[Bug 98520] Re: Feisty UVF ER: New HPLIP 1.7.3 release fixes lots of bugs
Johnny Levai, it is correct that the HP Toolbox does not work without python-qt3. The step 2 of my test program should show whether the user gets a decent error message now, which tells him to install python-qt3 if he wants to use the Toolbox, and according to all testers including you this is the case now. -- Feisty UVF ER: New HPLIP 1.7.3 release fixes lots of bugs https://launchpad.net/bugs/98520 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Dave, thank you for the tests. After I have asked you for doing them Raghu from HP told me that there is a bug in the HPIJS driver and he is working on fixing it. The bug was already there in HPLIP 1.7.1, so no downgrading is required. The bug is not a problem of the alignment. -- Feisty UVF ER: New HPLIP 1.7.3 release fixes lots of bugs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/98520 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 98520] Re: Feisty UVF ER: New HPLIP 1.7.3 release fixes lots of bugs
Dave White, thank you very much for your long report. Did you download my packages AFTER 2007-03-30 13:26:10 CEST? If you are not sure, re-download and install them again, as I have replaced them by new packages at that time. My new version contains a fix concerning parallel printers, so it can be helpful on your problems. printerbuginfo missing stderr complaint that No packages found matching libgnomeprint2.2-0. This is no problem. The script checks the presence and version of a certain amount of packages. It perhaps simply lacks an update for a recent change in Feisty. For our test this is not relevant, as it is not affected by libgnomeprint2. Step 2. HPLIP fails to start. Get bouncing icon for 3 minutes. Is there a way to kill it? Rebooted. No HP FAX/Scan capability so skipped to step 3. Sorry, I did not say that test step 2 does not apply to Kubuntu. The situation of missing Python Qt in Kubuntu does not exist. The fallback which I wanted to trigger in this step is irrelevant for Kubuntu. So ignore this problem. This is neither a bug in the HPLIP packaging nor a regression in HPLIP 1.7.3, it is a bug in my testing scheme presented here. Test page has banding in graphic. [...] CUPS recommended gutenprint. Set it to crop, printed test page. No banding present!!! As the banding problem occurs only with HPLIP and not with Gutenprint this seems to be a bug in the HPIJS driver. Did this problem already occur before you updated to HPLIP 1.7.3? Does it persist if you downgrade to 1.7.1 (instructions in my testing step 15). Don, Raghu, Aaron, can you check whether the HPIJS driver of HPLIP 1.7.3 works correctly with the HP DeskJet 960C device class? Bottom of bounding box (line below hp logo) is clipped, probably because it defaults to A4 paper. (Couldn't you use my timezone to guess I'd want letter?) Check the paper size default setting in ~/.cups/lpoptions and in /etc/cups/ppd/your printer.ppd. How is it set? Don, Raghu, Aaron, how do you set the default paper size when you create a queue with hp-setup. I observed in older HPLIP versions that I always got Letter and I need A4 as default in Europe. The best solution would be to check /etc/papersize and/or the internationalization setting (command locale, LC_... environment variables instead of using a static default setting. Print control tab display is clipped, in middle of The printer is currently NOT SET AS DEFAULT, approximately mid-e of The. This is a purely cosmetic problem, see my answer to Johnny Levai in my previous posting. OpenOffice subdialog is a subset of controls offered by HPLIP. This is correct. OpenOffice.org only shows the printer-specific options (defined in /etc/cups/ppd/your printer.ppd) and not the options provided by CUPS (N-up, Brightness, Gamma, ...). This is a missing feature of OpenOffice.org. File a feature request on the OpenOffice.org web site. Current toolbox settings do NOT appear in OpenOffice Print dialog, even though OO started after changes were made. Requested Landscape, 2 sheets/page in toolbox. OO printed as 2 individual portraits. OpenOffice.org seems to save printer options per-document. So if you start OpenOffice with an existing document, you will not get you option changes from the HP Toolbox. You should get them if you start OpenOffice.org with a new document. If your setting are correctly saved in ~/.cups/lpoptions but do not appear in OpenOffice.org, file a bug against OpenOffice.org. Step 8. With Landscape, 2 up, 2 thin borders, mirror print, text file prints but text and right edge of box are in unprintable region on right side of page. [I was expecting a booklet style printout, but that didn't happen.] At first make sure that the default paper size is set to Letter (Use the KDE Printing Manager, the Printers tab of the CUPS web interface, or sudo lpadmin -p your printer -o PageSize=Letter on the command line). If the problem persists, unprintable margins in the PPD file are not correct. Did you have the same problem with HPLIP 1.7.1? Don, Raghu, Aaron, can you check the unprintable margins for the HP DeskJet 960 device class? Step 11 - No HPLIP printer device, used HP960 parport. Used HPLIP to print test page. It requested me to load plain paper even though printer still had paper. HPLIP does not check whether there is actually paper in the printer. It always tells you to insert paper. This was the case also in every older HPLIP version which I know. So it is no regression. HPLIP test page prints black and white low-res graphic, despite CUPS indicationg RGB or CMYK color modes. Check the option settings inside the HP Toolbox. Or close the Toolbox, remove ~/.cups/lpoptions and start the Toolbox again. Banding and clipping w cdj970 driver, though now banding runs parallel to each edge of color wheel. Right edge and bottom of bounding box missing. The cdj970 driver is obsolete, do not use it. HPIJS and Gutenprint should give much better

