[solved] can't get printer to work. HP deskjet 710c

i follow this guide from the wiki:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CUPS_Setup
i have installed cups and ghostscript.
also i have installed, foomatic-filters, hplip
i also download from here
http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_print … skJet_710C
the PPD file, that suit my printer.
after that, i copy the file to /usr/share/cups/model/
after that i did:
modprobe lp
modprobe parport
modprobe parport_pc
no errors
started CUPS:
/etc/rc.d/cups start
go to:
http://localhost:631/
and added my printer using the PPD file, i downloaded before.
(i used LPT 1 for the printer, its a parallel printer, not usb)
this is the web interface with my printer details and status. also you can see the error, that said: "/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed"
http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/6605/hpyj2.png
in buttom line, when i try to print, it's trying to print, but that's it, nothing happend. no printing. not even a noise from the printer :-)
after everything didn't work i tried to install more foomatic_* packages.
i installed(as i see in pacman -Qs):
foomatic-db 3.1-1
foomatic-db-engine 3.1-1
foomatic-db-ppd 20060411-2
and foomatic-filters 3.1-1
still, nothing is working
thanks

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)
Cheers,

[SOLVED] Can't get sound to work.

Hello, I installed archlinux a few days ago, I love it!
But I can't get sound to work.
I followed the alsa archwiki, but I still couldn't get it work.
I'm a real noob.
Someone please help.

Can't get printer to work (Windows - Arch)

I have an XP box and my Arch box on my home network, have Lexmark X1100 connected to XP box (USB printer). It worked fine on Ubuntu, I know it can work but I haven't gotten anything going using the Arch wiki on CUPS. Here is my /etc/samba/smb.conf:
# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the

I was using the Gnome cups manager on Ubuntu, but I cannot find this package on my system now. I see it in AUR but shouldn't it be in pacman? I have searched and searched but can't find it. And I installed gtklp, but upon startup it just gives me "No printers found!" and exits.
EDIT: I have just built gnome-cups-manager from AUR and am at the point where I select a driver, however in the Manufacturer list there is nothing showing, and when I hit Install Driver and select the .ppd I got from the CUPS site for my printer, it just says "The PPD /usr/share/cups/model/Lexmark-X125-drv_x125.ppd is already installed" I can't get past this point??

I found KDE method (under Arch) more reliable, but both should work. No idea about Gnome.

Help - using windows 7 and bonjour and can't get printer to work!

Hi, I recently upgraded my wife's pc. Previously I had a wireless printer set up using bonjour and the airport express. My mac and the old pc (windows xp). I had no problems printing. I upgraded her PC and now it uses windows 7. I installed bonjour and tried to print but no success. The PC can see the printer. It says that it sends the file to print. I get no printer error or anything on the PC, but nothing happens. Anyone have a suggestion?
Thanks

Re: Can't Get Printer To Work on Wireless AEBS Network

I have two Macs: a iMac G3 and an iMac G5. The G3 is connected by ethernet cable to an AEBS which is connected to the internet via cable. The G5 is in another room and is connected wirelessly to the G3. I have an older Epson Stylus Color 740 that I've tried to connect via the printer port on the AEBS in order to set it up as a shared printer, but, for some reason, I've been unable to. I have the sharing option turned on in System Prefs>Print and Fax and System Prefs>Sharing on both computers. Can anyone tell me what I'm not getting?
I can get the printer to work off of either the G3 or the G5 if it's connected directly to them via a USB cable.

My Airport Extreme keeps losing my printer and the settings in print dialog change even with the lock closed. The printer still appears as being on the AE network in the print setup screen but the computer is unable to find it when printing..
This means that several times each day I have to change the settings back to what they should be and re-install my printer after restarting. I can only do this by deleting the printer completely and starting again from scratch.
The base station is often not registering in Airport Admin Utility until reset and the computer is restarted. It is okay for a while then is not available again.
Also my network settings change without asking for authorisation (and the lock changes from closed to open on its own). This seems to mostly happen while I am logged on and close Safari then re-open it, the internet is not available. Upon checking, the padlock is now open and the settings have changed.
This is extremely frustrating! What am I doing wrong? I am ready to chuck the thing out the window!

