Charles,

I can reproduce this. I'll continue to research this and see if there is a resolution. Sorry for the delay.

Hi Aaron,

I did do this (tail -f /var/log/messages) and got with hp-clean:

with hp-align, it's slightly different:

- ------------------------------

And yes, print and also using the cups interface works fine.

The printer I am trying to access is a deskjet 815C on the parallel
parport0 (the Lexmark is on usb).
hp-info says:
device-uri hp:/par/DESKJET_815C?device=/dev/parport0
And btw, my statement below (on the packages) is not correct:  some
packages are installed (libjpeg-devel-6.2.0-5, libjpeg-6.2.0-739,
libusb-0.1.10a-4), but the others are not.  Would that be the
reason for the problems?

Is it a problem that the same printer is still available under a different
print queue with Device URI: parallel:/dev/lp0 ?  Stopping that print
queue has no effect anyhow.

Charles Stroom

Charles,

Can you run tail -f /var/log/messages

and then try using one of the hp commands? (hp-align, etc)

There seems to be some sort of communication problem. But you can print okay?

however, the packages missing above are installed.  For example

rpm -qa | grep -i snmp

net-snmp-5.2.1-10.2
rpm -qa | grep -i libjpeg
libjpeg-devel-6.2.0-5
libjpeg-6.2.0-739

Any hints from the community?

Many thanks

Is this Fedora? If so, the errors you got in hp-check are a known problem. It will be fixed in the next release.

No, this is SuSE 10.0, with hplip 1.6.6a installed from tarfile.

As I said in my original message, hp-clean or similar programs fail when
writing to the device (I believe), with messages:
.
.
.  File "/usr/share/hplip/base/device.py", line 1531, in writePrint
    return self.__writeChannel(self.openPrint, data)
  File "/usr/share/hplip/base/device.py", line 1563, in __writeChannel
    raise Error(ERROR_DEVICE_IO_ERROR)
base.g.Error: ('Device I/O error', 12)

Still not working.

Regards,

Charles
