CUPS installer |
|
Dear Pakt;
I'd installer successfully the CUPS by your instructions.
But I could'nt print the test page.
I use the EPSON EPL 5800L connected in parallel port.
Your instructions about 'how to install the CUPS with printer on parallel port or USB port' is very clear and easy to understand. Thank you.
I use the version Puppy 2.01 (installed on HDD)

I have yet to try this script out, but I did use Rarsa's scripts to get CUPS up and running. I thought I had the same problem that you had, but as it turns out all I had to do was click print in Abi Word, leafpad etc... I was tricked into thinking that it wouldn't work, because when I would use the file pull down menu to select print, then look for my printer in the list of available printer it wasn't there. Since I couldn't select my printer I assumed it wouldn't work, but then someone pointed out all I needed to do was click print anyway, and then CUPS would filter it and print it with the default CUPS printer.
I hope this solves your problem, but I still don't have any idea why some programs will let me select which printer I want to use and other I have to print on the CUPS default printer, and the only way to change printers is to change the CUPS default printer in the html interface tool. Perhaps that is the subject of another thread though.
Good luck,
-Jason

IrDA |
|
I would like to test this new install script over an IrDA port. I haven't been able get this working with the files from Slackware 10.1, but who knows this is 10.2 now right. I have a HP DeskJet 450 I have been able to get it working over USB and Parallel with the script Rarsa provided, I was wondering if I should uninstall the current version of CUPS installed before I run your script or will it simply overwrite any necessary files?

vanchutr, could you attach your cups error log to a post?
Pack the error log file:
# tar -czf errorlog.tar.gz /var/log/cups/error_log
Then attach file errorlog.tar.gz to a new forum post so we can examine it.

Ok, I think I have at least a partial answer. I've connected my parallel port printer to a second PC running Puppy 2.02 in my network. Then from my first PC running Puppy 1.07 with CUPS installed (and normally printing through a wireless gateway printer server), I open AbiWord with a text document, click on File -> Print... -> 'Location: Custom' I changed 'lpr' to 'lp -d HL1030@192.168.0.191' (the name I gave my printer@the IP-address of the second PC). The text file printed successfully!
(See attached image)
EDIT: This also worked from GSview
Hope this works for you.
Paul

Actually the only file that was updated between 10.1 and 10.2 was espgs-xxx. I then added gimp-print-xxx, so running my script *should* just update & add to your original files. You might make a backup first just to be on the safe side.
Please let us know if you get IrDA printing to work, and if so, how you did it

Print CUPS |
|
Dear Pakt
I provide some informations with after my installation Epson 5800L Printer.
In consol (Terminal) I lauch the command:
# lp testfile.txt
ang got the message:
request id is Epson-EPL-5800L-epl5800l-4 (1 file(s))
But nothing comes into my Printer.
# lp stat -p-d
that give:
printer Epson-EPL-5800L-epl5800l is idle, enable since Jan 01:00:00 system default destination: EpsonEPL-5800L-epl5800l
# lp -d Epson-EPL-5800L-epl5800l -0 testfile.txt
that give:
lp: unable to print file: client-error-not-found
Do that mean: I'd installed succesfully my Epson Printer?
I trap what error that don't allowed me to print with my Printer?
(Sorry about my bad english)
Thank a lots

Re: error-log |

vanchutr, thanks for the file, but please just attach it to the post next time - don't print it out. It takes too much space!
You need to change the detail level of the log file. Please do the following:
1. Edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and change the line that says "LogLevel info" to "LogLevel debug" and save the file.
2. Delete /var/log/cups/error_log
3. Re-start CUPS:
# /etc/rc.d/rc.cups start
4. Now try to print again, then pack the new error log file:
# tar -czf errorlog.tar.gz /var/log/cups/error_log
and attach file errorlog.tar.gz to a new forum post. Don't print it out!

ijs_server_epsonepl was still not installed after I dist-upgraded to dapper.
What package contains it?
Re: ijs_server_epsonepl not found from Denis Jacquerye at 2006-06-06 21:39:58 UTC
I could not find any package with the ijs_server_epsonepl.
http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?word=epsonepl&searchmode=searchword&case=insensitive&version=dapper&arch=i386
The file can be compiled from the Epson EPL-5x00L/EPL-6x00L Printer driver package
http://sourceforge.net/projects/epsonepl/
The cupsys PPD file calls gs with the -sIjsServer argument set to ijs_server_epsonepl but no package installs it.
Re: ijs_server_epsonepl not found from Ali Afshar at 2006-07-14 20:00:08 UTC
I can confirm that compiling http://sourceforge.net/projects/epsonepl/ and copying the resulting executable ijs_server_epsonepl to /usr/bin makes everything work perfectly.
Should this package be in Ubuntu somewhere?
|
It seems a file called 'ijs_server_epsonepl' is needed to make your printer work. I couldn't find it in the CUPS files.
Sorry, but I cannot help you more than this. Maybe someone else has a suggestion?

Ok, I think I have at least a partial answer. I've connected my parallel port printer to a second PC running Puppy 2.02 in my network. Then from my first PC running Puppy 1.07 with CUPS installed (and normally printing through a wireless gateway printer server), I open AbiWord with a text document, click on File -> Print... -> 'Location: Custom' I changed 'lpr' to 'lp -d HL1030@192.168.0.191' (the name I gave my printer@the IP-address of the second PC). The text file printed successfully!
Hope this works for you.

Thanks Paul,
This worked for abiword.
Any idea how to make this the default instead of having to type it in for every document?
tia,
Norm

Dear Pakt,
Anyway, I must say thank you.
I will try the 'eps...ijs' deal with your comments.

Found this on the net: http://cfm.gs.washington.edu/printing/cups/
'lpq' will show your default printer:
| Code: | # lpq
HL1030 is not ready
Rank Owner Job File(s) Total Size
1st root 1 gsvxeDwRpm 105472 bytes |
Change the default printer like this:
| Code: | | # lpoptions -d HL1030@192.168.0.191 |
Now lpq shows:
| Code: | # lpq
HL1030@192.168.0.191 is ready
no entries |
Leave the AbiWord printer setting to 'lpr' and it will print to the new default printer. I tried it and it works.
This should work for all applications.
EDIT: I don't know if the change survives a re-boot. You may have to put the command in /etc/rc.d/rc.local so it executes every time you boot-up.

CUPS with Printer Epson EPL 5800L |

Dear Pakt,
You said:
'It seems a file called 'ijs_server_epsonepl' is needed to make your printer work. I couldn't find it in the CUPS files.'
That's exact. I follow your comments and instructions to install my Epson Printer. Now I can work with my PuppyLinux with Printer Epson in parallel port.
Thank you a lot.
