Hi again, step by step I got most of my hardware working but not yet my printer... Via CUPS-webtool I can install any driver/printer (though there is no driver for the 720 C given...), but no test pages are printed... I even tried turbolinux-driver via pb-debianinstaller, to no avail... I also downloaded that forty-something-megas-big "hplip-xxx.pet-thing", but do get complaints by PETget: "packet expansion error". Could please somebody help here? Thank you ! lionesse |

Forget the HPLIP, I believe you can uninstall that monster. See Here Here and Here to get your printer working. I think I would try the ***.ppd file first and save it to your /root folder. Then start CUPS and see if it's listed. If that doesn't work, follow the first link. You'll of course need the devx_.sfs for whatever version your using for the compiling. It's amazing what Google finds!! Good luck. _________________ trapster Maine, USA Asus eeepc 1005HA PU1X-BK Frugal install: Puppeee4.31 + 1.0, Puppy4.10 + Lupu52 Currently using Slacko AND lupu52 w/ fluxbox |

If you want to try again the big hplip package, please rename the file hplip_for_puppy_217-1.7.4a-i486.v2.pet (assuming this the one you downloaded from dotpets.de) to hplip_for_puppy_217-1.7.4a-i486.pet and try to install the newly renamed file. That could solve the problem you encountered. |
