[hpoj-devel] HP OfficeJet G85 and PLC5

[Jens L. <jen...@go...>]

Hi,

recently I bought a new WLAN router, which has an integrated printserver
(US Robotics USR029108). The printserver simply does not work although
everything else is normal, i.e. no error messages or strange behaviour.
After some discussions with the US Robotics support they suppose that
the problem is that the printer (a HP OfficeJet G85) only supports PLC3,
but the printserver needs support for PLC5. Is there anything I can do
about that, i.e. are there any updates for the printer? Or is there any
other solution?

I'd be glad to get some help, because I didn't actually find a lot of
useful information about this topic, so I thought it might be a good
idea to ask the experts. :-)

Currently I use hpoj 0.91 on Debian 3.1 and have no printing problems
except the one described above. (I know that there is hplip, but as long
as the printserver does not work I still use the parallel port.)
