Hello. I can't get my printer working. I have a HP 660C and a SMC Barricade 7004 gateway with a build-in print spooler. The printer is plugged into the Barricade. This is a very old (8+ years?) and very creaky printer, but it is my only printer and works OK for printing off mapquest directions and such.
The printer works when directly plugged into a Windows laptop. My desktop is linux-only and USB only, whereas the printer is a parallel printer. From the CUPS administrative page http://localhost:631 HP DeskJet 660C Foomatic/hpijs (recommended) Description: HP Deskjet 660CSe Location: 220 Sullivan B3 Printer State: stopped, accepting jobs. "Remote host did not respond with data status byte after 300 seconds!" Device URI: lpd://192.168.123.254:515/lp With this URI, I get the following two lines in the barricade log every time I try to print a test page: Fri Feb 13 11:32:50 2004 kiyone sent a job to printer Fri Feb 13 11:32:50 2004 job was killed The job itself remains in CUPS' queue until I manually cancel it. I've tried variations on the URI, but they don't work at all. The printer will print a hardware test page if I have it do it's boot-up test. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
