 |
|
Hi,
I have alredy posted this question here as this auther says he has solved the problem, but doesn't specify how... and hasn't returned to the forums to explain.
I have a HP PSC (printer-scanner-copier) 1410 and am not using samba just plugging it into my USB port. hotplug does spot it and I can see it appear using usbview.
However when I go to set up the printer in cups according to the hplip instructions, I can't see my printer in the device drop down list.
hplip starts OK, see the log message as follows, (it does give me a no such process warning on hplip stop, but I think it is just a failing to shutdown a process that has already stopped due to a SIGCHILD signal caught during normal hplip stop)
but I notice from /var/log/messages that there is a problem generated when the printer is plugged in, as follows:-

I am using kernel | Code: | | gentoo-sources-2.6.12-r10 |
my emerge USE flags are
| Code: | # emerge -pv hplip
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild R ] net-print/hplip-0.9.7-r3 +X +cups +foomaticdb +ppds +qt -scanner -snmp +usb 0 kB

I'm getting the same messages and it hangs my scanimage.
I've got usblp compiled into the kernel, so that's not the issue.
Why is hplip looking for a parallel device? |

Errata: it doesn't hand scanimage, but it takes a hell amount of time. Took scanimage -L about 5 minutes to come up with the line

device `hpaio:/usb/psc_1300_series?serial=HU3AKBQ14Z9F' is a hp psc_1300_series multi-function peripheral |
my /etc/sane.d/dll.conf holds nothing else than the line hpaio |
