Thanks.Chrome OS is Google's Linux-based operating system built around the Chrome web browser that can run Android apps. Anymore ideas to fix this issue would be great. Thanks for all the help provided so far getting the printer going. I can't think what would cause a problem like this. Point being I have printed successfully from Firefox in the past. Except that it always cut off the top line that has the URL and page (or I guess that's what is on it?), and I think there was an issue with the fonts there as well. For installation guides and what not.īefore when I had the printer installed in Ubuntu it printed from Firefox just fine. The downside being, printing from Firefox is the primary use of my printer. I assume that that is a matter of installing fonts for the printer? So then it seems that it is just printing from Firefox that presents the problem. They printed fine except that they don't use the proper fonts. Well I tested a couple Open Office documents, one with images, one without. I have CUPS in my DAEMONS in /etc/rc.conf, if that is relevant. I had printed the first 'weird' page, restarted, then printed the next two (one of which was halfway normal, the other of course was not). Well, actually I guess I would have when I restarted.

PPD FILE FOR PRINTER HOW TO

I was gonna include screenshots but I don't seem to be able to figure out how to do that. I assume that it is some language of font problem.

So there is definite progress, after all the printer works now. The scanner seems to be working fine though. So what do you think the problem with this is? I find it strange that it almost works once, then works weird, and I'm sure if I try enough times I will get another decent page. I tried printing a third time and got the same weird characters as the first time. There should be a black and a blue bar over the Home, Forums, etc., but it doesn't show up. Also though, the Arch Linux banner does not show up, and Home, Forums, etc. Apart from some seriously awful fonts (it is not printing the fonts that I actually see on the page) the page prints more or less normal. I checked and I had chosen 'foomatic/hpijs'.

However, how do I delete the packages so that when I try to reinstall them they re-download also? Right now I save copies, but I don't know where they are or how to get rid of them. I am thinking of removing all related packages and trying again from scratch. Is perhaps not having said file the problem?Īlso as to luca's instructions, when I followed the instructions that you gave I was using the repository version of HPLIP and also I was curious as to whether I should have un-installed/removed HPLIP before attempting your instructions?Īny other ideas would be appreciated. However, I do not have '/etc/udev/rules.d/' or '/etc/udev/rules.d/les'. Sim4lin: Thanks for the idea, I checked it out.

Last edited by The Avatar of Time ( 08:30:40) I should have mentioned that I am running Arch64, in case that has some bearing on the issue. I must just be missing something simple.ĭoes anyone have any idea as to how I can get the appropriate PPD file, or which one of the listed ones might work instead? The only Officejet that I see listed is the 'hp_officejet_9100_', does that sound like a reasonable choice?Īny assistance would be greatly appreciated. I also went to to try and find a PPD file, but there doesn't seem to be one for this printer.Īs I say, I know that the printer/scanner/fax-everything worked just fine in Ubuntu, so I am sure that it can be accomplished here. I try the 'Select Other' option, but there is no PPD file relating to the 5610 AIO or even the 5600 series. It sees that I have an 'HP Officejet 5600 series' and after clicking next I get a 'PPD file not found' error. I select USB as the printer I want to detect, and that goes fine.
