[hpoj-devel] Re: ptal-init start

[russbucket <rus...@ce...>]

I finally got my HP OfficeJet G55 working by installing the latest HPOJ
V.91. I am on Suse Linux 9.0. Had alot of help in another news group. One
thing they told me was to make sure that Ptal starts up before CUPS. The seq
on my system is the HP Driver starts, then the usb and finally CUPS. Don't
no if this will help. I also completely deinstalled the HP Printer before
installing HPOJ. Don't know if this will give you any new info. I'm very new
to Linux and fought my printer problem for several weeks. I did install the
newer version over the old one.

[hpoj-devel] HPOJ can't find OfficeJet V40

[Der B. <der...@ho...>]

Hello,

I recently purchased a OfficeJet V40 (USB). The device is correctly listed 
in /proc/bus/usb/devices, but when I run "ptal-init setup", it finds no 
device. The probe for /dev/usb/lp0 takes about 15 seconds; the ones after 
that takes less than one second each. None of the probes is successful.
The computer that the OfficeJet is connected to is running Debian Woody and 
the 2.6.5 kernel. The version of HPOJ is 0.8-11. Here are the first few 
lines from syslog after invoking ptal-init:

Apr 30 18:24:24 playa ptal-mlcd: SYSLOG at ExMgr.cpp:660, dev=<usb:probe>,

Should I try:

- going back from kernel 2.6.5 to 2.6.2 since the latest kernels seem to 
have USB issues, or

First of all, I don't think the scan area was Letter before, it was an
offset bug (I believe), and the scanned area looked like if it were
scanning Letter size paper.

I believe you need to read the manual of the scanner software
(i.e. kooka) :-)

I have had much trouble with using faxes on Linux.
I finally had some good results with efax + xsane + kfax
xsane seems to be the only scanning interface which can easily scan + send =
fax=20
(even multipages faxes). Kooka is completely broken for this purpose and=20
xscanimage has no fax capabilities. OpenOffice.org does not work for scanni=
ng=20
in writer at this moment. Hope it will be fixed some day !
efax is much more simple than hylafax, which asks you numerous silly questi=

for configuring.

I'd like kooka could be improved some day, but no sign of activity now.

[hpoj-devel] Problems with PSC 2210 mostly solved by upgrading hpoj to 0.91

[Michal K. <M.K...@el...>]

hello,
About two weeks ago I wrote to this mailing list about problems I had with
my PSC 2210 when scanning while hpoj 0.90 was used. The problems included
the whole scan area always being Letter sized (while the scanner is also
supposed to be able to scan an A4 page) and the area actually being
scanned being not exactly the same as the area selected for scanning in
the scan preview window.
I was suggested to upgrade hpoj to 0.91, but was unable to check if it
solved these problems until now.
So now I installed and compiled hpoj 0.91 and indeed the scanning area is
now A4. Just out of curiousity, what would I need to do to set the scan
area back to Letter size if I ever needed to ? (I hope it's possible
without having to modify the sources and recompile)
It also seems that problems with the area actually scanned being different
than the area selected in the scan preview are mostly fixed. At this
moment the actual scan area seems to be shifted about 0.5 cm down relative
to what was selected in the scan preview (at least with kooka), but this
is already much better than what I had with hpoj 0.90.
Thank you for all your help.

[hpoj-devel] What would it take to support PC fax?

[Gregor H. <gr...@ho...>]

Hi,

as far as I can see, development of hpof has stalled with PC fax
capabilities for most devices being unimplemented (i.e. "PC fax send:
not yet" and "PC fax receive: no or not yet").


Now what would you suggest me: I'd love to have a fax device which is
able to operate standalone (sending faxes without the computer, and
receiving faxes for immediate printout). That's what an OfficeJet is
supposed to do, right?