I've carried out the changes / tests as requested by Till. Details are in the attached file. Overall, the problem was resolved by deleting the old conf file. I have not gotten the gnome-cups-manager to successfully set up the printer. HP-Tools and CUPS web interface are working great as long as I select the ppd file I downloaded from the HP Linux Printing web site and not the one included in the package.

Till - I ran low on black ink and replaced the cartridge, which triggered an automatic re-calibration (while the printer was under the control of the Windows personality of my system). The banding during alignment was still present. I took it through all 3 cleaning steps and the magenta still had a weak stripe through it. Toolbox indicates plenty of color ink, but the printer gives me a :-( at the color cartridge. I don't know if the 78+ is incompatible with my 960C, or it's just defective.

Applied updates, rebooted, installed latest hplip packages. Copied form10align.py into /ui directory. Removed queue. ~/.cups/lpoptions contained nothing but DEST HP960C mirror=true. Removed the lpoptions file anyway. /etc/cups/ppd directory was empty. /etc/papersize was set to a4. (Who's responsible for initializing this? This seems to be the source of my problems.) Manually changed to letter. Used HPLIPS to install printer, took the recommended printer. Aligned via the toolbox. [Printer had been aligned in Windows when cartridges installed. Shouldn't have needed alignment, but did it per request.] ALIGNMENT PRINTOUT HAS BANDING in Magenta pattern (roughly the 2nd quarter from the bottom). This banding also appears in composite grey pattern, which is built with Magenta. Used CUPS to change to 1200 DPI, Photo and reprinted HPLIPS Test page. NO BANDING in photo! Used HPLIPS to change back to Controlled by Printout Mode, Normal (auto detect paper type), and reprinted HPLIPS Test page. BANDING in photo! Retried 2 up, reverse print. STILL runs off page. (KDE Print Manager and HPLIPS both indicate Letter sized paper.) For what it's worth, OpenOffice seems to maintain its own printer settings. Switching the toolbox to Landscape, then starting OO with a blank page, bring up its printer settings and it indicates Portrait. Additionally, if using the HPLIPS driver, there's no option for CUPS to change the orientation. I'll downgrade to 1.7.1 to see if the problems are still there, but it's not going to happen tonight.

[Bug 98520] Re: Feisty UVF ER: New HPLIP 1.7.3 release fixes lots of bugs
Greg Aumann, thank you for your test report. First thing to say about your report is that nothing of what you reported is a regression on the change from HPLIP 1.7.1 to 1.7.3. The printing issue with the P2015 you reported already for HPLIP 1.7.1 in bug 99316 and I have already informed the upstream developers about the problem. The disappearing of the menu items for HPLIP has nothing to do with HPLIP 1.7.1 or 1.7.3. It is an intended change of our packaging to fix bug 67892, bug 86893, and bug 88290. We do not show the hp-toolbox menu entry br default because python-qt3 is not installed by default (at least not for Ubuntu and Xubuntu). So for the statistics we are now at 12 reports where at least 11 do not contain anything which can be a regression on the update from HPLIP 1.7.1 to 1.7.3. Greg, for your printing problem, try the following two tests: 1. Try the PostScript driver instead of the Foomatc/HPIJS. If this works the problem is in HPIJS 2. Do sudo /etc/init.d/hplip stop sudo modprobe -r usblp sudo modprobe usblp lpinfo -v You get something like direct usb://HP/LaserJet%20P2015 now start gnome-cups-add and add a print queue. Under the auto-detected entries choose the one which contains your printer's model name (and nowhere HPLIP). If this print queue works correctly, the bug is in the communication between HPLIP and the printer. Don, Raghu, Aaron, can you check the problem with the empty toner bar Greg is reporting in step 6? Greg, the problem with the paper size in hp-setup is known and was there already in 1.7.1. It is simply the case that hp-setup does not set the papaer size at all. It simply stays with the default setting of the PPD file.

