HP printer driver foo2xxx_rcrsn-2012.05.05.pet most recent

#1 Post by LeithR »

I need to connect to an HP Laserjet pro 200 NW276 printer and I understand that I require the foo2xxx driver. So far I've only been able to find the 2012 version of this driver from rcrsn51. Is there a more recent version of this driver please? I'm using Slacko 5.9.3 on a HP G56 laptop.
Thanks for any help.

LeithR, Bill's been MIA as of recent. If you've got an earlier build from him, give it a go.

Because Pup runs as root, you're better off with one of his builds than one that's offered for *multi-user* boxes.

There is a "zjs" version... my 1102 is in there, maybe the 200.

Editted... wrong version theres xqx and zjs.

xqx might be installed in puppy, but for example Slacko5.7, one has to install rcrsn's file.
AFAIK, thats the only one in Puppy Package Manager.

I've been scouring the forum for the foo2xxx_rcrsn-2013.02.05.pet without success. It seems that the sites that had this driver now no longer offer it. Does anybody know where the most recent foo2xxx driver can be obtained please?
