CUPS!

[josephdrivein]

Ho sempre ritenuto che stampare da linux fosse quasi impossibile, questo è un motivo fondamentale che mi costringe a sprecare spazio con una partizione win.

Ho una HP LaserJet 1005 , che su linuxprinting.org è data come praticamente funzionante su linux.

Ho installato cups (uso Debian Sarge), per la precisione qsti pacchetti: cupsys cupsys-client libcupsimage2 libslp1 xpdf-common xpdf-utils

Ho scaricato e compilato (tutto da root) il mio driver ( foo2zjs )

Quando accendo la stampante (subito dopo il setup) carico il firmware con

cat /usr/share/foo2zjs/firmware/sihp1005.dl > /dev/lp0

Ho aggiunto la stampante, questa è la configurazione: (/etc/cups/printers.conf)

# Printer configuration file for CUPS v1.1.23
# Written by cupsd on Tue 01 Feb 2005 07:37:08 PM CET
<DefaultPrinter laserjet>
Info HP LaserJet 1005
Location /dev/lp0
DeviceURI parallel:/dev/lp0
State Idle
Accepting Yes
JobSheets none none
QuotaPeriod 0
PageLimit 0
KLimit 0
</Printer>

Mi pare tutto a posto tranne quel "Location" dove ho messo /dev/lp0 ma sembra solo descrittivo a leggere la documentazione...

Tuttavia se dò

lp to-build.txt

da riga di comando tutto ok (job aggiunto) ma non stampa. Dal web mi dice "aborted", se lo riavvio

Error:
    client-error-not-possible

Su /var/log/cups/error_log trovo questo:

ARG!

[NA01]

butta via il file fatto a mano e con un browser vai su
localhost:631 e aggiungi la tua stampante
installa anche gimp-print. se ha voglia di compilarti la beta2 secondo me ne vale la pena, ci sono un sacco di cose in più (almeno per la mia stampante)

ciao

Purtroppo ci ho già provato (e ho letto anche pagine e pagine di pallosissimi manuali) ma niente... se ti sono familiari i log di cups non è che riusciresti a capire a cosa è dovuto l'errore?

Per quanto riguarda gimp-print, appena riesco a stampare la compilo volentieri la beta2

[Al Azif]

Se usi Gnome prova gnome-cups-manager, è più intuitivo dell'interfaccia web.

[josephdrivein]

Tengo cups ancora per un paio di giorni, poi lo elimino.