by downloading the .deb files and installing - hplip - hplip-data - hplip-doc - hpijs should I also install hpijs_ppds? I didn't install it. When I do the uninstall it complained that there was no hpijs-ppd package. 2. Go into the menus and try to call HP Toolbox (in System - Preferences), HP Sendfax and HP Fax Address Book (in Applications - Office). If they are not there start the menu editor (System - Preferences - Main Menu) and activate them. Then call the programs again and tell what happens. can't get these to show up in the menus. Hp-toolbox is checked in the menu editor. when I start hp-toolbox, hp-sendfax and hp-fab from the commandline it complains about not having pyqt3 present. 3. Do sudo apt-get install python-qt3 and repeat step 2. What happens now? they run ok from the commandline. So previous crash is fixed. 5. Follow the steps in the wizard which has appeared now to set up your print queues. Does it work? Do all devices get detected correctly? Do you get offered the correct drivers/PPD files? Do this for all your HP printers and multi-function devices. Let the field for printing a test page checked. Does the test page come out correctly? printer is correctly detected. get offered a foomatic ppd and a postscript driver which has recommended in the name but the ppd driver is selected when the dialog opens. Chose the recommended driver. At install time the test page comes out correctly except that it extends a little too far to the right and the right border goes over the edge of the page. 6. In the HP Toolbox go through the tabs, are the ink/toner levels correctly displayed? Is the front panel display correctly reproduced (only devices with monochrome text LCD)? Can you clean the print heads (only inkjets)? toner supply is marked as good which should be correct as it is new. But the bar graph is empty. 7 Can you set the printing options on the Print Settings tab? Are all options shown which you can also see in the Properties sub-dialog of the printing dialog of OpenOffice.org or under right-click - Properties in the gnome-cups-manager (System - Preferences - Printing)? Does changing these options influence the printout (user who runs the Toolbox and who prints must be the same). Does printing from applications work correctly? Do your typical printing tasks. hp-toolbox Print Settings General Media Size was Letter. It didn't pick up that I had A4 paper loaded in the printer. It took several attempts at changing it before the change took. 8. Do the buttons for the functions on the first tab of the Toolbox work? Printing button sort of works. Tried to print a one line text file. Printer processed for a while and flashed the orange warning light indicating 'continuable error'. After pressing the go button (needed to hold it down for about a second) the page came out and was correct. If I try to print a test page from System Administration Printing Properties Print Test Page I get the same continuable error and it comes out after pressing the go button. Sometimes it is several centimetres too far up the page and so the top is clipped. I also tried printing a five page document from openoffice. This document was fairly complex. Again I got the continuable error and after pressing the go button the document printed and printed correctly. 13. Especially report if something does not work any more as it worked with HPLIP 1.7.1 on Feisty (a regression). only regression I see is hp-toolbox not appearing in the menus 14. Test also whether you can reproduce the bugs listed in the initial posting. If one or more of them persist, please tell here. gui crashing bug is fixed. Printing bug is not fixed. 16.

