Hallo, Thank you Burkhard Kohl for your help. The problem was : Yast2 , and my way to see things, and do them like I saw , I'v done before . Not all Scr where installted and so the 'build' wasn't. After a few houres, I stept to restart my Installation ( even it was a brand new Installation ) But now, having a better installt SuSE 7.2 , and doing things by reading,understanding and then doing . I saw that the project has problems with ieee12844 on Kernl 2.4 Is this still reel ? I tring now Kernl 2.2.19, but no doesn't work . (see hpoj_on_2..2.19) where to i wrong I compiled old src, to find out a hpoj-0.4 OK hpoj-0.5 OK and hpoj-0.6 same as hpoj-0.7 make install installes on /usr/local/lib libptal.so (a symlink to libptal.so.0.1) libptal.so.0 (a symlink to libptal.so.0.1) libptal.so.0.1 make don't touche the other Makefile's Charlie |

David: I have some code available for an xhpcontrol app. It looks somewhat like what you last requested (sorry it took so long to respond), but does not yet have any useful abilities. It can be downloaded from my site at http://pages.cthome.net/jsp/hpoj-linux-gui/index.html . There is also a patch for hpoj/configure.in that will allow the app to be built under hpoj/apps/ . Some of the files / classes are just skeletons, but there is enough code to create a bare framework. There are many parts of the application that need a more experienced coder than me. I can do the "grunt work" of adding the many needed widgets, but the file i/o, plugin architecture, device communication, etc. should be handled by someone with more experience in those areas. There are also some areas involving Qt that I'm not yet familiar with. If someone wants to and has the ability to help with any of it, It would be fine with me. The package probably isn't ready to be added to the hpoj module in CVS. Would it be a good idea to temporarily add it to the project as a separate CVS module? Can that be done? I included in the tarball some documentation generated by Doxygen. It wouldn't necessarily be useful to keep the docs in the project, but having some extra documentation may help potential contributors understand the application a little quicker / better. I'm not sure which versions of Qt will be necessary to build xhpcontrol. Versions below 2.0 won't work. It probably would be difficult to make the application compatible with 1.x.x. I don't think it would be worth the trouble. I am unable to use any 2.x.x version other than 2.3.0+ on my system, so if someone with an early version (2.0.1 ?) installed and working can test the build, it would be very helpful. -- Joe |

You could use the cdj550 (DeskJet 550) driver that comes standard with ghostscript. However, for the best print quality you should also install the latest version of the hpinkjet driver (currently 0.97). hpoj-0.7 doesn't support scanning on your model. If you want scanning support right away, then you can try out the development (unstable) code in CVS. Around the beginning of August I plan to release version 0.8, which will also incorporate this functionality. > I tried to > find a FAQ, but to no avail. There's no mention of hpinkjet in the 0.7 documentation because it hadn't been released by the time I released 0.7. I haven't yet updated this in CVS, but I'll do it before 0.8. David |

I thought I would post this to help others having problems. This is comi= ng from memory as I'm at work so feel free to correct any problems you see. = Also the hpinkjet code is not in Debian yet so I am using the gimp print drive= rs for now. The maintainer hopes to have this included sometime soon. First, my setup. I use a fairly regularly updated Debian unstable. cust= om compile of kernel 2.4.5. I have an G55 with a USB connection. I have th= e CVS of hpoj. It may be slightly out of date but that shouldn't matter for th= is. Here are the steps I followed. 1) Follow the INSTALL doc and make sure that ptal-connect is working and you can print basic text files. 2) I then grabbed the following packages: gimp1.2-print, = cupsys-driver-gimpprint, cupsys, and maybe cupsys-client 3) In your favorite graphical browser(not sure if this works with = lynx, etc...) go to http://localhost:631 4) Go to the administration tab and login as root when prompted. You= may be able to use a different user depending on the permissions = you have set up 5) Now add a new printer. Use the following options a)Fill in whatever you want for the name, location, etc fields b)Disk file, then use file:/dev/ptal-printd/mlc_usb_0 c)HP d)And then the gimp print driver for the 900 series(this may vary= if you are using a different printer) e)Use your common sense(or ask) on any other stuff but I think those were the only ones 6) Restart cupsys by running, as root, "/etc/init-d/cupsys restart" 7) Try printing a test page and hope it works. I got this working basically by messing around for awhile. If there are = any problems, missing packages, typos, or suggestions for improvement please = let me know. Also if you do use this and find it useful let me know. If the= re is enough interest I would be willing to clean it up, formalize it, and send= it to David for inclusion with the package. Hope you enjoy it, Ben ____________________________________________________________________ Get free email and a permanent address at http://www.amexmail.com/?A=3D1 |

