I just got a PSC2410 - and the installation instructions are limited to Macintosh and Windoze -which wouldn't concern me that much except where it states "Do not connect until instructed" respectively I am prompted by the installation SW - which obviously isn't possible on my Linux (Mandrake 10) machine. Can I safely ignore these instructions or is there some magic to be performed to make this work? I.e printing and scanning. Regards, Tom Heynemann |

I.e printing and scanning. They are safe to ignore. You have to plug it in before you can start to configure it. David -- This sentence contradicts itself -- no actually it doesn't. |

A icon appears on my Linspire machines deskop for my 2355. Labeled USB Mass Storage device. It could be Mandrake and not the printer.

In Mdk simply plug it in, turn it on, and after that run "printerdrake" or choose the printing section of the Mandrakelinux Control Center. The print queue will then be created automatically and all software for printing and scanning will be installed (have the installation CDs handy). Memory card access should be possible via USB mass storage.

Somewhere I'm missing something. I can scan, but can't print. Running RedHat 9.0. Printer is HP PSC1210 and I had previously set it up on another older and slower RH 9 system and it printed and scanned. installed libusb-0.1.6-3 installed libusb-devel-0.1.6-3 installed hpijs-1.6.1-1 installed hpoj-0.91-1 as root, /usr/local/sbin/ptal-init setup in cups (http://localhost:631) select "add a printer" and select the device: [betty@betty log]$ ptal-device mlc:usb:psc1200 [betty@betty log]$ ptal-devid MFG:Hewlett-Packard;MDL:psc 1200 series;CMD:LDL,MLC,PML,DYN;CLS:PRINTER;1284.4DL:4d,4e,1;SN:CN42QG301Y5H;S:0380008000820000002c1481061c 2501061; [betty@betty log]$ ptal-print `ptal-device` </dev/null ptal-print: connecting to device "mlc:usb:psc1200"... successful.
