[01-29-13 07:39]: Finally it became necessary to have some printing facility from my oS 12.2 KDE 4.9.5 machine. There are two available printers in our workgroup (this time it is a group of people). The first is a HP network printer with fixed IP. The other is also a HP and connected via USB to a Win XP box, also with fix IP. Both printers work fine from Win machines. I read tons of documents in the last days, but none of them could be made even to spin up its toner. I tried to set them up with CUPS and also with YAST. Also installed hp-plugin. The network printer's IP can be pinged, and I see the other as a share with samba. Tried firewalls on and off on both machines, but to no avail. install hplip, it will bring some other packages zypper -v in hplip
then I have the best luck using hp-setup as root from command-line to install printer. I also on the first page use manual to assign the printer ip.
except for an occasional, unexplained loss of netowrk connection, I have no problem scanning or printing from my networked hp color laserjet 2840 from openSUSE Tumbleweed or win7 from five computers, and can ssh in and print from remote. Google's remote print service will print once after initializing system/service, but no more :^(.
gud luk, Hi,
Thanks for the tips. I already have hplip installed. I also tried running hp-setup but stuck at the first page. i chose network/ethernet printer and no device was found. I gave manually the IP (160.114.20.70 - HP 2300 dn PCL6) and the printer was not found. Pinged the IP and of course it can be pinged. Something muist be here on my side.