Hi, In searching for printer drivers while shopping for a Linux-compatible printer, I stumbled across your project. If I could get my OfficeJet 600 to work, I could solve my printer problems. I run SuSE 7.1 with kernel 2.4. I have the 0.7 version of the HPOJ driver and the patch mentioned on the site. Maybe I am not too swift, but how do I use the patch? Am I patching the kernel, its source, or a Makefile? Once that is done, is installing 0.7 enough or do I also need to install the 0.96 version of the inkjet driver? I tried to find a FAQ, but to no avail. Thanks. Steve ------------------------------------------------------------ --== Sent via Deja.com ==-- http://www.deja.com/ |

Hi, I just added the capability for "ptal-hp scan" to auto-detect the image length/height even in situations where the device doesn't report it. This means the end of "corrupt JPEG data" errors and oversized images. The "-length" switch is still supported if you really want to override the image height, and it now also supports decreasing or increasing the height if you put a plus or minus in front of the number. I updated SCAN-HOWTO to reflect these changes. David |

Well, just type $ uname -r to find out - it is the command line to request the version number of the kernel you are running on your box. > Where i find the makefile(s) > what is the name of the symbolic link to change to /lib/modules/ 'uname > -r'/build . > > Found a 'vmlinuz.version.h' in my /boot > > thanks Charlie I haven't seen SuSE 7.2 yet, but what the fuzz is about, if you include header files from /usr/include{linux,asm}, then you are including them from the kernel source tree to which symlink /usr/src/linux points to. This is fine as long as you just keep one set of kernel sources. A developer will run into {confusion,trouble} if she keeps different versions of kernel trees (like 2.2.19 and 2.4.5) at the same time on the same box. /usr/src/linux usually is a link that points to a particular version (let's say /usr/src/linux-2.2.19). If you try to build against the other kernel version tree you first have to break the link and then set it to e.g. /usr/src/linux-2.4.5. > bash-2.05# make > ptal > make[1]: Entering directory `/opt/hpoj-0.7/ptal' > make[1]: Nothing to be done for `release'. > make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/hpoj-0.7/ptal' > ieee12844 > make[1]: Entering directory `/opt/hpoj-0.7/ieee12844' > gcc -O -I/opt/hpoj-0.7/include -I/opt/hpoj-0.7/ptal -I/usr/src/linux/include -I/usr/include/ucd-snmp -I/usr/lib/qt-2.3.0/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE -DEXPORT_SYMTAB -c ieee12844pp.c > In file included from ieee12844pp.c:44: > /usr/src/linux/include/linux/module.h:21: linux/modversions.h: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden > In file included from /usr/src/linux/include/linux/module.h:261, > from ieee12844pp.c:44: > /usr/include/linux/version.h:2: #error "=======================================================" > /usr/include/linux/version.h:3: #error "You should not include /usr/include/{linux,asm}/ header" > /usr/include/linux/version.h:4: #error "files directly for the compilation of kernel modules." > /usr/include/linux/version.h:5: #error "" > /usr/include/linux/version.h:6: #error "glibc now uses kernel header files from a well-defined" > /usr/include/linux/version.h:7: #error "working kernel version (as recommended by Linus Torvalds)" > /usr/include/linux/version.h:8: #error "These files are glibc internal and may not match the" > /usr/include/linux/version.h:9: #error "currently running kernel.