[Bug 98520] Re: Feisty UVF ER: New HPLIP 1.7.3 release fixes lots of bugs
Johnny Levai, thank you very much for your report. For point 7 note that the HP Toolbox considers your settings as personal settings and saves them in ~/.cups/lpoptions (please check and report here whether they really appear there, and when: directly when setting them? When switching to another tab in the Toolbox? When closing the Toolbox?). It does not save them for system-wide use in /etc/cups/ppd/your printer.ppd. HP Toolbox is considered a user tool, not an admin tool. To test printing with the changed options, run the apps from the same user account as you are running HP Toolbox from. If the options are correctly set in your ~/.cups/lpoptions file but applications do not obey them, file a bug against the applications, as they do not use the CUPS API correctly then. Perhaps some applications save printer options also per-document and not per-user (you can see this if you save your document, the Save function gets grayed out then, you change printing options and print and after that the Save button does not stay grayed out). The cut-off line in the toolbox is a purely cosmetic problem. Nothing is lost, there is no more line. So all functionality of the Toolbox is conserved. The bug can be in HPLIP or Python Qt and the HP developers are aware of it. Don, if you have a patch to fix this problem, I am very grateful if you post it here. None of these two problems are regressions from HPLIP 1.7.1. -- Feisty UVF ER: New HPLIP 1.7.3 release fixes lots of bugs https://launchpad.net/bugs/98520 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 98520] Re: Feisty UVF ER: New HPLIP 1.7.3 release fixes lots of bugs
As for the A4 vs. Letter, hp-setup installs the printer using whatever defaults are in the PPD and/or are supplied by CUPS. HPLIP does not alter any settings during adding a printer. As you suggested previously, I may change this in the future. On 4/1/07, Till Kamppeter [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dave White, thank you very much for your long report. Did you download my packages AFTER 2007-03-30 13:26:10 CEST? If you are not sure, re-download and install them again, as I have replaced them by new packages at that time. My new version contains a fix concerning parallel printers, so it can be helpful on your problems. printerbuginfo missing stderr complaint that No packages found matching libgnomeprint2.2-0. This is no problem. The script checks the presence and version of a certain amount of packages. It perhaps simply lacks an update for a recent change in Feisty. For our test this is not relevant, as it is not affected by libgnomeprint2. Step 2. HPLIP fails to start. Get bouncing icon for 3 minutes. Is there a way to kill it? Rebooted. No HP FAX/Scan capability so skipped to step 3. Sorry, I did not say that test step 2 does not apply to Kubuntu. The situation of missing Python Qt in Kubuntu does not exist. The fallback which I wanted to trigger in this step is irrelevant for Kubuntu. So ignore this problem. This is neither a bug in the HPLIP packaging nor a regression in HPLIP 1.7.3, it is a bug in my testing scheme presented here. Test page has banding in graphic. [...] CUPS recommended gutenprint. Set it to crop, printed test page. No banding present!!! As the banding problem occurs only with HPLIP and not with Gutenprint this seems to be a bug in the HPIJS driver. Did this problem already occur before you updated to HPLIP 1.7.3? Does it persist if you downgrade to 1.7.1 (instructions in my testing step 15). Don, Raghu, Aaron, can you check whether the HPIJS driver of HPLIP 1.7.3 works correctly with the HP DeskJet 960C device class? Bottom of bounding box (line below hp logo) is clipped, probably because it defaults to A4 paper. (Couldn't you use my timezone to guess I'd want letter?) Check the paper size default setting in ~/.cups/lpoptions and in /etc/cups/ppd/your printer.ppd. How is it set? Don, Raghu, Aaron, how do you set the default paper size when you create a queue with hp-setup. I observed in older HPLIP versions that I always got Letter and I need A4 as default in Europe. The best solution would be to check /etc/papersize and/or the internationalization setting (command locale, LC_... environment variables instead of using a static default setting. Print control tab display is clipped, in middle of The printer is currently NOT SET AS DEFAULT, approximately mid-e of The. This is a purely cosmetic problem, see my answer to Johnny Levai in my previous posting. OpenOffice subdialog is a subset of controls offered by HPLIP. This is correct. OpenOffice.org only shows the printer-specific options (defined in /etc/cups/ppd/your printer.ppd) and not the options provided by CUPS (N-up, Brightness, Gamma, ...). This is a missing feature of OpenOffice.org. File a feature request on the OpenOffice.org web site. Current toolbox settings do NOT appear in OpenOffice Print dialog, even though OO started after changes were made. Requested Landscape, 2 sheets/page in toolbox. OO printed as 2 individual portraits. OpenOffice.org seems to save printer options per-document. So if you start OpenOffice with an existing document, you will not get you option changes from the HP Toolbox. You should get them if you start OpenOffice.org with a new document. If your setting are correctly saved in ~/.cups/lpoptions but do not appear in OpenOffice.org, file a bug against OpenOffice.org. Step 8. With Landscape, 2 up, 2 thin borders, mirror print, text file prints but text and right edge of box are in unprintable region on right side of page. [I was expecting a booklet style printout, but that didn't happen.] At first make sure that the default paper size is set to Letter (Use the KDE Printing Manager, the Printers tab of the CUPS web interface, or sudo lpadmin -p your printer -o PageSize=Letter on the command line). If the problem persists, unprintable margins in the PPD file are not correct. Did you have the same problem with HPLIP 1.7.1? Don, Raghu, Aaron, can you check the unprintable margins for the HP DeskJet 960 device class? Step 11 - No HPLIP printer device, used HP960 parport. Used HPLIP to print test page. It requested me to load plain paper even though printer still had paper. HPLIP does not check whether there is actually paper in the printer. It always tells you to insert paper. This was the case also in every older HPLIP version which I know. So it is no regression. HPLIP test page prints black and white low-res graphic, despite CUPS indicationg RGB or CMYK color modes.

