Has anyone gotten hp printing to work with a fresh install of 13.2? I have a couple printers that really want to use hplip, but the version that comes with OS does not appear to support the plugin that enables double sided printing. Further it takes 4 pages for it to print a test page (it spreads it across four pages.) The hplip from HP site does not yet support 13.2. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Hi I have a HP LaserJet Professional P1102W, works fine with SLE 11 SP3, SLE 12 and openSUSE 13.2. It's not a double sided printer though... Maybe if you provide model details? I'm assuming it download the plugin from openprinting.org when you ran hp-setup? -- Cheers Malcolm °¿° LFCS, SUSE Knowledge Partner (Linux Counter #276890) SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 12 GNOME 3.10.1 Kernel 3.12.28-4-default up 11:51, 4 users, load average: 0.07, 0.09, 0.12 CPU Intel® B840@1.9GHz | GPU Intel® Sandybridge Mobile -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Its two printers. hp-laserget-professional-1606dn network attached and an older all-in-one officejet-7310xi I've burned a ream of paper between these two printers trying to get this to work. I've finally uninstalled ALL of the opensuse hplip packages, (which are backlevel), and installed the 13.1 package version via HP's web site. Finally I can get the 1606dn to print all on one page, but it now simply refuses to to print duplex. The other printer is still printing a test page spread bizarly across 4 pages . I did tell it to get the plug-in, and it appeared to do so. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Hi I wonder if the issue is cups, not the driver?

Has anyone gotten hp printing to work with a fresh install of 13.2?

Not just HP. I have the same 4-page-wide test print on an Epson XP-610 (using Epson drivers). I've gotten some apps to print - evince prints perfectly fine - but libreoffice gives the same 4-page-spread prints as the CUPS test print. This was also a fresh clean install of 13.2 (with LXDE desktop) Ralph -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I've found that with hplip driven printers, I can get rid of the 4page by telling it to size the image to one page. This works even when the item being printed isn't an image. (well I think it's not an image but who really knows how it is getting sent. The driver type wants to select (Automatic-PDF) as the output type. Previously I found that the ppd files had outrageously large max medium size. (ppds are simple text files once you un-gzip them. They all indicated in their comments that they were created by an automated script. probably from a table or database that is clearly corrupt. I think that killing all opensuse hplip packages and installing HPs it is doing better. I'm getting two sided print, and no 4-page. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I don't know 13.2, but on other versions, I get better results by using postscript, not pdf, as my printer understands ps directly. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)

The hplip from HP site does not yet support 13.2.
openSUSE 13.2 KDE Fresh install works just fine with HP PSCs printers. I am not using HP Setup just CUPS for local USB connection. OTOH,having Canon Printer not able to print from openSUSE 13.2 KDE because bad driver issue (/usr/shar/cups/drv/sample.drv issue, can not remember clearly) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
