Aaron, thanks for your response. It worked with flying colours. It seemed that they were some packages that I didn't have installed although configure did not pick them up.
Can you help me a little further as it seems that now HPLIP is installed there are a couple of problems. 1. Cannot print The job status resorts to stopped whenever I try to print (test print). After some playing I used the printer manager (in gnome) to change the connection to LPT #1 - this worked but creates the problem that hp-toolbox no longer opens as it does not believe it has a printer installed. 2. Scan image will open up xsane and the scanner will initializes, but when I try to preview or scan it will hang xsane once again, thanks Dan On Wed, 2006-06-14 at 14:13 -0700, Aaron J Albright wrote: > Hey Dan, > > first go here: > > /home/danielph/Desktop/hplip-0.9.11 > > run: > > sudo make uninstall > make clean > sudo rm -rf /usr/share/hplip/ > > then run: > > sudo apt-get install python2.4-dev python2.4-qt3 libcupsys2-dev > libsnmp9-dev libjpeg62-dev lsb libtool automake1.9 libusb-dev > > finally, > > ./configure --prefix=/usr > make > sudo make install > sudo /etc/init.d/hplip restart > sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart > > and very finally: > sudo hp-setup -a > > how does this work for you? > > Aaron > > > Daniel Phillips wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I have a Officejet 1170c running under dapper.
