Hi exProphecy,
please try:
1. Switch off and switch on your printer. Check if it appears in cups. In case not,
2. Restart cups doing:
Code:
/etc/init.d/cups reload
/etc/init.d/cups restart

and recheck cups.
I hope that helps.

Well, restarting CUPS won't help because the problem is not detecting the printer in my network. The problem is detecting the DRIVER for the printer. It seems that the printer model/driver for my HP PSC1315xi ALL-IN-ONE is not here. It's odd though because I installed hpijs just for kicks and I saw the HPPSC1310 driver WHICH does work for 1315xi. So how come the HPLIP package, which is supposedly supposed to have all the driver that HPIJS should have, does not have my driver?

The hp-psc_1310_series-hpijs.ppd.gz driver is included in hpliplite (just rechecked!). Look at /usr/share/ppd/HP
Bizarre...

HUH that is quite odd. I redownloaded the hpliplite package and when I was installing it, the licensing window popped up. It never popped up before.. weird? I suppose the first download was corrupted? Anyways, yea after redownloading and reinstalling the .pet, I was able to find the driver you mentioned. Anyways, thanks a bunch!

Uhm.. wait, okay I was able to find the hp-psc_1310_series-hpijs.ppd.gz in my ppd folder. But I just reopened cups and it isn't there.

EDIT: Nevermind I see it. Thanks!

Printing is working though?

Check that hpaio is in the file /etc/sane.d/dll.conf

Please try opening an rxvt terminal and type:
Code:

ln -s /usr/lib/sane/libsane-hpaio.so.1 /lib/libsane-hpaio.so.1

and try xsane again.

PostPosted: Sat 14 Mar 2009, 02:36    Post subject: cannot execute the hpliplite packages?  
Thanks for the detailed process to install these scanner packages. I have a full HD install of puppy 4.0

I downloaded libnetsnmp.pet and hpliplite-3.9.2.pet

However, when I try to install the packages nothing happens. When I execute the files from a terminal window I receive the error message "permission denied" for both files.

What would this be please ?