But additionally, I'd like to be able to *send* faxes from a Linux
workstation (the one the OfficeJet would be connected to), and, perhaps
even more important: I'd like to be able to *receive* faxes on the Linux
workstation. Whereas receiving faxes on the Linux system would mean that
the OfficeJet should receive and store the faxes (even without the Linux
system running), and that I should be able to retrieve the faxes from
the OfficeJet. That's what *I* would expect an all-in-one device being
able to do ;-)


But, as far as I can see, there's no single all-in-one device on the
market (HP, Epson, Canon whoever) that works as standalone fax machine,
as fax memory and as fax modem--not in Windows and even more not in
Linux.


So do you have any suggestions for me? Should I buy both an all-in-one
device *and* a fax modem with memory, should I save the money for the
all-in-one, and better just buy a fax modem and a cheap scanner and
(photo;-) printer?

Or is there any better solution? How much work would it be to fill in
the fax gaps from the hpoj TODO list? Would it pay off?

If I should go with the fax modem, what kind of fax modem with
standalone memory could you suggest me? (The cheaper the better ;-)

Oh yes, I will only rarely use the fax functions at all.

Thanks,
    Gregor

The patch is still needed, it only makes the startup script of HPOJ also 
working with the new name "usblp" of the USB printer kernel module 
("printer" in 2.4). After applying the patch, HPOJ 0.91 works with both 
2.4.x and 2.6.x kernels.

Re: [hpoj-devel] Printing Empty Pages FIXED

[Luke J. <lu...@jo...>]

It might have been that problem - I didn't get a chance to check because I 
resolved the problem before I read this.  I simply upgraded my kernel to 
2.6.5 and now printing works.  Probably still needed that 
"hpoj-0.91-kernel26.patch" that I applied to hpoj-0.91.

So basically 2.6.3 & 2.6.4 spit out blank pages (because of usblp.c?).  I 
won't be staying subscribed to this mailing list so could those who are 
please pass on this kernel versioning advice to others who come across this 
blank-pages problem... or maybe it could be posted on the hpoj website?  
Thanks!

[hpoj-devel] Still having problems with ptal-init & G55...

[Roberto S. <kos...@gi...>]

Hello, I am truly sorry to raise this problem again.

	Unfortunately I am still not able to use my G55 on a USB port,
even after having tried some of the solutions discussed in previous  
posts.

I have installed on my Mandrake system:

 - kernel 2.6.5 (custom compiled because of the dpt_i2o module which is
		still missing in Mandrake 10.0 distribution)
 - hpoj-0.91-4mdk (0.91-4mdk has the patch for 2.6.x installed)
 - libhpojip0-0.91-4.mdk
 - libhpojip0-devel-0.91-4.mdk
 - libsane-hpoj1-0.91-4.mdk
 - libusb0.1_4-0.1.7-1mdk
 - libusb0.1_4-devel-0.1.7-1mdk

I also added a symlink as suggested in a previous post
on the subject, so I have:

/dev/ptal-mlcd -> /var/run/ptal-mlcd/
/dev/ptal-printd -> /var/run/ptal-printd/

While the G55 is nicely seen by the usb utilities, ptal-init finds it
but it goes in time out.. and so it does not allow to configure the  
G55.

The only errors I found in syslog are given by devfsd (I have
devfsd-1.3.25-37mdk).

I acclude some logs below.

I am just a typical user with no more clues about, so is there
any suggestion for further action/patches/tricks ???

Thanks a lot,

kosmobob

Re: [hpoj-devel] Printing Empty Pages

[Luke J. <lu...@jo...>]

I read that LinuxPrinting.org webpage a long long time ago and followed the 
directions there (this is the second time I'm setting this printer up - on a 
new machine now), and I just read that page again over the past couple days 
trying to solve my problem.  Unfortunately neither it, or a google search for 
"hpoj PSC 1210", nor the hpoj documentation comes up with any information 
pertaining to my problem - printing empty pages.  I am asking specifically 
about this issue and the kernel patch I've read about to resolve it - I've 
done many google searches for that and not come up with many links to 
patches, only talk of them existing

This mailing list does not have a search feature that I can find 
unfortunately.

