shimshon Posted July 14, 2006 Report Share Posted July 14, 2006 How do I install the Printer, with the MCC it doesn't work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinynorman Posted July 14, 2006 Report Share Posted July 14, 2006 According to linuxprinting.org, the printer should work perfectly. If you describe what you're doing, and what errors you get, someone can probably help you. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shimshon Posted July 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 I looked at Linuxprinting.org and followed the installation instructions. First I checked if I have the driver with this command: [root@bzq-84-108-100-88 shimshon]# rpm -qa | grep hplip hplip-hpijs-0.9.4-6mdk Then I tried to connect the printer with this commands: [root@bzq-84-108-100-88 shimshon]# /etc/init.d/cups restart bash: /etc/init.d/cups: No such file or directory [root@bzq-84-108-100-88 shimshon]# /etc/init.d/cupsys restart bash: /etc/init.d/cupsys: No such file or directory And that is how far I got!

scarecrow Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 Simply service cups start (as cups is not located in all distros at /etc/init.d) should do the trick. If it doesn't urpmi cups (although normally it should be already installed). Also checkout the services session of MCC, cups should be listed there as a service. you can set it from there to be loaded as system startup, or manually.

scarecrow Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 Some of the packages in your list above have been updated (version numbers do not match). Refresh the hdlist of your updates repository and try fetching them again. If it fails again, then the above ftp mirror is rather out of sync and should be substituted by a more reliable one.

scarecrow Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 urpmi.update <media> (just replace <media> with what you've used when setting your urpmi repos).
