Hey Eberhard,In the future before doing a reinstall you may want to try restarting hplip/cups and the printer. usually that will correct this sort of problem. otherwise it sounds like there may be 2 conflicting installs of hplip. can you run ps ax | grep hp and post the output? other wise you can also try doing a clean install, make uninstall, then rm -rf /usr/share/hplip, etc.
hope this helps. A Eberhard Roloff wrote:
Hi, I am using the latest hplip package on ubuntu 6.06.1 with a laserjet 3392, connected via Ethernet. Anything (print/fax/scan) worked like a charm, until this morning. ;-)) When I wanted to print, nothing happened. In localhost:631, the printer was indicated "yellow", processing, accepting jobs, published and the message was: open device failed, will retry in 30 seconds. Now, I made a "make clean, make uninstall and then reinstalled hplip exactly according to the web install instructions from "apt-get install...." to "sudo make install". Anything worked great, except when issuing "sudo make install", I got this error at the end: if [ "no" = "no" ]; then \ /home/eroloff/download/software/hp_laserjet/hplip-1.6.7/install-sh -d /etc/hp; \ /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 /usr/share/hplip/hplip.conf /etc/hp; \ if [ -d /etc/init.d ]; then \ /usr/bin/install -c /usr/share/hplip/hplip /etc/init.d; \ if [ "" = "" ]; then \ if [ "" != "" ]; then \ hplip; \ else \ hplip reset; \ fi \ fi \ fi \ fi /bin/sh: line 9: hplip: command not found make[3]: *** [install-data-hook] Error 127 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/eroloff/download/software/hp_laserjet/hplip-1.6.7' make[2]: *** [install-data-am] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/eroloff/download/software/hp_laserjet/hplip-1.6.7' make[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/eroloff/download/software/hp_laserjet/hplip-1.6.7' make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 Now, after restarting hplip and cupsys and subsequently running "sudo hp-setup <printeripadress>, the error is "error: Unable to connect to hpiod" Well it sounds funny that it worked yesterday night but not his morning. I memorize that I did a few security updates that ubuntu suggested but nothing printer related, if I recallcorrectly.Any help how to track this down is greatly appreciated.
