[SOLVED] Can't get CUPS to add / detect HP Laserjet 1100 printer

I moved my computer downstairs... after a few weeks I decided to move my printer down and set it up. I had it working perfectly a few weeks ago before the move... however now I can't get CUPS to detect or add my printer. At first when I moved my printer downstairs the CUPS web interface had my previous setup still there and had my printer detected / added. However, printing jobs would just stay in the queue and never print. I did some googling and someone mention to remove the printer and re-add it. Well I tried to to that and got stuck on trying to re-add it. CUPS will not identify my printer now. Funny thing is I just now remember I had a similiar issue a few months back and I remembered now I fixed the queue issue just by unplugging the power to my printer and leaving it off for 5min then replugging it in. I have tried all the steps on the wiki and I can't seem to figure this one out. dmesg does output that it is detecting my printer. I have my printer hooked up via a mini parralel to USB cord. If you have any other questions for me please shoot
Unplugging and repluggin my printer gives me this msg in dmesg:
usblp0: removed
usb 6-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4
usb 6-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 4 if 0 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x4348 pid 0x5584
hp-toolbox also does not detect any printers. I have tried restarting cupsd... Any help is appreciated... I need to get printing up ASAP since school has started.
lsusb output this amongst other things:
Bus 006 Device 004: ID 4348:5584 WinChipHead CH34x printer adapter cable
If it matters I am using XFCE as my DE... I also do not remember using the CUPS interface to intially add the printer... I do not exactly remember how I did it... but the web interface looked completely new to me and I am rather sure that is not how I initially went about doing it... perhaps I used some GUI frontend for it...
EDIT: After reading the forum descriptions closer... perhaps this should be moved to the Workstation section.

Tell you the truth... I have no idea how to change it or what not... I didn't even add that manually... just rebooted my computer one day and it appeared there.
hpsetup does not detect my printer
system-config-printer gives me an error when I try and add a printer. I manually specify the location to file:/dev/usb/lp0 ... I scroll down find HP LaserJet 1100 and the recommended driver is hpjis 3.9.8. I select that and I get the following:
There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'client-error-not-possible'
EDIT: I am about ready to chunk to this printer out the window... I have been messing with this for about a week now and I just keep getting two steps forward and then three steps backwards.
The system-config-printer dialog looked familiar and I believe that when I intially was able to set up my printer and had it working upstairs I used that dialog to add my printer.
Some googling brought me to this ubuntu bug report
Your USB-to-parallel adapter does not pass through the printer ID. The device is recognized as printer, but there is no information about manufacturer and model. Therefore system-config-printer and hal-cups-utils automatically assign the text-only printer to the unknown device.
In general you have to run system-config-printer and manually choose manufacturer and model.
That you cannot print at all is a bug of the "hal" CUPS backend. See
https://fedorahosted.org/hal-cups-utils/ticket/5
Try to do the following:
cupsctl FileDevice=yes
lpadmin -p <your print queue name> -E -v file:/dev/usb/lp0
This is an ugly workaround which works if you have only one printer (the one with the adapter cable) on USB. Does it work for you?
Now the problem is that I can not add my printer via the system-config-printer. However, if I go the CUPS web interface and hit manage printers the driver is listed as the following:
Driver: Local Raw Printer (grayscale)
Now I think that is my issue... I need to have it set to the correct driver... if I hit modify printer and select my Make/Model I get the following access error:
401 Unauthorized
Enter your username and password or the root username and password to access this page. If you are using Kerberos authentication, make sure you have a valid Kerberos ticket.
However there is no prompt or I do not know where to enter this information to.

Did you restart the printer?

Airprint won't work with the Kodak printers because Kodak does not support Airprint. You'll need to check in the App store to see if Kodak makes a printing app for the iPad. Otherwise, there are a number of third party printing apps. People have used Printopia, Print n Share, and Print Central with good results.

SOLVED: Can't get CM 1015 printer to scan: where is the "HP Solution Center" ?

Hi,
I have a HP cm1015 printer.
Recently win8.1 was installed, and I had to reinstall the printer.
I downloaded drivers from the hp site, but I can't get the printer to scan.
It prints, and copies ok, but scanning doesn't work.
What is unclear:
If I go to the download driver page, I can download 4 different kind of drivers.
I can choose between :
Driver - Universal print Driver
- for windows PCL6
- For Windows Postscript
- for windows PLC5
Software - Universal Print driver
- HP Printer administrator resource kit.
I chose
- for windows PCL6
The "HP Printer administrator resource kit.": are all different files. Don't know what to do with it.
To scan I should be able to get into the "HP solution Center", according to the manual.
However, after downloading and installing the "windows PCL6" driver, I don't see that center on my PC.
So how do I get the HP solution center ?
Thx!