I would suggest that you run $ uname -r and create a symlink accordingly. E.g. in case you are running 2.2.19 you will find a directory /lib/modules/2.2.19. Below that directory create a symlink "build" with the command line $ ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.2.19 /lib/modules/2.2.19/build and then copy /boot/vmlinuz.version.h to /lib/modules/2.2.19/build/include/linux/version.h following the directions above and change the Makefile accordingly (-I/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include). Note that changing the Makefile is just a quick hack, when you run ./configure again in hopj-0.7 you will loose your changes, so be sure to edit Makefile.in as well. Note too that you don't want to hardcode the kernel version into your Makefile, that's why `uname -r` is used - it is a shell command that substitutes this construct with the result of the uname command. That way you will be using the right header files automatically whatever kernel version you are building against. I am sure, David will take care of this issue within the next release :-) BTW: In my humble opinion this fuzz is not really a great idea - it might help developers a bit, but doesn't the majority of users just run/keep one kernel on their boxes? Indirection is a great tool, but human brains tend to miss the thread when facing too much of it. BTW2: If SuSE decides to use a binutils version that requires the /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build symlink, why don't they just set it up properly? I suggest to open a call, so SuSE's software engineers learn about this particular problem. Burkhard -- Burkhard Kohl bu...@bu... |

Hallo, I changed to a 7.2 SuSE, new System and got ... see 'make.log' not knowing what's happend and not understanding the message I made hpjo-4 to hpjo-7 on kernel 2.2.7 to 2.2.16 and it worked (not too much problems). But what is 'uname -r' or better, what is it on a SuSE 7.2 ? Where i find the makefile(s) what is the name of the symbolic link to change to /lib/modules/ 'uname -r'/build . Found a 'vmlinuz.version.h' in my /boot thanks Charlie |

OK, more scanning problems. After I got xsane revived (see previous post), I grabbed a preview of a third photo. I took the master off the scanner bed to compare color and adjust the scanner settings, then hit "start scan". OOPS! I'm still holding the photo in my hand. Quickly (like a second after I hit 'scan'), I hit "cancel scan". Xsane is now locked up. The PSC's LCD still says "waiting to scan." ptal-mlcd dumped this to stdout: -------------------- llioService: llioReverseToForward failed! ptal-mlcd: ERROR at ExMgr.cpp:868, dev=<par:psc500>, pid=25968, errno=11 exClose(reason=0x0010) ptal-mlcd: ERROR at ParPort.cpp:163, dev=<par:psc500>, pid=25968, errno=11 statusWaitSetClear(event=49) timed out! ptal-mlcd: ERROR at ParPort.cpp:163, dev=<par:psc500>, pid=25968, errno=11 statusWaitSetClear(event=23) timed out! -------------------- and this to syslog: -------------------- Jun 23 00:42:58 tatooine ptal-mlcd: ptal-mlcd: ERROR at ParPort.cpp:705, dev=<p ar:psc500>, pid=25968, errno=11 readEcpByte: received ECP command=0xFF!

It happens after I successfully scan one photo. When I want to scan another photo at a different orientation (horz vs vert), I hit the magnifier-undo, then the magnifier-minus (zoom out), then hit "acquire preview". It scans virtually the entire image, then locks up xsane. After a few minutes, the PSC makes a noise, then prints the LCD message "Power system failure. Turn power off then on again." Still no response from xsane. No cron jobs this time. The stack trace isn't very useful, since it wasn't compiled with -g. tatooine:/usr/local/build/hpoj/mlcd# gdb ptal-mlcd 25968 GNU gdb 5.0 Copyright 2000 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

A problem like this could either be an xsane bug, an HP backend bug, or a scanner bug. If you can figure out a way to reproduce it then I'll look into it. Since Oliver Rauch (the xsane developer) makes frequent updates, you should make sure you're running the latest version, just in case that has anything to do with it. You could also try "xscanimage" and see if it acts strangely too. > I also had sane lock up on me while scanning. I was getting a preview > scan of the entire bed after putting in a new photo.

If the lockup happened right when the cron job started, then I suspect it's more than coincidence, because ptal-mlcd does its parallel-port signalling in user mode and could theoretically be affected if it's starved for CPU time. If this happens again, it would be helpful if you could attach gdb to the running(?) ptal-mlcd process and get a stack trace ("bt" I think) to see what it's blocked on. Note that when you attach gdb to a running process like this, the process will be suspended until you exit gdb or issue the "continue" (I think) command. > When attempting to restart xsane, it brought up the "scanning for > devices" window and hung.

