And there is also "Print Class: LJColor,Postscript".
I'll have a look. [...] I don't find it. The usb device is listed in the cups device drop list as: "HP Color LaserJet CP1515n USB#1 (HP Color LaserJet CP1515n)" and if I choose that, I don't see that generic print class in the next droplist. If I try from Yast, I don't know what make/model to choose either. The current choice, cp3505, works fine (postscript), but I have to be careful not to choose an option that is not supported by my printer. It will suffice till I update the driver.
It is a PostScript printer and you don't need any driver at all for normal printing - only the right PPD file - that is all.
And the file can be found.... where? :-?
But if you need extra features (e.g. what hp-toolbox offers) you should set it up with "hp-setup" (run it as root) to make sure it gets a "hp:/..." device URI (and not a generic "usb:/..." device URI which does not work for hp-toolbox).
It fails, because the printer is unknown to its database. It says that no printer is found: Sep 11 13:52:55 nimrodel hp: io/hpmud/model.c 513: no HP_Color_LaserJet_CP1515n attributes found in /usr/share/hplip/data/models/models.dat Sep 11 13:52:55 nimrodel hp: io/hpmud/model.c 524: no HP_Color_LaserJet_CP1515n attributes found in /usr/share/hplip/data/models/unreleased/unreleased.dat Sep 11 13:52:55 nimrodel hp: io/hpmud/musb.c 1967: ignoring hp:/usb/HP_Color_LaserJet_CP1515n?serial=00CNAT83KGSH support=0 Sep 11 13:52:55 nimrodel hp: io/hpmud/pp.c 627: unable to read device-id ret=-1
Now the problem is that only since HPLIP version 2.8.5 this model is known to "hp-setup" so that you would need HPLIP version 2.8.5 only to get an easy and correct setup.
Right.
For software for openSUSE I recommend to use http://software.opensuse.org/search where some friendly openSUSE members may have already made the right packages for you (and where the openSUSE build service buils them exactly matching for the various different openSUSE versions).
Just my thought :-)
Currently I am a bit late (I provide only 2.8.5 but this should be o.k. for you) but another even more friendly openSUSE member provides already the latest hottest best version 2.8.7 ;-)
Yes, webpin finds that friend of yours, but not your repo :-? [...] Ah, it finds it but for 10.3, not for 11.0. I usually do not install repos from .../home unless told to, because often they are made for testing purposes. That's why I asked here.
By the way: I like the openSUSE build service.
:-) Me too, but it is not easy to know the purpose of each repo. I do not know if the "anubisq1" repo is for general use or not, and in this case, your repo is not listed. [...] Ok, it is webpin fault, it did not list your repo for 11.0 when searching for hplip. I found it for 10.3, changed the name, added the repo. Installing. Found also "pkpgcounter", looks cute, calculating ink coverage. Installing too. Thanks :-) [...] Ok, I installed like: Description: HP Color LaserJet CP1515n Foomatic/hpijs, hpijs 2.8.5.23 Location: Local Printer Driver: HP Color LaserJet CP1515n Foomatic/hpijs, hpijs 2.8.5.23 Printer State: processing, accepting jobs, published. Device URI: usb://HP/Color%20LaserJet%20CP1515n I haven't seen "postscript", but the list is so big and not searchable... it might be there. Printing fails.
