USB printer problem
Mario Lobo
I've been trying for 2 days with no success
Here is the setup:
FreeBSD 6.4-STABLE #0: Wed Dec 10 22:25:05 BRT 200
-printer detected
kernel: ulpt0: HP Deskjet D1500 series, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 2, iclass 7/1
kernel: ulpt0: using bi-directional mode
/etc/devfs.conf
own ulpt0 root:cups
perm ulpt0 0660
/etc/devfs.rules
[system=10]
add path lpt[0-9]* mode 0660 group cups
add path ulpt[0-9]* mode 0660 group cups
add path unlpt[0-9]* mode 0660 group cups
/etc/rc.conf
devfs_system_ruleset="system"
cupsd_enable="YES"
and nothing bellow works !
# lptest 20 10 > /dev/ulpt0
# /usr/local/bin/gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dSAFER -r600x600 -sDEVICE=ijs -sIjsServer=/usr/local/bin/hpijs
-dIjsUseOutputFD -sOutputFile=- -sDeviceManufacturer="HP" -sDeviceModel="DJ3600" /tmp/foomatic-rip.ps
> /dev/ulpt0
# cat /etc/rc.conf > /dev/ulpt0
The printer doesn't even move !
Tried changing usb ports:
Jan 4 12:59:38 kernel: ulpt0: at uhub0 port 1 (addr 2) disconnected
Jan 4 12:59:38 kernel: ulpt0: detached
Jan 4 12:59:41 kernel: ulpt0: HP Deskjet D1500 series, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 2,
iclass 7/1
Jan 4 12:59:41 kernel: ulpt0: using bi-directional mode
and nothing happens :(
I've been googling for 2 days, read all I could, tried all I read and nothing
happens.
any suggestions?
Thanks!

Sure ...
Acording to your mail, you seem to be using hplip as a back end ...
[gonzalo@inferna ~]% pkg_info -W /usr/local/bin/hpijs
/usr/local/bin/hpijs was installed by package hplip-2.8.2_3
[gonzalo@inferna ~]%
Its all there in hplip's installation notes... you need hpssd up and running
and the printer should be attached to ugen ... hplip doesn't work with
ulpt ..
[gonzalo@inferna ~]% pkg_info -xD hplip
Information for hplip-2.8.2_3:
Install notice:
**********************************************************
**************** UPGRADE FROM 1.X NOTICE *****************
NOTE: If you are upgrading from 1.x you will need to
change your devfs ruleset as hpiod is now gone, so remove
it from you rc.conf. The printer communication now runs
through cupsd. You will need to make the devfs ruleset
changes to allow cups to access the usb bus and ugen
devices so that it can enumerate the printers. You will
also need to update your hplip.conf. See the instructions
below.
**************** UPGRADE FROM 1.X NOTICE *****************
Add the following to your rc.conf:
hpssd_enable="YES"
So all you have to do if you have a custom ruleset setup
is add the following to that ruleset in devfs.rules:
add path 'usb*' group cups
add path 'usb*' mode 0660
add path 'ugen*' group cups
add path 'ugen*' mode 0660
If you have never setup devfs.rules please read the
manpage and see:
http://am-productions.biz/docs/devfs.rules.php
The printer MUST attach as a ugen(4) device. This means
that you must NOT have "device ulpt" in your kernel and
ulpt must NOT be loaded as a kernel module.
If you are seeing device connection errors restart the
printing chain with the following command. NOTE: It MUST
be restarted in the stated order.
%%PREFIX%%/etc/rc.d/hpssd restart && \
%%PREFIX%%/etc/rc.d/cupsd restart
If upgrading from a version < 2.7.9 copy the new
hplip.conf.sample config.
cp %%PREFIX%%/etc/hp/hplip.conf.sample \
%%PREFIX%%/etc/hp/hplip.conf
If you are still having problems check:
http://am-productions.biz/docs/hplip.php
If you are still having problems send the relevant part
of your /var/log/messages, console output from the hp-*
utility that you are trying to run, and your rc.conf +
devfs.rules files and the output of "ls -l /dev" to the
maintainer.

No success. I waited hours for hplip to compile/install and nothing :(
here are some outputs:

Note: hp-check can be run in three modes:
1. Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling
the HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the proper
dependencies are installed to successfully compile HPLIP.
2. Run-time check mode (-r or --run): Use this mode to determine if a distro
supplied package (.deb, .rpm, etc) or an already built HPLIP supplied tarball
has the proper dependencies installed to successfully run.
3. Both compile- and run-time check mode (-b or --both) (Default): This mode
will check both of the above cases (both compile- and run-time dependencies).
