Interesting. I set up the desktop printing several years ago and don't |
| 28 |
really use it (except yesterday to confirm that xsane would fail, but it |
| 29 |
succeeded). |

Cups on the desktop says (ignoring another device, a p2055 laser printer) |

I guess this means I added it both via cups and via hp-setup. No |
| 42 |
explicit mention of fax. I am loath to mess with this until I get some |
| 43 |
success elsewhere as it is my only way to scan. |
| 44 |

This is a cups install as I recall that that I couldn't get hp-setup to |
| 51 |
work. I tried hp-setup again and it prints |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
-error: Unable to communicate with device (code=12): |
| 54 |

| 55 |
error: Unable to communicate with the device. Please check the device |
| 56 |
and try again. |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
I choose cancel and see the box with Printer Setup and Fax Setup, |
| 59 |
the latter checked |
| 60 |
|
| 61 |
If I click "add printer", hp-setup fails with the same msg as above. |
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
However, CUPS now see both devices (plain and _fax) like yours. |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
xsane changes as well. Instead of "no devices" I get |
| 66 |
"Failed to open device `hpaio:/net/Officejet_7300_series?zc1HPCC((32': |
| 67 |
Invalid argument." |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
Moreover the new printer entry in cups fails to print a test page (the |
| 70 |
old, cups-installed, entry continues to work). |
| 71 |

Thanks for your help. |
