Lets try another thing. A probable problem can be that the printer does not return a device ID and so CUPS cannot create a URI.
So try the following: Install the original CUPS package to get back to the backend based on the "usblp" kernel module: sudo dpkg -r --force-depends cupsys sudo apt-get install cupsys sudo rm -f /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.cupsd sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor restart sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart Load the "usblp" kernel module: sudo modprobe With your Dymo printer connected and turned on do ls -l /dev/usblp* How many /dev/usblp* files do you get? One per connected printer, including one for the Dymo? Or one less (only for the HPs)? Do (for each /dev/usblp* file): cat ~/.bashrc > /dev/usblp0 Do you get page output/blinking lights on your printers? Also on the Dymo? If one of the files led to a reaction on the Dymo, you will probably be able to print on your Dymo, if not, there is no /dev/usblp* file for the Dymo, which means that the kernel does not identify it as a printer. If you have found the /dev/usblp* file, you should be able to make your Dymo printing by the following steps: Edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf, adding a line "FileDevice Yes". Restart CUPS: sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart Set up the print queue: lpadmin -p Dymo -E -v file:/dev/usblp0 -m lsb/usr/cups- included/Dymo/dymo.ppd Note that in the "-v" option you have to put the /dev/usblp* file for your Dymo and in the "-m" option an appropriate PPD for your Dymo. Get a list of possible PPDs by lpinfo -m | grep -i dymo Now adjust the paper size to your labels with any printer setup tool and you should be able to print. -- cups does not see usb printer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/135044 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
