Hi, haven't got an update to my last mail / report ( see below ).
Is there any possibility to directly send faxes via cups queue or lpr +fax number without interacting with a GUI ? I want to use the "FAX" like a printer from any other application ( my wishlist ). regards, -- Wolfgang Schlüschen Wolfgang Schlueschen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 22.08.2007 21:33 To Aaron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc hplip-help@lists.sourceforge.net Subject Re: [Hplip-help] hp-sendfax from OpenOffice or alternative ? Classification Hi Aaron, I followed your advice: - created a HP Fax queue - printed to HP Fax queue from within OpenOffice - ran hp-sendfax ( while I left OpenOffice open ) - send Fax ( no error message ) - closed OpenOffice The received Fax only contained a part of the whole Fax. Error message: (-0x45D) Unexpected end of file while receiving: <phone#> was displayed on receiving end. So to answer your question this alternative seems not to work although I successfully sent a Fax which I selected from the "browser" in hp-sendfax. Do you have further hints ? regards, -- Wolfgang Schlüschen Aaron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 10.08.2007 00:25 To "Wolfgang Schlueschen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc hplip-help@lists.sourceforge.net Subject Re: [Hplip-help] hp-sendfax from OpenOffice or alternative ? Classification If possible try faxing using this method, open openoffice, print the document to the HP Fax queue. Leave openoffice open, run hp-sendfax, the document should appear in the queue and complete the fax. Does this work?

What I mean is : is it possible to add a 'Fax' Printer in OpenOffice by using spadmin and use hp-sendfax as print command? I'm using OpenSuSE 10.2, hplip-hpijs-2.7.7-21.1 and hplip-2.7.7-21.1. I used spadmin to add a 'Fax' Printer. Command to 'print' is: /usr/bin/hp-sendfax -n --gg -f(PHONE) (TMP) Once I started to print from OpenOffice to my printer ( HPOJ 7310 ) the printer dials the number, connects to the fax on the other end of the line and seems to send the first page. Waiting for several minutes nothing seems to happen. Then the connection is ended withouth successfully sending the fax. Starting hp-sendfax from command line works fine. Does anyone know what's wrong here ? Is there an alternative like using lpr and an option like the number which has to be used for dialing ? I really appreciate the work which has been done for in the hplip project the last two printers my wife and I bought were an OfficeJet D135 and HPOJ 7310. Both were bought because of the support for Linux!