Can't get printer to work for my life

kernel 2.6.25
printer: HP laserjet 4
usb
CUPS
Even if printer is on at boot, printer won't work.
This has happened before, and I can usually get it working after fiddling with it for 10-15 minutes, then it stops working promptly.
I had it working a few nights ago, now it has stopped again.
dmesg
input: Video Bus as /class/input/input6
usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 3 if 0 alt 1 proto 2 vid 0x0557 pid 0x2006
usbcore: registered new interface driver usblp
sdhci: Secure Digital Host Controller Interface driver
What should the URI for a usb printer be?
USB is not an option for "Device for PrinterName" in the CUPS web interface
I can print from vbox on this machine, so this is slightly less urgent.

There is no hub. The laptop has 2 ports on the front, 2 on the back, with the printer plugged into the back.
If it matters, this is a parallel printer, with a parallel to usb cable connecting it to the machine.
Now that we know the usb port number the printer is plugged into, we should be able to figure out the uri.
EDIT: lsubs shows the same whether printer is on or not.
An adapter, my mistake.
I had a parallel printer plugged into a USB port through an adapter for a while, and it exhibited the same behavior. My "solution" was to delete the printer and then recreate in CUPS. Sometimes the interface would reappear and sometimes it wouldn't.
Dusty started a thread about this a while back, and I was the last one to answer. Maybe you can get a hold of him and see if he had any success.

[SOLVED] Can't get Steam to work, VirtualBox installation

Hello!
I'm having problems with getting Steam to work on my Arch Linux installation. I'm new to Linux so I'll just give you a prehistory & console output. I installed the distro on a virtual machine created in VirtualBox, installed xorg & KDE, I didn't install any video drivers because this is what wiki says:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/VirtualBox#Installation_steps_for_Arch_Linux_guests wrote:Note: You do not need to also install a specific video driver in the guest system. Install the Guest Additions instead.
So I installed "virtualbox-guest-utils" package, created a file /etc/modules-load.d/virtualbox.conf with the following contents:
vboxguest
vboxsf
vboxvideo
Then I executed
sudo systemctl enable vboxservice
and rebooted the system. After the reboot I got the shared clipboard feature working => VBox Guest Additions seemed to work. Then I installed "steam" package, launched it via the terminal and waited for it to download it's updated. After Steam downloaded everything, I tried to launch it once again via terminal and got this:

STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically

and a GUI window saying "OpenGL GLX extension not supported by display". I tried to find a solution on the internet but they all mentioned installing Nvidia drivers. And VirtualBox GPU != Nvidia GPU.
Is there any way to solve this? Steam is working on my Fedora-VBox (this is the distro our lecturer uses as an example to teach us about Linux) installation out of the box.
EDIT: forgot to mention that system is x86_64, multilib in enabled, 3D acceleration in VM settings is enabled.

Fixed the issue by replacing nvidia-libgl with mesa-libgl & lib32-mesa-libgl.

[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?

[Solved] Can't get sound to work proper

Hey
I use KDE4 with KMix. I have 5.1 Optical sound.
When I enter Audio Setup in KMix and test the "hw: 0,1" option I get playback.
But I haven't gottten any sound except that. Tried a video in MPlayer and Youtube video in Firefox.
I'm still abit new to Arch and linux.
Also tried adding
ctl.equal {
type equal;
pcm.plugequal {
type equal;
# Modify the line below if you do not
# want to use sound card 0.
#slave.pcm "plughw:0,0";
#by default we want to play from more sources at time:
slave.pcm "plug:dmix";
#pcm.equal {
# Or if you want the equalizer to be your
# default soundcard comment the following
# line and uncomment the above line.
pcm.!default {
type plug;
slave.pcm plugequal;
pcm.eq {
type ladspa
# The output from the EQ can either go direct to a hardware device
# (if you have a hardware mixer, e.g. SBLive/Audigy) or it can go
# to the software mixer shown here.
#slave.pcm "plughw:0,0"
slave.pcm "plug:dmix"
# Sometimes you may need to specify the path to the plugins,
# especially if you have just installed them. Once you have logged
# out/restarted this should not be necessary, but if you get errors
# about being unable to find plugins, try uncommenting this.
#path "/usr/lib/ladspa"

