1.
Incorporated the following upstream change requests from Red Hat.
1. Removed IANA comment form hplip.conf.
2. Added libm library check to configure.in
<http://configure.in>.
3. Added some IPP "STATE:" messages for CUPS 1.2 in the
"hp" backend.
2.
Added configure time warning if chkconfig or install_initd are not
found. If either chkconfig or install_initd are not found "make
install" will not install the hplip startup script in
/etc/rc[0-6].d directories. The chkconfig/install_initd configure
time information will be available in the hplip.conf.
3.
Applied 'hplip-loop' patch from Tim Waugh [changes hpssd.py async
loop timeout from 0.5 to 5.0 sec].
4.
Fixed defect (The fax setup failed when executing hp-setup with
serial number USB ID parameter in terminal in Fedora Core6 32bit OS.)
5.
Fixed defect ([Fedora Core 6] deps don't download but installer
continues.)
6.
Fixed defect (The fax queue setup failed in SUSE10.1 32bit OS.)
[possible fix]
7.
Fixed defect ([hp-setup] device i/o error no way to cancel or go
back.)
8.
Fixed defect (The edit function can not be executed when changing
fax number only in Fax Address Book.)
9.
Fixed defect (The fax number and fax name was exchanged on the
"Finished Adding printer" page.)
10.
Fixed defect (Parameter "-bcups" of hp-probe command is disabled.)
11.
Fixed a potential batch scanning memory leak in libsane-hpaio with
scanimage version 1.0.18 or higher.
12.
Fixed defect (A blank screen is displayed while executing
"hp-check -lerror" in the terminal.)
13.
Fixed defect (The queue message of processing page is displayed
twice when executing a fax job with multi-pages in terminal in
Fedora core6.)
14.
Fixed a traceback in hp-check caused when non-HPLIP backends are
encountered in CUPS. [reported by user on mailing list]
15.
Fixed defect (The duplicate Nickname can be added to the Fax
Addresses by editing function.)
16.
photosmart_c6100_series: Changed copy-type from '3' to '0' [Note:
Make copies is temp. disabled for all inkjet AiOs]
17.
Added installer support for Mepis and PCLinuxOS.
18.
Replaced "pragma pack(1)" with "__attribute__((packed))" in all
C/C++ structures. This was needed for the ARM gcc compiler.
19.
Removed the libusb little-endian conversion in hpiod. This
conversion was not needed for big-endian systems because the usbfs
takes care of the big-endian to little-endian conversion.
20.
Added SANE_DEBUG_HPAIO support to libsane-hpaio. Setting the
SANE_DEBUG_HPAIO environment variable will display the following
messages to stderr.
- SANE_DEBUG_HPAIO=2 (error messages)
- SANE_DEBUG_HPAIO=6 (error messages + device info)
- SANE_DEBUG_HPAIO=8 (error messages + device info + sane api calls)
The following command will display all hpaio messages while running xsane.
SANE_DEBUG_HPAIO=8 xsane
The following command will display all sane and hpaio messages while running
xsane.
SANE_DEBUG_DLL=128 SANE_DEBUG_HPAIO=8 xsane
21. Finished enhancement (Add mDNS/Bonjour/Rendezvous support to
hp-probe).
22. Updated graphics and text in hp-toolbox about dialog.
23. Marked SANE_I18N text strings for localization in libsane-hpaio.
24. Added checks to make sure conf files exist and have no errors.
25. Reorganized include files in libsane-hpaio.
26. Enhancement: HPSSD performance/code cleanup modifications (several
functions moved from hpssd to client code).
27. Fax files are stored in temp files by hpssd rather than in memory.
28. Fixed a problem with lineart scanning using MMR compression on
Laserjets.
29. Added PyQt/SIP version check to hp-check.
30. Workaround added for (Launch of hp-setup from hp-toolbox leads to
error [reported by Johannes]) [Added error dialog if gksu or kdesu
not found]
31. Fixed defect ([Fedora Core 6] deps don't download but installer
continues).
32. Added the ability to quit in additional places for the color
alignment command-line tool and cleaned up some wording with-in
the command-line tool.
33. Fixed defect (Allow [SERIAL NO.|USB bus:device|IP|DEVNODE] to be
used with -u)
34. Fixed defect (The "remove of all files" - radio button is always
grayed-out in the hp-unload interface, so have removed it for
now). This was fixed by removing the radio button since we will
not support this functionality at this time.
35. Added table header rows to the product support tables every 20
rows [customer suggestion]
36. Applied the Ubuntu provided 61_noqt_message.dpatch with changes
[supplied by Matthias Klose with Ubuntu]
37. Fixed defect (Cannot complete installation, next button greyed out)
38. Added fix for password prompt during install using pexpect.
39. Added missing time import in setupform.py.
40. Fixed a problem with event forwarding in hpssd.
41. Fixed a problem with device status refresh in hp-sendfax (hpssd bug)
42. Moved hplip_api code to separate "api" directory.
43. Added hplip_api support for reading the new models.dat files. The
new models.dat file replaces the .xml files. For third-party
applications, the preferred way to read the models.dat file is to
use the hplip_api. The hplip_api can be used to get model
attributes without running the HPLIP daemons. See hplip_api.h for
reference.
44. Fixed defect (These Examples in usage of hp-setup that would work
in non-interactive mode should specify -i parameter.)
45. Fixed defect (hp-print UI not usable on 800x600 screen w/GNOME)
46. Applied 'hplip-loop' patch from Tim Waugh [changes hpssd.py async
loop timeout from 0.5 to 5.0 sec]
With SUSE 10.1 if hp-setup fails to create the print queue, and displays
the dialog box "failed to create printer queue, please restart CUPS."
and restarting CUPS does not resolve the issue. You can update CUPS to
1.2.7 as a work around for this issue.
*This HPLIP package includes HPIJS 2.6.12 which has the following changes.*
1. Made hplip_api calls in hpijs conditional at compile time. The
hpijs configure flag "hplip-build" will determine if hplip_api
calls are used.
2. Added support for the following new printer(s).
* Color LaserJet CP4005 (LJColor/PS)
* LaserJet M5025 MFP (LJMono/PS)
* LaserJet M3027 MFP (LJMono/PS)
