The command I used was pr, and  I used it from my

I don't have any knowledge of the 1150C. I don't normally need to look at the
panel on my 600. What was the print command you were using, and where were you
trying to print from?

It sounds like ghostscript had a problem with either the command you entered or
possibly something about gamma.ps. Could you post the exact contents of your
gamma.ps?

First, start printtool see if any settings should be corrected. It may be that
printtool changed one or more of your driver settings when you added the extra
gs option.

If you still have trouble, can you post the relevant section of
your /etc/printcap file and the contents of the postscript.cfg file that is in
the spool directory for the driver you're using? You can use a text editor to
open postcript.cfg.

[hpoj-devel] patches for 2.4 kernel

[Nicholas N. <nj...@te...>]

Hi all. I am interested in getting my HP Officejet 600
working under Linux. I am currently running kernel version 2.4.0-test8.
I found some patches against hpoj-0.6 for 2.4 
support in the mailing list archive but I don't seem to be 
able to get them in a form suitable for applying. I tried 
using print from the geocrawler archive page and then saving
the result but it doesn't apply cleanly.
Could someone please email me the latest patches or perhaps point
to me somewhere I could download them from.

Thanks, Nick.

[hpoj-devel] connecting to printer through SMB

[Barry D. <bar...@ho...>]

Hi,

I have just set up samba on linux to access my windows 98 pc files.

I have an OfficeJet R45 on the windows pc which is shared, and I wondered if 
I can use the HPOJ driver to print to it (or maybe even scan?) or must it be 
physically connected to the linux pc?

I know very little about linux and less about setting up printers on it so 
apologies if this is a stupid question and please don't assume any knowledge 
in any answers you give.

Thanks a lot,
Barry.

Re: [hpoj-devel] Printing was too dark

[<mab...@ya...>]

Hi again:

I created and saved the file gamma.ps as you indicated
in the e-mail. Also, I entered the extra gs option...
you wrote.

When I sent the file to print, and started to print, I
saw the HP 1150C panel and it said more or less.
"Normal printing". (I said: YES!)

However, the printer continued and it printed the
following message in stair-stepping text:

Error: /undefinedfilename in (gs)
                                 Operand stack:
                                              
Execution stack:
                %interp_exit

After this, the printer printed the file I sent, but
it also was too dark. I saw the HP 1150C panel and it
had the "Quality" option.

Any idea about it?

Thanks in advanced.

Marco Becerril

Marco -

"gamma.ps" is a text file that you create.

To use gamma.ps, create and save the file first, then change your driver
settings in printtool.

To create the file:
Copy the part between the lines below to a text file and save it as 
/usr/local/etc/gamma.ps

Note: In case the lines wrap, there are only two lines
of text in this version of the file. The second line starts with the
first "{0.333 exp}" and ends with "setcolortransfer".


cut-------------------------------------------

%! 
{0.333 exp} {0.333 exp} {0.333 exp} {0.333 exp} currenttransfer
setcolortransfer 

cut-------------------------------------------


Setting ownership and permissions for gamma.ps:
]$ su
give root password

cd /usr/local/etc
chown root:root gamma.ps
chmod 644 gamma.ps


Changing your printtool settings:
In printtool, there is a line marked "Extra gs options".
You will find that by clicking on your printer driver name, then clicking edit,
then click select. Enter this on the 'extra gs options' line:

"gs /usr/local/etc/gamma.ps" (without the quotes).

Make sure printtool doesn't change any of your other settings.

After all this, restart lpd using the printtool menu item.  You don't need to
restart lpd if you are only modifying 'gamma.ps'.

I hope this fixes it for you. Please let us know how well it works.

I also collected debug output setting LINEBUF on.  This seemed to fix those
problems, but also seemed to lose some mlc output.  I'll send that tonight. 
It looks very similar.

This was the first thing I tried, although I didn't go to 5000 or 10000.  I
think I just tried 1500 (I multiplied all the timeout constants by 3).  I'll
try again with higher values and see what I come up with.

I'll try it.

