printer/printing

Hi, I want to add my network printer to the workstation AMD64 (8 cores) with Gnome 3 and FreeBSD 10.3. I have successful 6 months ago and helpful to FreeBSD forum at this link https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/54788/, but i forgot all, I'll must take a notes. I've Hp Officejet pro 6830 network...

That can print from FreeBSD, and are still available to buy new in stores. Please tell me if you know of one.. It is not for professional printing, so I don't care much if it wrinkles the paper a bit or have bad dpi. The printers I found in compatibility lists are heavily outdated, unsold...

Hello out there. I've been trying to connect my printer to hplip for the last month or so. I've read all the articles posted and still can't get my printer to hook up. When I run dmesg I get the following printout: gen5.2: <HP> at usbus5 ulpt0: <HP Deskjet F4400 series, class 0/0, rev 2.00/1.00...

Hi, I have a network printer (192.168.0.7), HP officejet 6830. iI've read this link http://www.freebsddiary.org/cups.php and this link https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/howto-install-printer-scaner-hp-deskjet-f2480.39077/ so iI do the command line : pkg install cups hplip xsane and this one cd...

I've been beating my head against the wall for over a month on this, and I hope someone who knows CUPS a bit better than I can tell where I am going wrong. I suspect I have an incorrect permission issue *somewhere*, but I have no idea where. I have two very similar systems set up with FreeBSD...

So I have 2 printers; a HP PSC 2410xi and a HP Officejet Pro 8625. For the HP PSC 2410xi I use the following installation instructions below: # portmaster print/cups # portmaster print/hpijs Add to /etc/devfs.rules: [system=10] add path 'unlpt*' mode 0660 group cups add path 'ulpt*' mode 0660...

Hi all! I'm currently considering switching from Linux to FreeBSD, as I used it several years ago and I miss it :) The only problem is that I am dependent on using the printer mentioned in the title, and as far as I have been able to determine, the only available drivers are the Linux...

I'm looking for an inkjet printer which would let me do a no-hassle setup on FreeBSD 10, preferably USB or wired ethernet. I am aware of the OpenPrinting database, I'm having trouble finding there models currently sold. Would you please give your recommendation? Printers or MFPs under $150-$200.

I've just installed PCBSD and noticed that support for Epson class inkjet printers are mostly lacking from the ports-tree even though drivers are available for Linux. I had an Epson WF-3520 printer/scanner fully working on Slackware, so knew that the source was available and the steps to get it...

I used to be able to print from any application with my HP Photosmart 7600 being setup using hplip 3.14.1 and the earlier versions. But after a 'pkg upgrade' printing does not work anymore, although the hp-toolbox shows the printer as connected and idle with a green light. My guess is that this...

Mine printer doesn't work I have an Samsung CLX3185FW Multifunctional printer. While booting the printer has been seen on USB port that's right. I can install the CLX3165 printer driver but don't work nothing happens no print the strangest thing is the scanner works with xsane no problem. I have...

After I installed CUPS and registered the JetDirect printer it found on the LAN, hplip still did not have any printers and hp-setup did not allow me to switch from USB to network device search (everything but USB was greyed out). I decided to build hplip from ports and ended up with this...

Wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to get a USB HP printer working via hplip. I've followed most of the info on the net, but im I'm getting the kevent() returned Bad file descriptor error in my CUPS error log. I've tried compiling a new kernel with ulpt disabled (which seems to be...

Installing the printer/scanner on FreeBSD has always been a complicated thing because need to set permissions for users for these devices. Today I write about the installation of the HP Deskjet F2480 (USB printer and scanner in one). An attempt made on FreeBSD 8.4-RC1 (so almost like a...

I am setting up a new 9.1 system, and when I install HPLIP from a port I get an error during the build. I never had problems when I setup my old FreeBSD 9.0 system. Here is my error: checking for python2.7/Python.h... no configure: error: cannot find python-devel support ===> Script...

I am using FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE-p4 and have a HP Photosmart C7180 All-in-One (AiO) printer. This printer is setup on the LAN and it looks like it does not have a built-in LPD server. It looks like it only accepts data on port 9100. Anyway, I'm new to printing with FreeBSD. Since I can't...

Hello the forum! I've bought a wireless and multifonction printer (with scanner, copy..): a Canon PIXMAN MX510 series I've successfully installed it with CUPS and I can print a test page. I can even print with openoffice!! (Well that's pretty cool!) But who can do more can do less right?.. The...

Sigh. Setting up a printer may grow you white hair. So after using one Samsung printer which worked "out of box", this HP M1132 MFP decided to screw me over. HP + CUPS/LPD + HPLIP. Now apparently HPLIP drivers must now see u(lpt) device in /dev or everything breaks down. So I recompiled...

Hi, I'm running a FreeBSD 9.0 on amd64 and I cannot connect my printer I'm getting the error 5004 (invalid device URI) Here is my cups/printers.conf # Printer configuration file for CUPS v1.5.2 # Written by cupsd on 2012-09-26 15:29 # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE WHEN CUPSD IS RUNNING...

I am using FreeBSD 9.0 + CUPS + HPLIP + HP Deskjet F2200. I have compiled everything from ports, found my printer via the CUPS web interface, all without any obvious problems. However, when I click "Print test page" nothing happens. Here is what /var/log/cups/error_log says: X...
