Re: [hpoj-devel] OfficeJet 4100 - can't get this printer to work with HPOJ 0.91

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

Can you check the CUPS logs and and dmesg and tell me if you get any
error messages there? Also, after you run Ptal-init, how are you then
setting up the device? 

Another thing you might want to do, is start fresh again. Remove all the
hpoj stuff. Restart CUPS. Upgrade hpijs with the tar ball. Then install
the hpoj-0.91 tar ball (not CVS, even though they should be exactly the
same). Restart CUPS with #killall cupsd -HUP and then use the web
interface (http://localhost:631) to setup your device...