Hi, Daniel.  Thanks for getting me the debug output.  Unfortunately there
was a gap right at the place where it became interesting (where it changes
from event9/get_nibble/event11/event6 to mlcpp_intr).  If you happened to
save other debug logs (or if you try this again), could you check to see if
any of the other logs show this transition better?  If you see a line such
as "get_nibble(c60b_intr c60b1160", that is a sign of a gap.

It occurred to me that after we set event 7 or 12 (nAutoFd=0) in get_nibble,
perhaps the peripheral doesn't respond with event 9 (nAck=0) until after we
drop out of the poll loop contained within the PAR_WAIT_SET_CLEAR macro.
I don't know how long it is until mlcpp_intr gets called again to retry the
poll loop, but perhaps the peripheral times out in the meantime and backs
out of event 9, such that we time out for event 9.  To test this theory,
please try increasing the value of SHORT_WAIT, which is currently 500
iterations of the loop in PAR_WAIT_SET_CLEAR.  I'm not sure what would be a
better value, but you could experiment with several, such as 5000 or 10000.
If it's too large you may start to notice that your machine gets sluggish
due to spending a lot of time in kernel mode.

Another interesting test would be to log the return code of parStatusRead()
right before setting event 7/12, and again after "SET_STATE(l,9,BUSY_TIME);"
but before "PAR_WAIT_SET_CLEAR(l,0,PAR_STATUS_NACK);".  Any status line
changes after event 7/12 might further suggest a peripheral-side timeout.

The stair-step effect happens because dos/windows and UNIX/Linux handle newlines
differently. 'printtool' has a checkbox that will correct this. It's labeled
"Fix stair-stepping text".

"wrapfilter" is a shell script that you create with any plain-text editor. vi
should work. I like kwrite. The commands in the file aren't meant to be entered
at the command line.

When you create the file, save it in the directory that you are using as a
spool directory for the hpoj driver. It will probably be a subdirectory under
/var/spool/lpd

Don't leave this line as it is unless "lp0" is the spool directory you are
using for this driver:
 QUEUEDIR=/var/spool/lpd/lp0
If you are using another spool directory, change "lp0" to the name of the
directory you are using. I like to use a more descriptively named directory.
That's why I chose HPOJ_DRVR. You don't have to use that name, though.

Set the ownership and permissions of wrapfilter:

]$ su
give root password

cd (the directory where wrapfilter is located)
chmod 755 wrapfilter
chown root:root wrapfilter

[hpoj-devel] Printer driver installation problems

[<mab...@ya...>]

Hi again:

I think I am at the end of the configuration-
installation of this OfficeJet driver.

However I need your help.

1. I checked the following in the step "Loading the
parallel port drivers (notes and troubleshooting":

# cat ../ANNOUNCE | /opt/hpoj-0.6/scripts/addcr >
/dev/lp0

and the printer exhibited the "stair-step" effect.
Is it a normal situation? (The Install notes say that
"addcr" script may help).

2. I wrote the following command:
# /usr/local/bin/hpo get OID_CFG_STATUS

and I received the message:
Error while executing request: 0x83
<Error Unknown Object Identifier>

Then, I asked some help to the computer:
# hpo --help

and it said: get <object id>

What was the correspondig id?

3. I read the mail: "Printing in RedHat Was..."
written by Joe Piolunek, because I installed RedHat in
my computer.

I achieved all the steps, except the following
instructions:
#!/bin/sh
The computer answer:
bash: !/bin/sh: event not found

Also I tried:
# sh filename: /var/spool/lpd/HPOJ_DRV/wrapfilter
and I received another error message.

Note: I know the "!" character is employed to use a
command again with a specific model.

I suppose these 2 comands
QUEUEDIR=....
IEEE12844DIR=....

must be written inside the file wrapfilter. Is it
correct? May I use vi?

Where do I write the last command:
${QUEUEDIR}/filter...?

Really, sorry for this last question, but remember I
am a beginning with Linux and Unix.

Thanks in advanced.

Yes, it is completely different, and due to the lack of leverage and

from this one.

I can't vouch for other brands, but my suggestions would be either the
OfficeJet G series, K series, or the LaserJet 3200, which was just announced
on Monday.  Despite its resemblance to its unsupported predecessors, the 3200
uses the same protocols as the other supported HP MFPs, and after doing some
testing with hpoj I updated the list of supported devices
(http://hpoj.sourceforge.net/suplist.shtml) to reflect that.  Note that
scanning is not yet supported on the class of devices including the 3200,
but I'm working on that.

