Hello, in the past I've used an EPSON GT-7000 scanner (usb) model, with was connected via usb to my networkserver. Every client was abel to access the scanner via SANE.
Unfortunately ma scannedr died an ma HP Deskjet 930C is'n still the best printer. So I bought a new HP Photosmart C6180, very nice an puwerful machine - I still hope so. So far so good. I've connected the HP Photosmart C6180 to my network via the ethernet-interface and assigned a IP-Adress to the machine. Printing from my clients is no problem. I've added a new printer to CUPS and used the PPD file HP-PhotoSmart_C6100-hpijs.ppd.gz. But a few point I haven't understood: a) Must I connect my HP Photosmart C6180 via usb to my server, or b) Can I access my HP Photosmart C6180 for scanning via the network-connection? c) Is is right, that I must install the HPLIP-package for onlyusing "scan"? d) Must I install the HPLIP-softwarepackage on every client or ist this enough if I install the package only on my server? Ohhh I forgott, I'm using opensuse 10.0 on my Server an opensuse 10.2 on all my clients here. ciao, BC ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
