Hello All,
I've got an HP laserjet 2300 which is plugged into the usb port on my
RHEL5 server so it shows up as
DeviceURI hp:/usb/hp_LaserJet_2300_series?serial=CNCFF60878
in /etc/cups/printers.conf. It refuses to print though. The cups
status page always shows "open print channel failed; will retry in 30
seconds..." unless I disconnect the printer in which case it shows that
it's not connected.
I can't see anything vaguely relevant the cups log files, I've tried
disconnecting and reconnecting, I've tried power cycling the printer,
I've rebooted the server and nothing makes any difference except that I
can get the printer to admit it's not connected (googling seemed to
suggest that power cycling the printer would do the trick, but all I
found apart from that was sympathy for the problem).
Has anyone else seen something like this and, more to the point, does
anyone know how to fix it?
jch
