HI
I've had a Samsung laser connected on an USB port for a few years now, all working quite well. I change the cartridges and they were all recognised by the printer fine but i could no longer print anything. So i went back to basics and decided to delete it and re-add it. Its aSamsung CLP-325W (wireless) laser.
Now, using Yast (and CUPS), detection of the printer will not find a USB connection. It comes back with the following options but no USB:
1. a serial:/dev/ttyS0. 2. socket: and ipp: network addressed with correct model but also cannot print a test page (error: "Unable to add document to print job") 3: parallel:/dev/lp0
The "Connection Wizard" gives you a USB option but there is nothing in the list to select. I've tried moving the printer USB cable to other working slots but still no joy.
Anybody have any ideas how i can get an opensuse 13.2 tumbleweed KDE 4.14.5 system to recognise a printer on a USB port? My Canon USB scanner works fine.
regards
Ian
Ian: Maybe the printer broke. My guess based on the info you gave. Have you tried a different printer on that computer? Have you tried that printer on a different box? Did you make a system change immediately prior to the printer quitting? Fred -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
