Excuse me : I speak French. I think that Scribus is wonderful software. But...
I am using Scribus on a machine running Debian Etch. I'm trying to print to an
HP DeskJet 870CXi through CUPS. I make the selections on the print
setup menus, but nothing prints. I don't even see the file in the printer's job
list. I'm assuming that I haven't set something up correctly, but
what?
1) Softwares :
Debian Etch (=testing); kernel 2.6.15-1-686.
Scribus 1.2.4.1.dfsg-1
Cupsys 1.1.23-12
libcupsys2-dev 1.1.23-12 (package installed before Scribus)
2) Printer : HP Deskjet 870CXi non PostScript (works very well with OpenOffice
org)
3) Fonts :
Nimbus Sans L Regular, Luxi Sans Regular, Bitstream Vera, ...
4) Observations :
41)In the box "print configuration"
a) if I click the button Deskjet 870CXi :
I see in terminal "lpr : Deskjet 870CXi : unknown printer"
b) if I use command
lpr ${DeskJet_870CXi:+'-P'}${Deskjet_870CXi}
then the printer takes out a sheet with the text:
%!PS-Adobe-3.0
%%For:
%%Title:
%%Creator: Scribus1.2.4.1
%%Pges: 1
42) Scribus prints very well in Windows XP with the same printer HP Deskjet
870CXi.
Frustration! Big frustration!
5) Questions.
How print a -sla file in Linux?
Special settings in "options"?
Same problem with Suse 10.0.
Same problem with Debian Etch and Scribus ng.
6) Thank you.
