I have a Kyocera FS-2020D and Ubuntu 10.10 operating system. I followed the manufacturer instructions to install the printer, but it does not work.Cups always says processing and than nothing happens. I use PCL 6 emulation in the printer but tried the KPDL also.I contacted the Kyocera support, and they provided me a Mac OSX driver and they told me that will work because linux and mac are unix based systems...
View 3 RepliesI have suse 11.1 and with adding printer Kyocera Mita 1000+ with official driver from Kyocera, printer don't work well.
I become only:
Printer is conncted with cable lpt-usb, because printer has only parallel connector and my computer don't has a parallel port.
I wanted some input on chronic problems with Ubuntu:
1. Why does wireless almost never work right on Ubuntu?
2. Why, when Ubuntu just decides to turn off my wireless card, can I not just turn it back on?
3. Why do tar balls almost never unpack right?
4. Why are printer drivers so buggy?
5. Why do my MP3 players and digital cameras not work with Ubuntu?
I spent 3 hours last night trying to unpack a tar.bz2 file so I can run my Ralink network card. It worked fine until my son unplugged my computer. Now my card is disconnected and it will not reconnect. When I check forums no one has a simple answer for something as simple as turning a network card back on. On my Apple, it's simple: click my wireless icon and hit "on." tell me an easy way to just turn my wireless card back on, it would renew my faith a little in Linux.
My printer is connected to another PC. If I run Windoze I can do a network connect, but with Linux, even though I've set up the samba connection I can't print. If I send a print job I can hear the printer "getting the info", but then it just hangs. Having to load the print job onto a thumb drive, shoving the drive into the host PC, etc. is not what a PC geek wants to do.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'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?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have tried all the usual stuff like: apt-get cups-pdf and similar things.
Of course I use the proper way (like sudo, etc.) The point is I can't print PDF files. Have a look at the image:
<snip>
I have also modified to the cups-pdf.conf file and have directed it to /home/{USER}/PDF And yes the aforementioned folder (i.e. PDF) exists at its proper place.
So I think the main problem is "P2POutputStream" error which you can see in the image.

I am having what seems from the forum to be a common problem, getting a shared printer to work. Many similar posts to mine go unanswered for weeks. Can it not be done?I have followed the documentation, 2 computers with 10.4 ...set-up instruction followed ...sharing enabled... cups installed...printer seen by both computers... troubleshooting guide says it can see no reason printing not working, but no dice. This is frustrating to say the least. I have been working at this off and on for a couple of weeks.

On my Ubuntu machine this printer has a check mark by "Enabled" and "shared" but I cannot set it as default (that option is ghosted) and when I try to print a test page it says "unable to connect to CIFS host" I downloaded the HP Linux setup program. That program cannot locate the networked printer at all.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm running Ubuntu 9.10. The Update Manager did an update to HPLIP, the Hewlett Packard Linux Internet Printing software, one or two days ago. When I went to print today, the HP Officejet 4500 printer showed up in Open Office when my mouse pointed to the printer icon. But, the printer wouldn't work. Then I noticed that the HPLIP Toolbox icon was moved from the Applications - Accessoires folder, to the System - Preferences folder. I reinstalled all the HPLIP software, using the Synaptic Package Manager. When I click on the HPLIP Toolbox & run the HP Device Manager, it says "No Installed HP Devices Found".I was a little surprised to see the software upgrade caused the HPLIP toolbox to move fromhe Applications folder to the System folder. Because of this, I suspect there may be a bug in the upgraded software? Is anyone else having this problem?

I have have recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 on my desktop pc and set-up a shared folder and a shared printer from the Ubuntu desktop. My shared folder works completely fine and is easily accessible by my windows xp laptop. My printer sharing initially worked fine and I was able to connect and print from the windows xp laptop. Unfortunately, after a reboot of the ubuntu computer the printer is no longer found by the laptop (the shared folder, however, still works fine).
I can get the shared printer working again by using the following command to restart Samba: -
sudo service smbd restart
After restarting Samba, suddenly my laptop can see the printer again. I don't particularly want to have to restart Samba every time I boot up my computer. I understand I could probably make a script that would restart Samba automatically after booting or logging in, but I would rather fix the actual problem than use a workaround like that.
I have read the threads and have downloaded the 4 drivers/files from the brothers site and installed them.. but still can not get my USB cabled printer to work what am I missing I am running Ubuntu 10.04 sounds like brother is not the printer to have in case their is no fix what brands of printers are best for compatibility?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have recently upgraded to 10.04 and subsequently to 10.10. I have a network printer Lexmark C530dn. Before the upgrade to 10.04 it work OK. After the upgrade i have this problem: When i print something it goes right to completed jobs, without an error and without printing. My user is allowed to print, I checked that.
this is from the access log:
localhost - - [08/Nov/2010:20:38:58 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 253 Create-Printer-Subscription successful-ok
localhost - - [08/Nov/2010:20:39:10 +0100] "POST /printers/Lexmark-C530 HTTP/1.1" 200 205765 Print-Job successful-ok
When i print the self-test page, it prints fine, so I assume the problem's in the system rather than the printer.
I'm trying to get a Xerox 4150 printer added to Ubuntu 10.04 and having troubles. I downloaded a wad of printer PPD files and it has worked on all but this Xerox 4150 printer. When I provide it with Xerox's ppd file, I get the following error...
Failed to read PPD file. Possible reason follows:
/somepath/xr_WorkCentre4150.ppd: FAIL
**FAIL** Unable to open PPD file - Missing option keyword on line 30.
Has anybody had luck with either installing this ppd file or some workaround to get the Xerox 4150 installed?
I have recently installed Ubuntu and have not been able to get my printer to work. It shows that the printer is online and the pages I try to print show they are processing but there is never any response from the printer.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am probably going to get blasted for this statement which is a result of four days of frustration.There are many people on here who are having problems getting their printers to work with Ubuntu. In my case it is version 10:04. I have been reading and trying fixes for four days. Nothing works.Surely this has got to the attention of the people who know what they are doing and design these programs. I sure don't know how to fix this, along with a lot of other users. We are not being lazy or arrogant. Nothing seems to work.Surely someone in the hierarchy can put in a patch that fixes this problem.The fact that Ubuntu won't print for so many people surely must be a priority inhe development of this software. So, please will one of the program developers fix this problem and send out a patch.
