I am trying to add a Novell iPrint server managed printer to SUSE 10.0.
I have installed the iPrint client RPM
(novell-iprint-xclient-sl-1.0.20051215-2, which is the version offered
by the web page managing the printers). I am trying with this command:
# /opt/novell/iprint/bin/iprntcmd -a ipp://mma/ipp/MMA-HP4300-1
iprntcmd v04.15.00
Adding printer ipp://mma/ipp/MMA-HP4300-1.
Failed to add printer ipp://mma/ipp/MMA-HP4300-1.
Group Info: IPRINT-lib
Error Code: 4111 (0x100F)
Error Msg: iPrint Lib - The administrator may not have assigned a
driver or the server may not support printer/driver installation for
this platform.
Debug Msg: IPRINTDownloadPrinterDriver - driver download not
supported by the server
I can guess that the problem is that the iPrint server does not have the
needed Linux drivers. When I talk to the sysadmins (who do not do
Linux), what files should I be asking them to make available? Would it
be .ppd files? Assuming this is the case, and that I do not get them to
install the missing files, can't I use a local .ppd file? If it must
come from the server, where can I tell them to get the missing Linux
drivers?
This (iPrint) is all new to me.