Problem 1: HP Solution Cntr could not detect any devices and closed down
Solution??? I downloaded, uninstalled and re-installed the driver successfully.....but could not "add the device" in the last step even if I followed the instructions carefully: a) make sure device is powered on
b) connect USB cable
Per Control Panel, printer is "ready" but does not print.
Problem 2: My HP Solution Center disappeared. How do I re-establish connection?

It works now. I'm not 100% sure what fixed it, but my guess is that it was blacklisting usblp
Here are the steps.
delete the printer using cups if it is already installed (this is what I didn't do at first, and what caused me to waste a couple hours screwing with other config files).
open /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf and add this line to it: blacklist usblp
reboot.
add the printer using CUPS (this time "Local Printers" showed my Canon MP730 as an option)

Can't get iTunes to add a (home) video to the library.

Adding a video to iTunes. "Help" (HA!) says to use Menu/File/Add File to Library or drag and drop, just like an audio file. Neither works for me. If I drag and drop, iTunes will create an empty playlist with the filename of the video; no file, just the name. iTunes v11.0.2.26

MY problem is I can see the vids I've added... I can easily add them to play lists... and when I click on one, I can see it play in iTunes... But, even tho all these vids are in a playlist, only one will play at a time... so, no matter what I do, I can't get the next vid in the playlist to play sequentailly.
Vids I've purchased from Apple work just fine..... go figure.
I SUSPECT this is Apple's way of telling us to forget about home made vids, and ONLY use vids purchased in the iTunes store....

I assume you're running nm-applet --sm-disable once you get a window manager session up?
Try starting networkmanager after hal. From the wiki:
You must also "disable" the default network daemon, and add the hal, dhcdbd and networkmanager daemons in this order:
DAEMONS=( ... !network hal dhcdbd networkmanager ... )

How can I get my Mac to detect my wireless printer?

I recently upgraded to yosemite and my Mac no longer recognizes my canon pima printer (wi-fi connection). I deleted the printer on the printer list after I received a connection error with the intention of adding it back and now cannot get my Mac to detect the printer to add it. I installed the updated driver from canon's site. Thank you for your help.

Hi CountyLineDesignLLC,
I see that you have some questions about troubleshooting a wireless printer after updating to Yosemite. Here is an article for you that should be able to help you achieve this goal:

[SOLVED] Can't get my PS2 keyboard working

Hi
I just bought the reknowned IBM model M keyboard with PS2 connector, and when I boot into Arch, I can't get it to work.
I found this post, which links to a supposed solution, but the link is unfortunately dead: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=36299
Some facts:
1. The keyboard does work when I'm at the bootloader.
2. I can boot into a Puppy Linux derivative from USB and use the keyboard without any problems, which leads me to believe the problem is in Arch.
3. I am using a USB mouse.
4. Plugging and unplugging the keyboard does not show up in dmesg
Any thoughts on how to fix this are appreciated
Thanks
Martin

The first line looks like it is from the PS2 keyboard, at least that's how I interperet AT Translated Set 2. Strange that the timestamp is completely wrong. The other lines are from when I plugged my USB keyboard in.
Maybe there is a hook in mkinitcpio I can add, or something with udev?

[SOLVED] Can't get curl to work, among everything else

No matter what form I put curl in, I can't see to get it to work. The various manuals I've read through <man> and online have all shown me different examples, but none work.
I've tried <command> | curl -F 'sprunge=<-'http://sprunge.us' and it does... nothing.
I've tried substituting ix urls and pastebin urls but it does nothing.
I feel like a complete moron because everyone expects me to instantly understand what all this gibberish means, and no one else seems to have a problem uploading command text online.
I've had trouble every step of the way installing arch, and its taken me four hours to slug through each problem. Right now I can't start fluxbox for some reason, but I can't get the errors here except for what I write down.
Heres the error for that
Xmodmap: unable to open display ''
Error: Couldn't connect to XServer
I've tried redirecting xmodmap to the keys but it did nothing. I've tried figuring out this xserver thing but my retardation has apparently gotten in the way.
Is this normal? Does everyone feel like an 90 year old when they first jump into arch linux?