Did what you said. PCM was the only one muted.
Oddly, I recently started having the opposite problem. KDE startup and other systems sounds have stopped playing. All my other sound (mplayer, flash, etc) work fine. I can play the startup sound fine when opening it via dolphin. It just doesn't play on startup, or any other system sound. I know this happened after a recent update but I am not sure what or when caused it. Startup sound isn't that important to me but fixing it is. No luck so far.

[SOLVED] Can't get spamassassin to work

Hi!
I'm trying to get spamassassin to work, but it seems like it doesn't want to cooperate
Here's ~/.forward file

Can't get printer to work wirelessly since adding timecapsule

I have just added a Time capsule to my BT Home hub network just to back up all the different computers in the house wirelessly. Since adding it I can not get my HP Officejet J4680 to print wirelessly. Any ideas anyone?

originally the printer was connected to my power pc G4 by usb cable and the macbook pros printed wirelessly.
Was that G4 Mac set up to share its printer?
My airport address is 192.168.1.254 my printers IP was originally 169.254.24.167 but I changed it to 192.168.1.76.
Launch AirPort Utility and put the Time Capsule into "manual setup" mode. Pull down the "Base Station" menu and select "Logs and Statistics". Select the "Wireless Client" tab. Do you see the printer there? (If you have trouble identifying the clients you see there, enter their "MAC addresses" in this Web site
http://aruljohn.com/mac.pl
to identify their manufacturers.
It would be good to configure your printer to be a DHCP client, but it's not clear from its manual

that the printer supports that.

[SOLVED] Can't get any sound working at all

I've just installed Arch again on my MacBook 5,2 and I can't get any sound (speakers or earphones) to work. I've tried the ALSA wiki page for troubleshooting, but none of that has worked. Does anyone have any ideas where to start with this?

[SOLVED] can't get flash to work

First i tried copying the flashplayer.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins dir, but it didnt exists yet, so i did a searh and i found. This http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ins … bit_System tried installing nspluginwrapper but it didnt work after restarting firefox. Tried manually installing the flashplater.so files again, since there was a dir there. Tried pacman -S flashplugin after i found that to be the most up to date way. None of this has worked, any ideas? I installed the 10.0.42.34 version. I never restarted anything other than firefox either. Thanx for any help.

Yes, sorry about the editing, i just spent 10 minutes looking for the edit buttons and then the submit buttons, my new style made them invisible:P . I had a thought though. Before i installed gnome i had installed firefox, could i have installed a second copy while installing gnome or done something else to cause me difficulty? I like firefox but i guess i'll try getting flash to work in some other browsers and see how that goes. Also, firefox isnt detecting any plugins in its add-ons section, perhaps thats a clue?

[SOLVED] Can't get network to work (realtek NIC)

Hi there!
I found Arch a couple of weeks ago and I got pretty excited with the possibility of taking my old Athlon 750MHz out of inactivity.
Unfortunately, I can't seem to get the network to work.
* I installed the system using Archlinux-i686-2007.08-2.core.iso
* I have a little router and the machine has static IP

The kernel module for
Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+
is 8139too I think
So /etc/rc.conf should be like this
# HARDWARE
# Scan hardware and load required modules at bootup
MOD_AUTOLOAD="yes"
# Module Blacklist - modules in this list will never be loaded by udev
MOD_BLACKLIST=()
# Modules to load at boot-up (in this order)
# - prefix a module with a ! to blacklist it
MODULES=( 8139too forcedeth sk98lin slhc ac97_bus snd-mixer-oss snd-pcm-oss snd-seq-oss snd-seq-device snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-hwdep snd-$
# Scan for LVM volume groups at startup, required if you use LVM
USELVM="no"
The first one is 8139too, so it will be eth0
In my example the second one is forcedeth for nvidia ethernet controler, so its going to be eth1
Don't forget to edit /etc/resolv.conf
