I have my Epson C46 working on my Ubuntu 9.10 machine, my XP machines are showing the printer as ready and will send a test page to the Ubuntu printer but it doesn't arrive at Ubuntu - doesn't show in the print job list on Ubuntu but does in XP??
File sharing is now working in both directions.
I have installed CentOS 5.5 to prepare for my RHEL certification. I have a Epson T11 printer. It shows Epson T11 ready when I try to print something. But it never prints. I tried lpq also. But no success. The following is the error I get:
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a parallel port printer connected using usb->parallel adapter. Sometimes the printer prints sometimes it doesn't.
A job will go the print queue and then sit there for ages. Sometimes if I unplug and then replug the usb->parallel cable the printer will print other times it will print half the document then freeze until the cable was unplugged and replugged again.
The printer never shows up in the list using lsusb (only my usb mouse and scanner do).
The printer is an hp deskjet 690c and worked fine under WinXP through a normal parallel cable. The one thing I haven't tested (but will test tomorrow) is the usb->parallel cable in XP.
I have an HP J4680 all in one that, for some reason, does not process the print job immediately when I send it. When I open my printer's properties it will list the printer's state as idle and when I go into the print que it tells me the job is scheduled for . . . (some time) which is, I think, about 5 min later by the clock on the task bar. I've been all over the settings and don't see anything that looks like it applies to that. Usually I've been restarting the printer and computer and then it will print when I send the job. Tonight I waited until the time and it did print according to the scheduled time. I need to find a way to always have it print right when I send the job.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have an HP F4135 printer which has worked fine for at least 2 years, now, but it has started acting up since installing Ubuntu on our computers.
We had been running Windows XP on the computer to which the printer was connected, but ever since we "upgraded" to Ubuntu the printer has been printing green in place of black whenever using it to print any sort of document from Firefox. This isn't black mixed with green; it's a bright, lime green.
For some reason, it works fine when it's printing something directly from the computer's hard drive, like a document, .pdf file, etc. It's only when printing from Firefox that it starts messing up, whether it be a file opened temporarily from a website or the direct contents of a web page.
We've tried adjusting the printer settings and the only thing that makes a difference is changing the Printout Mode from Normal (Color Cartridge) to Normal Grayscale (Black Cartridge). This seems to be the only thing to stop it from printing in green, but that really isn't a good fix, since it makes all the other colors turn to black, which isn't really fixing the problem.
All seems well in Ubuntu printer setup and drivers. Cups, hpijs hplip etc., system finds printer and sets it up and from system/administration/printing the printer shows up with the right description Hp deskjet d2600 on local host. when I try to print I get message "started job" and another message "finished job" but nothing prints. The log Var/log/cups/error_log shows only one thing that I think is wrong "cupsd authorize:no authentication data provided". my user name john and one other Andy (I installed) show up in lp group. I could attach the whole error_log file if it would help. I am new to Linux but love it. I used Windows NT for years. I am the administrator on the box. Don't know what to try next.

Nothing has been installed unless it came through slackpkg, and yes it is still on the correct setting for arch and revision. CUPS shows printer as installed, accepting jobs an idle. No error messages are appearing but nothing is reaching the printer. The info I can glean is from the error logs in CUPS:

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04, and I have an HP D1660 printer. The printer has already been added, and HPLIP is installed. I can't get anything to actually come out of the printer, even though I can send a job to the printer. Does this have anything to do with CUPS?
Here are some of the last error log messages after using the printer troubleshooter (I only included some because it's a long list):
I have successfully gotten my Canon MX300 Printer to work with CUPS. The printer works great, but for some reason it prints out white lines incredibly slow. The printer acts as if it is printing out actual text, e.g. if I have half a page of empty space, it prints it line by line for some reason... Anyone know what may cause this? I know that CUPS is not ideal with all printers, but it did not do this at first actually.
View 2 Replies View RelatedJust recently got a few printers connected to the network at my shop and I've managed to get them connected in with samba for the linux clients. Whenever I try to print from one of the clients, the printer will click on and whiz away, but only prints on the first page stuff that looks like this:
Code:
%!PS-Adobe-3.0
%%BoundingBox: 38 24 574 768
%%Title: Enscript Outpu
%%For: User N
It seems to me that the printer isn't processing the postscript data properly (or I'm just not sending it in the right format) but I'm at a loss as to how to go about fixing it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm struggling on installing a KONICA-MINOLTA printer magicolor 4695MF printing properly with Linux Mint Debian Edition (up to date). The test page works fine...
KONICA-MINOLTA delivers 2 PPDs: one for standard printing and one for OpenOffice printing (available on the KONICA-MINOLTA support site).
Leaving a side the one for OpenOffice which is poor in using the capabilities of the printer, I concentrate only on the global one (M4695PX.ppd).
It's much more difficult for other applications, starting with EVINCE: some PDF files are printed properly (i.e. those generated in OpenOffice by the CUPS PDF printer), others come out as one only blank page, regardless to the original length of the document.
So documents received from 3rd party may be "printable" or not. And trust Murphy, the most critical aren't printed...

