Hi guys,
I am trying to get my HP Deskjet 710C working with my Debian testing
computer. And I am struggling. I managed to get the computer set up
in CUPS via the http admin, but it does not want to print a test page
and I can't get anything to the printer.
Here's the error message I received when I tried to use HPOJ:
QUOTE
Probe for parallel-connected devices ([y]/n)? y
Successfully loaded kernel module "lp" for the device probe.
Warning: Probing incorrect I/O port addresses could result in system
instability and/or data loss! Consult your hardware documentation, BIOS
setup and/or kernel messages to verify correct base addresses in the
following prompts. Also, take care not to probe parallel ports that
have non-printer devices (such as disk or tape drives) connected.
Probe parallel port "-base 0x378 -basehigh 0x778 -device /dev/lp0" (y/[n])? y
*** Found "DESKJET 710C" but failed to communicate with it!
*** Elapsed time for this attempt was 1 second(s).
*** Check syslog file for ptal-mlcd error messages.
*** See hpoj documentation for troubleshooting information.
Press <Enter> alone to continue, or if you would like to probe an
undetected parallel port, then enter its hexadecimal base address
(such as "378", "278", or "3BC") here --->
