HP USB printers are not supported #446

Open louies0623 opened 1 year ago

louies0623 commented 1 year ago

I have an HP Deskjet 1010 printer and when I try to print a document, the system does not show any printers on it.

probonopd commented 1 year ago

Can you add the printer in http://localhost:631/admin, by clicking on "Add printer" and adding a local HPLIP printer?

louies0623 commented 1 year ago

That model doesn't have internet printing function, only USB connection.

probonopd commented 1 year ago

Yes. USB printers possibly need to be set up in CUPS in that way.

louies0623 commented 1 year ago

Is there a way to make it plug and play, this is too much trouble. Moreover, CUPS does not have a search option on the hardware selection list, and it is very tiring to search line by line.

probonopd commented 1 year ago

First step is to make it work at all. Does it work like this?

louies0623 commented 1 year ago

20230122_185210 It doesn't respond when I press the "Apply" button here.

probonopd commented 1 year ago

Maybe you need to use System -> Applications -> Preferences -> Print Settings

louies0623 commented 1 year ago

I tried it, it didn't work.

probonopd commented 1 year ago

Does your printer work on e.g., GhostBSD?

louies0623 commented 1 year ago

Is working.
Plug and play, no configuration required. 20230126_100631

probonopd commented 1 year ago

Can you find out why it works there but not here? Do they ship additional packages related to that printer? Do they run additional processes?

louies0623 commented 1 year ago

Tell me how to check.

probonopd commented 1 year ago

Again the question, can you add the printer in http://localhost:631/admin, by clicking on "Add printer" ?

louies0623 commented 1 year ago

it works and can go next.

probonopd commented 1 year ago

OK, great. Then we can remove the Gtk based application and link to that web page instead.

louies0623 commented 1 year ago

Just one thing, on GhostBSD, if you use your link, you will end up with an error, you can only use the detect hardware option from the menu to be fine.

probonopd commented 1 year ago

Just to be extra sure: On helloSystem can you add the printer in http://localhost:631/admin, by clicking on "Add printer" and it works?

louies0623 commented 1 year ago

I can only confirm that it is still stuck on this problem in the Hello system. https://github.com/helloSystem/ISO/issues/460

And ghostbsd is successfully adding the printer with the URL, but there is an error notification after adding the printer with the URL.
