hp 1018 not responding on Fedora 10 x86 [solved]
Posted by: Abu Noor-Eddin ()

Hello all,

I have just followed the instruction exactly to install hp 1018 driver and everything went fine, however, when I begin to print anything the printer is not responding.

Any ideas?

What did you use for the URI???

From the INSTALL file: 
CUPS USB NOTES
--------------
    If you are using the USB port, then the URI should be:
        usb:/dev/usb/lp0
        usb:/dev/usb/lp1
    OR
        usb://Samsung/CLP-310%20Series
        usb://Samsung/CLP-310%20Series
        usb://HP/Color%20LaserJet%20CP1215
        usb://HP/Color%20LaserJet%202600n
        usb://HP/LaserJet%201000
        usb://HP/LaserJet%201005
        usb://HP/LaserJet%201018
        usb://HP/LaserJet%201020
        usb://HP/LaserJet%20P1005
        usb://HP/LaserJet%20P1006
        usb://HP/LaserJet%20P1505

    Don't use hp://<whatever> because that is for hplib (a closed source,
    proprietary driver).

I tried both

usb:/dev/usb/lp0
usb:/dev/usb/lp1

Shall I try usb://HP/LaserJet%201018 ?

What does: 
$ cd foo2zjs
$ foo2zjs-wrapper -P -z1 -L0 testpage.ps > xxx.prn
$ cp xxx.prn /dev/usb/lp0
do? Should print...

It is a CUPS problem, then!

Printing -> hp1018 -> Policies -> Enabled
Printing -> hp1018 -> Policies -> Accepting jobs

Works fine on Fedora 10 here!!!!

Yes these setting as you typed but still not working!

How can I delete everything related to printer driver I may install earlier and begin a new installation?

Thanks anyway.

It is a CUPS problem, not a foo2zjs problem. yum update cups.
