This is what happens, starting from a clean system (mke2fs, then restore a |
7 |
known good backup of a freshly built system), and cups installed with |
8 |
USE="acl dbus jpeg pam perl png ppds python ssl |
9 |
tiff -X -avahi -gnutls -java -kerberos -ldap -php -samba -slp -static -xinetd -zeroconf": |

I let cups find the printer and I tell it to use the .ppd file I got from |
12 |
linuxprinting.org. It shows the printer configuration page, where I set A4 |
13 |
paper, then I get a security error saying that I have attempted to |
14 |
establish a connection with 192.168.2.2 whereas the security certificate |
15 |
presented belongs to serv.ethnet. Guess what - serv.ethnet is the machine |
16 |
I'm working on and it has IP address 192.168.2.2. What is going on here? (I |
17 |
don't get this error when setting up my laser printer; only with this |
18 |
inkjet.) |

On printing a test page I get "/usr/libexec/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed" |
21 |
and job stopped. |

It would be nice to get that far. At present I can't get anything working at |
27 |
all without using hplip. |