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?

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 just changed the printing cartridges on my printer and now it prints all red from ubuntu. However if I just print directly from the scanner there is no problem. This printer use to work no problem under ubuntu.
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy HP F4180 only prints blank pages. It can, however, print out a test page, so there's no issue with the ink or hardware, it seems. Also, it used to print properly in the past. I've run hp-check, but the program ends up with no warnings or findings. Likewise, the HP appelet ends every print job with a 'completed' status, seeming to think all's well. The only remote clue I've found so far: HP's troubleshooting tool noticed that the page format is 'letter' (small 'l') according to the printer settings in System>Printing, but 'Letter' (capital 'L') according to the Open Office printer properties dialogue box launched when trying to print. The troubleshooter referred to this discrepancy as a possible 'alignment' issue. Could this possibly account for the failure to print? If so, how could the two page size descriptions be made identical (they come from drop down menus which I don't know how to access)?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've installed Ubuntu 10.10 on an old box to use as an office print/fax and file server. I tried the server edition but I had no chance with command line programming so I've just used normal Ubuntu.
Ubuntu itself is working fine and I've installed my HP Officejet printer and it's fully working on the Ubuntu box. SAMBA and CUPS are installed.
I've then added the printer onto my Vista machine and here's where the fun starts. The Vista box sees the printer on Ubuntu, adds it with no problem and happily prints test pages, but I can't get it printing anything else.
I can't for the life of me find any reason why it would print a test page, but not print from Word, adobe or even a browser.
Now the only thing is that it is streaking in color mode. It gives a light shade at regular intervals down the page. I am somewhat new to Ubuntu and open source, converting from windows. I tried printing in windows to see if it was the printer. It prints fine in windows. [URL]

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn spite of the fact that the printer set-up is working with the Gimp and other more involved print-capable programs.
The printer is a Dell 3100cn color laser printer.
The best driver I found was one I got off of Dell's site - it was an RPM that I aliased (I'm using Debian lenny).
I set Openoffice Writer's printer configuration to "letter."
I check the settings in the print pop-up before I print.
And then the printer asks me for A4 paper.
I decided I wanted to give ubuntu a go by installing it on a 4GB USB drive.
I installed it using this guide url.
I booted up and it hung on the 'mounting file system', I left it for ages and eventually it goes to a black screen and prints out an error message, I can't type anything on my keyboard.
I tried to install HP laserjet P1007 printer in my fedora 8 desktop. I followed these instructions:
yum -y install gcc*
wget -O foo2zjs.tar.gz [URL]
tar zxvf foo2zjs.tar.gz
cd foo2zjs
[root@arnab~]# make
[root@arnab~]# make install
[root@arnab~]# make install-hotplug
$ ./getweb 1005
$ ./getweb 1006
$ ./getweb 1007
$ ./getweb 1008

Then I found the printer and add it. But the problem is when I tried to try to print a test page, it shows "job1 submitted".....that's all. No page gets printed. If I try once more, it shows "job2 submitted" but again no results. I cant also see all the submitted jobs.
In the past when I had Slackware 12 with brother HL-2040 printer drivers installed, the printer was working fine. Then I upgraded to slackware 13, but I had too many problems with it so I downgraded back to 12 and reinstalled everything related to slackware 12. Now I can't get the printer to work properly. I installed both the LPR and the CUPS drivers (in RPM packages) provided by brother for linux. I find that now every time I try to print something (even graphics) in KDE 3.5 (for slackware 12), the printer prints excessive pages where the first page starts with something like this:
%!PS-Adobe-3.0
%%LanguageLevel: 1
Are there any special settings that I am unaware of that I should be changing in order for the proper printout to appear? Is there something special that I have to install that I wasn't previously told about?
I have recently purchased an HP F4480 all-in-one printer.The printer part works, and so does copies (I think all copiers work without needed to be plugged into the PC).It however won't scan. I'm assuming I am missing some driver for it, but I can't seem to find it. I have even tried contacting HP support but no luck.I'm a tad surprised, I heard HP was great with Linux.Anyway, I tried to find the scanner manually, in the Control Center, tried sane, xsane, kooka. Nothing is detecting this printer.If it matters, I am using Mandriva 2009.1 Powerpack edition.
