to be clear, do you mean the hplip_print PET from here or the hplite package from another section?
http://www.mediafire.com/download/hk4um ... 3.16.5.pet

Those pets are installed in my system

First of all, sane-find-scanner is broken in Tahrpup 605. Is that why you installed SANE v1.0.26?

But hplip_scan v3.16.5 is definitely working with my HP models.

Because you have now made a number of changes, it's impossible to know what's going on. I would recommend a fresh install of Tahpup that reverts to the original SANE.

Then install the hplip_scan PET and check with scanimage -L.

If you want a working sane-find-scanner, pull it out of a Slacko.

Your Officejet 6200s looks like a standard model and the scanner should work. Have you tried it with other Linuxes?

It worked. My packages broke the sane backend. At the beginning I tried sane-find-scanner and did not detect anything so then I decided to compile a newer version, everything spiraled downward from there. I did not try to get the hp drivers until I had already tried to use the newer version of sane

OP links broken at mediafire

#386 Post by fitch »

as title says - the links appear to be broken from mediafire... the link i was specifically interested in is/was the tahrpup64 combo hplip printer/scanner...

if there is going to be an update anyways - is there any way to get the latest/greatest version ? ie - i think it is the 3.16-series rather than the 3.15 series now... otoh, my printer/scanner is fairly old and so it does not need the latest/greatest to work, i assume (hp officejet 4500 g-z somesuch)...

tia, h.

hplip download site

#388 Post by sszindian »

@rcrsn51

Wanted to try your hplip_print-3.16.5.pet and hplip_san-3.16.5.pet for the new 64-bit Slacko but your site hasn't been working for a week now? I guess you know by now the new 64-bit has a print problem, hopefully your .pet's will correct things?

I'm about to start using the HP laserjet Pro 200 Colour MFP, I have HPlip and HP scan installed for my HP Deskjet F2480, its been working well for a couple of years now. Do I need to install foo2xxx_rcrsn.pet to get the Pro 200 working. My distro is Slacko 5.9.3.

How to Install Your Printer/Scanner in Puppy

#394 Post by Sky Aisling »

Hello Rcrsn51,
Update: I have built a 64bit version of HPLIP specifically for Tahrpup64. This is a combo print/scan package . Download it here.
Code:
e0936e8883891fe0f2acf1cd67c95ff0 hplip_print_scan_tahr64-3.15.9.pet
Mediafire says file not there. Is there an alternative site to find this .pet?

Thank you for your response in advance.

Sky

Thank you, perdido,

Is the download website secure? Seamonkey is giving me warnings that it isn't.

Your Welcome Sky Aisling.

Pale Moon complained but I granted it a security exception. The download checked out ok.

Self signed security certificate

Code: Select all

lab2000-linux.homepc.it uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is not trusted because it is self-signed.

This will help keep the file alive, can also get it here

How to Install Your Printer/Scanner in Puppy

#399 Post by Sky Aisling »

Hello, :)
I'm having no joy attempting to make hplip_print_scan_tahr64-3.15.9.pet to work on two of my machines. One machine is a 32bit machine the other is a 64 bit machine. I am running the same Tahrpup on both machines, one via CD, one via HDD.
To my surprise when I run a startup check to see which version of Tahrpup I am running the check tells me that I am running a 32bit Tahrpup NOT a 64bit Tahrpup.
Will this make a difference in the hplip_print_scan_tahr64-3.15.9.pet running?
Thank you for your reply in advance.

Hi, all.

I'm actually getting a wee bit concerned about Bill.

Every single link to stuff he's put together is coming up with 'Invalid or missing/deleted file'. To me, this points to one of two things:-

Either he's no longer with us (period). Or,
He's given up on Puppy.

You tend to get this from file-sharing sites when stuff hasn't been accessed for, say, 6 months or more. But with the number of Puppians accessing these links, that wouldn't happen.

So that leads me to the unhappy conclusion that he's finally given up on Puppy.....and has deleted everything himself...(???)

Don't know what to think. 'Course, I could be completely wrong; I don't know what happens with file-sharing accounts if the account holder doesn't access them for several months (even though other people do)...

I do hope he's okay.


Mike. :(
