[My apologies if a second copy of this message shows up; there seems to be some problem posting to the list.] You can get the portfile and patch as an attachment to bug 7201 (http://bugzilla.opendarwin.org/ show_bug.cgi?id=7201). It won't be committed until the bugs are worked out, and there is another port that needs to be committed first: you will need to also install PyQt (http://bugzilla.opendarwin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8480) for the GUI apps (hp-toolbox, etc.). Some other comments: 1. I've only tested it on my own machine (PowerPC with OS 10.4) with my device. 2. To integrate with OS X's CUPS installation, it installs 4 files outside of the DarwinPorts tree: /usr/libexec/cups/backend/hp /usr/libexec/cups/backend/hpfax /usr/libexec/cups/filter/foomatic-rip /usr/share/cups/model/foomatic-ppds These should be removed if you do a regular "port uninstall". But it does let you print from OS X apps. 3. The portfile will instruct you on how to create a startup item that launches the hplip daemons (hpiod and hpssd); you should restart after you do this. Otherwise you need to launch them manually and then quit and restart cups. 4. You _may_ need to turn off/uninstall any OS X native HP software. I'm not sure about this, but I ended up uninstalling mine while I work on this. I'd be interested to know how it turns out. You can post any error logs, etc. to bug 7201 if you want. ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
