp printer driver 3.10.9 to the latest version 3.11.1 According to 'Google' the command to remove the driver is sudo apt-get remove hplip but when I type this in terminal I get:liz@lizubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get remove hplipReading package lists... DoneBuilding dependency treeReading state information... DonePackage hplip is not installed, so not removed0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 12 not upgraded.

I installed 3.10.9 as per the Launchpad website - it looks like Ubuntu is not 'seeing' hplip although it is installed and working. I guess I need a more subtle command to get rid of all the hp driver files. Or could I just install 3.11.1 over the top? (Would have thought best to remove 3.10.9 first).

Fedora :: Borderless Printing With HPLIP?

Oct 31, 2010

Anyone knows how to do borderless printing with HPLIP? I have an HP Photosmart C5550. On XP it is able to print borderless (without the white edges on 4 sides) on letter size (both plain and photo paper),but in F13 I always have a white border (~5mm or 0.2 inch) on the 4 sides of plain or photo paper.

Some old postings around 2008 said I should
- run hp-toolbox
- select "Print Settings" tab
- choose "fullbleed" (eg. 1200dpi fullbleed) in "print quality".

When I tried to follow this posting, I see no "fullbleed" selection in F13. Did I miss anything?

Fedora :: Can't Install HPLIP Re Libjpeg

Apr 4, 2011

I have now two computers running Fedora 14 64 bit. The previous installation was a couple years ago and i have had no problem getting HPLIP installed - at least not a lot of trouble. This time, however, the install disk has installed the latest version but without a number of its dependencies. The .run shell only tells me that it can't install this or that dependency, in this case sane-backends-devel. When I use the command su -c "yum -d 10 -e 1 install sane-backends-devel" the dependencies are located and the debugger starts. The install proceeds until the more recent libtif 64 bit file is found already on my computer but the desired but older 32 bit version has been set up for install. This stops the business with an error. I have struggled with this until my backend is no longer sane.

I am not sure where to go from here. It looks to me as though the sane-backends-devel dependencies will always prevent an install. Is there a command I could insert to prevent this from happening - such as eliminating the d 10 switch or otherwise? Is there a way to skip one error and go on, for instance? I have not always used the shell to install, and there are several other methods out there, but without this dependency I will not be able to scan, which is what I have to do.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Hplip Fax Not Working?

Dec 28, 2009

I've set up hplip and added a "fax" device. However, when I go into open office and try to fax something, it says it's doing it, then pops up a window saying "step 3 of 5" asking me to add files to the fax (there are no others to add) and only the "cancel" button is clickable. Then in HP Device Manager, it shows the fax as having a job but it never does anything.