There are later versions of both.  Probably won't matter to your problem,

[hpoj-devel] Printing Empty Pages

[Luke J. <lu...@jo...>]

Hello,

	I have a HP PSC 1210 model and am having a printing problem.  The 
configuration, communication, and scanning seems to work well.  When I go to 
print a test page through CUPS or try to print anything the printer just 
feeds paper in and then immediately spits it out blank.  The printer keeps 
doing this until the paper tray is empty and never actually prints anything.

I heard this was a linux kernel 2.6 issue and have read somewhere of a patch?  
I have kernel 2.6.4 and am having trouble finding this patch (shouldn't it be 
posted on the hpoj web page? Can't find it!)  I'm also confused as to whether 
this is a kernel patch or a hpoj patch?  I did manage to find a hpoj patch 
called "hpoj-0.91-kernel26.patch" - I applied it to hpoj-0.91 but it didn't 
fix the problem.  I found this patch here:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42921

Is there a kernel patch?  How does one go about fixing this?  I also tried 
using hpoj-CVS but that didn't help either.  Downgrading this kernel is not 
an option (at least not down to 2.4).  Can anybody help me out or point me in 
the right direction?

My specifications:

Slackware Linux 9.1
Kernel 2.6.4
HPOJ 0.91
hpijs 1.4.1
CUPS 1.1.19

Re: [hpoj-devel] HP 3030

[Cory M. <cor...@hp...>]

Hi,
	Yes this printer is supported by hpoj. hpoj manages the connection to
the printer so that it can take advantage of the other devices like the
scanner. Therefore, when creating a print queue, you must use the ptal
port instead of the network or USB.
	Please see this link for driver information:

[hpoj-devel] HP 3030

[Tamas S. <to...@ru...>]

Hello,

I'm just a newbie of these MFPs, so I'd like to know that is the HP 3030
is supported by the hpoj package, because I didn't found it on the list of
supported devices.

I asked the HP so they told me that HP 3030 has TWAIN 1.9 while 3200 has
1.7 and 3300 has 1.9 what are supported now. Of course, this related to
the scanning, IMHO the postscript cannot change. :)

Am I right? Can I use 3030 with my linux box?

Thanks,

Fair enough answer I suppose, and I am certainly
grateful that HP has put any resources into this at
all given the non-M$ OS market penetration.

	This is a generic question for any OSS project. Therefore, I will give
you the SOSA (standard open source answer). The advantages of OSS is
that you can download and change the software for your peticular needs.
You don't have to follow what the project team is doing, you can do it
for yourself. All other standard answers apply. You need a solution to
your specific circumstance. Feel free to use and modify our software.

	More generically, this should be "the Open Source Community" but we are
called the Linux team here, so I generally say Linux. However, if there
is interest, I will be happy to test on the BSD platform. Our hpijs has
even been ported to the AmigaOS platform as part of our "no user left
behind" program ;-)

	Sorry that I have not responded to this sooner. We have heard your
requests but were unable to respond until now. There is another solution
currently under development that will replace the current hpoj
implementation. However, until that time, hpoj should suffice for the
majority of users, as it does support most AiO devices and will support
the products coming out this Summer and Fall. 
	There will be drawer statement here soon that will clearly state HP's
intentions and commitment to the Linux community.

And you addressed the ... part, but not this part.  Later, in a different
thread, you made mention that the next hpoj version would be
desktop-neutral, which circumspectly addresses the question(s) above.

There have been recurring questions along this line over the last few
months.

Are you able to discourse a little on the topic of hpoj's future and
HP's level of continued interest?  If you could, believe this would serve
a couple purposes:

(a)  Keep the interest of those who may be interested in contributing.
(b)  Keep the faith of those who may be running across hpoj for the first
     time via the list, and be considering getting/using an HP device
     with linux, but likewise be concerned by seeing such questions being
     asked and not necessarily answered.

Also, if you could, possibly address the other question about "no new
news", which is another indicator people look at when deciding on
hardware and software solutions.

thanks for the hints, you think implementing USB support for FreeBSD is 
difficult? I don't have much time atm, but maybe I can contribute to this (as 
hinted in my first email).

You have any directions/suggestions where to start (both in terms of 
documentation and source code). Something straight forward would be good, as 
my time is limited.
