[hpoj-devel] Problems with PSC1350 and REDHAT

[Joao P. S. <jp...@if...>]

Hi there,

I am just starting to use Linux in my desktop, and decided to give a try with 
REDHAT 9. The installation was really smoth, and I got almost all working 
except the printer (at am stucked at this point). 

I have a HP PSC 1350 Multifunctional. After a quick research over the web, I 
found some instructions on how to proceed with this printer and Linux using 
the hpijs drivers. I followed the instructions carefully with hpijs 1.6:

1) Have the tar driver downloaded
2) untared driver 
3) move to untared directory (hpijs-1.6)
4) run ./configure from prompt
5) run make
6) login as su
7) run make install
8) verified intallation with hpijs -h

After that I tryed to add the printer. The system identified correctly my 
printer (hp 1300 series appears beside the printer mounting path) but when I 
try to select the right Printer from teh HP list, the printer is missing!

Some could shine some light on his subject? Am I doing something wrong?
I just want to add that I am completely new to Linux, and have almost not any 
idea of any line commands, file structures, etc, etc. Sorry for the lousy 
English to.. 

Thanks,

J.Paulo Sinnecker