I've thought about that, but the problem is that there may be situations, such as a "kill -9", where it's not possible to log a message. ptal-mlcd logs a message when it hits a "fatal error", so the only remaining situations I can think of without a log message are where it segfaults or you kill it. > Upon restarting xsane, I see that the vertical ruler is now correct. > Hmmm...

If you tried to install the ghostscript-hpijs RPM onto Debian through alien, then that could be a problem. In situations where binaries aren't available for your specific distribution, then you'd probably be better off building hpinkjet from source. Note that hpinkjet doesn't currently support duplex printing. If that's what you're looking for, then you could try the "cdj970" driver mentioned on http://www.linuxprinting.org. David |

> Scanning with SANE is not yet supported on this model, but it's on my TODO > list. So, David, are you the sane owner, too? If so, I just noticed a couple problems tonight. First, with xsane, the size rulers along the top & left of the preview window don't seem to mesh. When set to inches, the top seems OK, but the side is garbage. The numbers are roughly 1.5 X too high. I also had sane lock up on me while scanning. I was getting a preview scan of the entire bed after putting in a new photo. It had scanned almost the entire thing, when it just stopped. XSane wouldn't refresh its windows. There were no syslog messages & nothing to stdout/stderr. After a minute or two, the scanner light returned to home, but still no refresh from xsane. This happened just as cron launched a very large tar followed by gzip, but that may be coincidence. When attempting to restart xsane, it brought up the "scanning for devices" window and hung. I had to kill -9 xsane. I stopped & restarted the ptal brothers. I then noticed my PSC 500's LCD said "Scanner system failure. Turn system off and on again," which I did. That all seemed to fix the problem. Still no log entries other than the startup banners.

I joined it on my own initiative as a side project on my own time, because I recognized that there was an unmet need for this level of support. Gradually I have gotten more and more support from HP management, to the point where this project is now an official part of my job description. I'm glad that this project has been well-received by many people in the community, and I've certainly enjoyed being a part of it. > I recently built (from source) the ptal, hpoj, sane and xsane software > on my Debian 2.2 (Potato) system, as the available .deb required a few > upgrades: ... > Now, the "hpo" command works fine, but the test scan command hangs.

Scanning with SANE is not yet supported on this model, but it's on my TODO list. In the meantime, you can scan using the "ptal-hp" command-line utility, which is available with the development code in CVS (not 0.7) and will go into the next stable release (0.8, probably sometime in August). For more information, see "http://hpoj.sourceforge.net/hpoj-cvs/SCAN-HOWTO", but don't pay any attention to the part that talks about SANE. David |

Folk, I have an HP Officejet 635. Last December I spoke with Mary Kumar, whose daughter worked with us over summer. Mary is head of Support for HP Corporate. I worked previously with her in HP's Australian Software Operation. Anyhow, she said she'd been asked to radically revamp HP's support practises and asked if I had any input. I said yes, I have a nice OJ635 but no Linux drivers - why doesn't HP provide support for the open source community? Anyhow, I don't know if that's what changed things, but I'm glad they have changed! I recently built (from source) the ptal, hpoj, sane and xsane software on my Debian 2.2 (Potato) system, as the available .deb required a few upgrades: (Reading database ... 24449 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace xsane 0.70-1 (using xsane_0.70-1_i386.deb) ...

Hi, Joe. I figured out what the problem is and checked in a fix. Let me know if you still see error messages like this, although I removed the second one since it's no longer needed. The activation above would have occurred due to any attempted access to the peripheral, which includes running xojpanel, setting the clock, or other uses of the hpoj software that one might not consider "active use" of the peripheral.

Hello, you are right David. Scanning on my HP OfficeJet 710 is only possible up to 300 dpi. I was wrong because the default resolution is below 300 dpi and it seems that the driver interprets all higher resolutions (e.g. 600 dpi) as 300 dpi. I will come back periodically to see what's with SANE. But in the meantime scanning from the commandline is enough for me. Thanks: Rainer Lehrig |