Sorry, that really should read "When prompted, enter the root password.".
"su" takes a username as its argument, and defaults to root if none is
given.

That's what was intended, although just typing "su" has the same effect.

So far, so good.  :-)

Although the source code lives in the "cmdline" directory in the package,
it is compiled into the command "hpo", which you tried next...

The problem is that the binaries are installed in /usr/local/bin, which
isn't in your PATH.  Try logging in as a normal user, not root.  I think
by default RedHat doesn't put /usr/local/bin in the PATH when you log in
as root.  You could also just try specifying the full path.  For example,
instead of "hpo devid", try typing "/usr/local/bin/hpo devid".

I supposed I installed succesfully the printer driver,
because I received the following message after the

However, I continued with the step "Use included

What is wrong?

Hi:

The echo variable has the following:

I installed the RPM you told me.

I achieved the "Build process" succesfully, however I
have a doubt:

In your install notes you say:
su     # Enter the root password.

I wrote:
# su my_password_root

(where my_password_root is my respective password)

and the computer answered:
# su: user my_password_root does not exist

Then I wrote:
# su root
and the computer did not send a message.

Is it a problem?

Daniel, could you please try out different debugging levels for ieee12844.o?
That way we might have a chance to narrow down the problem. This module
uses some weird combinations of 0x01, 0x02, 0x04 and 0x05 debug values 
with 0x02 being the most common. Which values do hang the module? What
about turning on debugging on the ieee12844pp module. If you have some
debug output which you think might be hintful (is that an english word?)
please send it to my private mail address (and maybe damcha's - is that
ok?).

Another point. Under some circumstances (2.4) I have an extreme latency
before scanning starts - did you ever tried waiting for 30 secs?

Well, I think you could also have asked it on the mailing
list, because there are a lot more people who can answer
your question, maybe from different points of view and with
another knowledge level than me :-)

Unfortunately it is very difficult to get documentation from
HP about the protocols used with their printers. As far as I 
remember, the 3100/3150 use a different protocol (not MLC) than
the other printers, and our driver is currently limited to
MLC. Maybe, some time, someone will start hacking the protocol
used with thw 3100/3150, but unfortunately currently we can 
not support it. Maybe a completely new driver must be written.

Regards

Re: [hpoj-devel] configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH

[Gregory A. <ga...@ne...>]

You don't have a C compiler installed on your system.  Use either
Kpackage or Gnorpm to install gcc.

Hi, Marco.  For RedHat 6.2, make sure you have the "egcs" and "egcs-c++"
packages installed.  These provide the necessary "gcc" and "g++" compilers
required to build the hpoj software.

What is the setting of your PATH environment variable anyway?  Type
"echo $PATH" to find out.

[hpoj-devel] configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH

[<mab...@ya...>]

Hello everybody:

Firstable, thank you for this HP OfficeJet "driver". I
think that all the HP OfficeJet Linux community is
glad and happy, because we can print and scan in Linux
with this kind of printer. Congratulations to you and
all your team.

I am a beginner. I have an OfficeJet Pro 1150C printer
and obviously, I want to print and scan with Linux.

I have Linux with Red Hat 6.2.

I followed the install instructions, so I ran the
first command ./configure and I received the following
messages:

# ./configure
loading cache ./config.cache
checking operating system... Linux
checking for Linux kernel source...
/usr/src/linux-2.2.14
checking for SNMP... /usr/include/ucd-snmp
checking for QT... /usr/lib/qt-2.1.0
checking for gcc... no
checking for cc... no
configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH

As you can see, the last 3 lines have errors.

I suppose theses errors have a relationship with
$PATH.

Can you help me in this matter?

Regards.

Marco Becerril

With 2.4 kernels the probe function went into the lowlevel parport
module (i.e. parport_pc). The parport_probe module no longer exists.
At the moment the modules have to be loaded by hand. I hope this will 
be resolved with the use of the new parport_register_driver interface.
For now you have to load parport, parport_pc, ieee12844 and ieee12844pp
manually - using this sequence.
