Hello Don. My printer is installed in Cups as hp41: Make and Model: HP LaserJet 4100 Series v.3010.107 Postscript (recommended) Device URI: parallel:/dev/lp0 This printer works.
so I installed a new printer in Cups as hp41plip: Make and Model: HP LaserJet 4100 Series v.3010.107 Postscript (recommended) Printer State: processing, accepting jobs, published. Device URI: hp:/par/HP_LaserJet_4100_Series?device=/dev/parport0 However the printer does not print the test page and gives the error hp41hplip "open print channel failed; will retry in 30 seconds..." even though I have a /dev/parport0. Where would I find the 'hp-toolbox'? Perhaps it will open even though the printer seems not to be printing.
