| - | | SANE CONFIGURATION | | ||
| - | ---------------------- | ||
| - | 'hpaio' in '/etc/sane.d/dll.conf'... | ||
| - | OK, found. SANE backend 'hpaio' is properly set up. | ||
| - | Checking output of 'scanimage -L'... | ||
| - | libusb couldn't open USB device /dev/bus/usb/001/001: Permission denied. | ||

| - | </file> | ||
| - | Start cups daemon. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Configure CUPS via it's web interface by opening page (be sure not use any proxy otherwise you will get noauth error): [[http://localhost:631/|http://localhost:631/]] select tab "Administration" click "Add Printer". Wait while select "Local Printers"/"HP Printer (HPLIP)" click "Continue". Paste device URI as detected in hp-check (in my case it was "hp:/usb/Officejet_4300_series?serial=CN68MGJ23N04GR") Add Printer selecting name without spaces and other special characters, select ppd file for your brand of printer. Add also location (like host/root - useful for identifing which printer you wish to operate on) and if share checkbox. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Note for HP printers you can use alternate device: usb://HP/[[:LaserJet|LaserJet]]%203050?serial=00CNSK531742 This probably (?) means no HPLIP code is used ? So it's worth to configure that printer too... | ||
| - | |||
| - | Also there might be many ppd files for devices: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <file>hpijs pcl3 3.10.2 (en) | ||
| - | pcl3, hpcups 3.20.2 (en) | ||
| - | </file> | ||
| - | No idea what is difference - they come from different sources: | ||
| - | |||
| - | In case of problems check [[http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CUPS|http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CUPS]] | ||

| - | ===== Printing from windows ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Using cups daemon (windows 2000 and up) ==== | ||
| - | One options is make windows talk ( via IPP?) using urls taken from list of printers (open in www browser): | ||
| - | |||
| - | <file> http://<hostname>:631/printers/ | ||
| - | </file> | ||
| - | pick printer url (copy url to buffer) you know it works like: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <file>http://<hostname>:631/printers/<printername> | ||
| - | </file> | ||
| - | In windows select "add printer" select network url and past url from buffor, clikc next, add dirvers for printer if needed. If you do not have drivers use "MS Publisher Color Printer" driver from the "Generic" manufacture. | ||
