2008-10-03 09:52:54 Amorphous description I'm on a dual core machine running 8.04(64bit) and am having problems with a HP P1005 printer connected via usb. The printer has been working fine for a few days (it's a new install) but has stopped printing. This is the second time. I went through loads of howto's bug reports etc to get it working and eventually it started printing again. Part of what I did was to remove all the files in: /usrshare/hplip/data/plugins/ /usrshare/hplip/data/firmware/ /usrshare/hplip/prnt/plugins/ & restart. the printer worked again, but I had been so disorganised I'm not sure what all the other things were I had done (although I'd been round & round 100's of times doing them... flatspin sorry :( Here's what may be some useful info: amorphous@fino-1:~$ lsusb Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 002 Device 004: ID 03f0:3d17 Hewlett-Packard Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 amorphous@fino-1:~$ hp-check HP Linux Imaging and Printing System (ver. 2.8.7) Dependency/Version Check Utility ver. 14.0 Copyright (c) 2001-8 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, LP This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.

Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling the HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the proper dependencies are installed to successfully compile HPLIP. 2.

I'm on a dual core machine running 8.04(64bit) and am having problems with a HP P1005 printer connected via usb. The printer has been working fine for a few days (it's a new install) but has stopped printing. This is the second time. I went through loads of howto's bug reports etc to get it working and eventually it started printing again. Part of what I did was to remove all the files in: /usrshare/hplip/data/plugins/ /usrshare/hplip/data/firmware/ /usrshare/hplip/prnt/plugins/ & restart. the printer worked again, but I had been so disorganised I'm not sure what all the other things were I had done (although I'd been round & round 100's of times doing them... flatspin sorry :( Here's what may be some useful info: [code] amorphous@fino-1:~$ lsusb Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 002 Device 004: ID 03f0:3d17 Hewlett-Packard Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 amorphous@fino-1:~$ hp-check HP Linux Imaging and Printing System (ver. 2.8.7) Dependency/Version Check Utility ver. 14.0 Copyright (c) 2001-8 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, LP This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.

Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling the HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the proper dependencies are installed to successfully compile HPLIP. 2. Run-time check mode (-r or --run): Use this mode to determine if a distro supplied package (.deb, .rpm, etc) or an already built HPLIP supplied tarball has the proper dependencies installed to successfully run. 3. Both compile- and run-time check mode (-b or --both) (Default): This mode will check both of the above cases (both compile- and run-time dependencies).
