[opensuse] anyone willing to help get my printer working in opensuse 11?
I've re-installed CUPS many times, using yast or a modified version of the docs located here: http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:CUPS_-_Reinstalling_the_Printing_System Printer: Hp laserjet 1100 C4224A (not a ll in one despite what yast thinks) Parallel Port 1 Error when configuring it in yast: cups(File)DoRequest error: client-error-bad-request openSuse 11 I've even tried using the scanner/printer in one drivers that yast seams to think I am using I tried Manuel selecting my printer and drivers I've rebooted I've tried every random thing I could find online.(most calls for help with this error I see went unanswered) The only thing I have where someone has fixed this is from re-installing suse and hope for the best, but I am hoping to avoid that as I just got most everything else working. Any help? please? - Cody -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

theres really never a need to do a complete re install to get a printer to work, or even reboot, thank god this isnt windows. is this the printer? http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-LaserJet_1100 looks pretty straightforward and supported 100%, try using the ppd from the site, see what happens. steve -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I had this problem in older versions of opensuse, I'm afraid I no longer remember what I did to fix it. Try enabling or removing and adding the printer via http://127.0.0.1:631. If I remember correctly, CUPS disables a printer that doesn't respond a number of times. Printer state is "idle, accepting jobs, published" here.
I've even tried using the scanner/printer in one drivers that yast seams to think I am using I tried Manuel selecting my printer and drivers I've rebooted I've tried every random thing I could find online.(most calls for help with this error I see went unanswered)
I'm using the same printer model here in opensuse 11 without any problem. The driver is "HP LaserJet 1100 Foomatic/ljet4 (recommended) (HP/LaserJet_1100- ljet4.ppd.gz)". One more thing: reloading parport_pc, which the yast printer module does when it scans for printers, may disable your parallel port, requiring a reboot in order to use it again. This is an old kernel bug.

Try http://localhost:631 instead of Yast. The HP Laserjet 1100 is listed there.

Cody, I've run into this before but can't remember what HP printer. Use Yast to delete the defined printer, and save....leave Yast, IF you have hplip installed...if not, do so. As root, and from command line, type: hp-setup It SHOULD setup the printer correctly for you.

Hi Cody and list, - found this link: http://ejs.seniejitrakai.net/ - which (about in the middle) said: "Make Samba and CUPS in Debian friends again I’ve seen a lot of these entries in logfiles recently: [] printing/print_cups.c:cups_job_submit(656) Unable to print file to - client-error-bad-request And the printing is stopped, of course. The solution is simple: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 /etc/init.d/samba restart In short: /var/log/cups/error_log shows a lot of E [] Unsupported character set “iso-8859-1″! CUPS requires UTF-8. In the case of default login in Debian, the console IS in UTF-8, but is not if you have customized it and use `su` for administrative tasks." Hope this is of a little help :-) -- ------------------------------ Med venlig hilsen/Best regards Verner Kjærsgaard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I think your problem is: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=388149 What you have to do is: Open the software management and search for hpijs and remove the hpijs- standalone package. Search for hplip and install the hplip and hplip-hpijs package. Open a konsole and become root, i.e. enter su and your password. Start hp-setup a window will open and guide you thorugh the installation process. You should have an internet-connection since it has to download the firmware for your printer. After that you might have to restart cups. If installation fails, you can run hp-check and check the output. In your menu and/or systray you will see a hp-logo which you can use to open the hp-toolbox.

Thanks everyone.
I got it working, but yast still says it is not
installed/unconfigured.(and still gets the error if I try) But it's
working, and my clients can print to it through samba.
Not quite sure exactly what fixed it, but I installed it in webmin,
also checked cups web pages.

Usually the reason is what we describe in our "release notes": /usr/share/doc/release-notes/openSUSE/RELEASE-NOTES.en.html "CUPS (Common UNIX Printing System) and UTF-8 Encoding" Kind Regards Johannes Meixner -- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany AG Nuernberg, HRB 16746, GF: Markus Rex -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
Those release notes basically say as long as you use the default
preconfigured stuff included with opensuse you wont have a problem.
Everything about the install and operation was standard, I didn't pull
any 3rd party stuff that broke it, it was it's own configuration.
It only works now because I didn't use yast to to it. But thanks for your reply.
Release notes:
CUPS (Common UNIX Printing System) and UTF-8 Encoding
Since CUPS 1.3.4 the cupsd accepts only UTF-8 encoded data. Because
this change is backward incompatible, older CUPS clients such as CUPS
1.1 may no longer work—for example, see
http://www.cups.org/newsgroups.php?gcups.general+T+Q%22unsupported+charset%2....
Applications communicating with the cupsd such as hp-setup or the YaST
printer configuration, do no longer work if neither a plain 7-bit
ASCII nor a UTF-8 locale is used. The problem does not occur if you
use a default UTF-8 locate as pre-configured on openSUSE since several
years.
