Mark - I've gone through and run the commands you suggested. I have put my results after your suggestions.

That file doesn't exist. I have no hpoj directory in /usr/share/doc, though I am told that hpoj is installed. >msp@debian:~$ scanimage --list-devices >device `hpoj:mlc:usb:psc_1200_series' is a Hewlett-Packard psc 1200 series >multi-function peripheral > > device `hpaio:/usb/psc_1200_series?serial=<serial #>' is a hp psc_1200_series multi-function peripheral >msp@debian:~$ dpkg -l hpoj >Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold >| Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed >|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: >uppercase=bad) >||/ Name Version Description >+++-=========================-=========================-================================================================== >ii hpoj 0.91-4 HP OfficeJet Linux >driver (hpoj) > > rc hpoj 0.91-4 HP OfficeJet Linux driver (hpoj) >Mark > > >------------------------------------------------------- >SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO >September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices >Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA >Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf > >_______________________________________________ >hpoj-devel mailing list >hpo...@li... >https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/hpoj-devel > > I hope that this helps. I do have a question regarding hpoj, however. When I run the commands you suggest I am given a version number, but when I look at uninstalled packages under aptitude, hpoj 0.91-4 is listed as not installed. I have been hesitant to install it because doing so uninstalls hplip. Thanks again! Ron Crummett |
