configuring hp deskjet 3535 with puppy 2.12 live cd
you need to dload the .ppd file for your printer from here:
http://openprinting.org/ppd-o-matic.cgi ... 535&show=0
& save the file to your /root directory. then dload & install cups from here:
http://puppyfiles.org/dotpupsde/dotpups ... l-v0.3.pup
then cups will "grab" your .ppd file & a window will open with info on how to add your printer to cups. in case it doesn't work first time, don't delete the cups .pup file as it's an 18M dload.

Hi, thanks for answerig my problem. Please be patient beacause I m gona need more than a little help here. I downloaded both archives acording to you cups-install v0.3.zip and hp deskjet 3535 hpijs.ppd. They were copied to /root. Then I unzip cups and I extracted all the files to /root too. The I don t know What to. Sorry for being so silly.
If you could detail me a little more I would be very thankfull.

Anyway I´m very happy for this achivement and very thakfull for your help.

you could probably get the printer working for the lexmark, but i don't know about the scanning side. openprinting.org suggests using the lexmark z600 driver for the X1195. it's a bit more involved than with your HP. see here for more info:

Somewhere on your desktop (most likely at the top or down the right hand side) there will be an icon named something similar to "rxvt", "terminal", "xterm" or "console". This icon usually looks like a flat-screen monitor. When you click on this icon a mostly blank window withguille28 wrote:There are, like many other links you passed me, many codes that I don´t know Where type them.

Linux = Learning through doing :shock: :? :D
The learning curve may be steep but there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
You just have to pass the occasional oncoming train to get there.