Don, Aaron, Raghu, please check whether there is a bug with the HPIJS part for the device class to which the DeskJet 960C belongs. Dave, please check whether this problem is a regression from HPLIP 1.7.1 or whether 1.7.1 exposes the same behavior. For now the results look well: For 8 of the 11 users there are no regressions for sure and they will have perfectly working printing with a Feisty with HPLIP 1.7.3.

** Description changed: Binary package hint: hplip Last Friday HPLIP 1.7.3 was released. It does not only fix 9 bugs which were reported to Launchpad but also at least ~80 bugs discovered upstream or in other distributions (see ChangeLog) got fixed.

In addition, once packaging HPLIP I have fixed the numerously reported problems with the GUI tools in the menus and python-qt3 not being installed by default (3 Launchpad bugs, one with 8 duplicates) in all flavours but Kubuntu. Also the newest HP printer models get supported with this release. The following bugs got fixed: From the new upstream release: https://launchpad.net/bugs/82546 https://launchpad.net/bugs/83936 https://launchpad.net/bugs/85805 https://launchpad.net/bugs/87695 + https://launchpad.net/bugs/91157 + https://launchpad.net/bugs/91563 https://launchpad.net/bugs/92237 https://launchpad.net/bugs/94013 https://launchpad.net/bugs/94015 https://launchpad.net/bugs/94823 https://launchpad.net/bugs/95489 Packaging: https://launchpad.net/bugs/67892 https://launchpad.net/bugs/86893 https://launchpad.net/bugs/88290 Here is the Ubuntu ChangeLog (it contains a complete copy of the upstream ChangeLog/Release Notes): hplip (1.7.3-0ubuntu1) feisty; urgency=low . * New upstream release (closes: LP#82546, LP#83936, LP#85805, LP#87695, LP#92237, LP#94013, LP#94015, LP#94823, LP#95489) * HPLIP 1.7.3 + Added the nopjl / tag to hpijs-generator.in. This will remove the extra foomatic PJL options from most HP LaserJet PPD files. The extra foomatic PJL options caused some HPIJS PCL data issues. This fixes a PCL XL error on LJ1010/1012 that can occur on different PCs (closes: LP#92237). + Fixed defect (An error occurs when send a fax coverpage with or character in Regarding or Optional Message field.) + Removed banner pages from fax print settings + Altered hpfax: device discovery output to match hp: scheme (CUPS 1.2 only) + Removed the wait cursor during the password entry screen [reported by Johannes] + Added error messages and suppressed content in toolbox when device is not found or unsupported + A new configure option was added --enable-cups11-build, this option controls the hp/hpfax device discovery message when no devices are found. If needed, this option provides backward compatibility with CUPS 1.1.x applications. With --enable-cups11-build set the no_device_found message is displayed during device discovery by the hp backend. With --disable-cups11-build (default) set the backend prints a scheme based on the following conditions. Condition 1 - no daemons output nothing stdout return exit 1 Condition 2 - daemons running, no HP devices, output scheme direct hp Unknown HP Printer (HPLIP) return exit 0 Condition 3 - daemons running, HP printer found, output URI direct hp:/... hp model HP model HPLIP deviceid return exit 0 (closes: LP#87695) + Changed the way that hp-setup was being launched from the toolbox, it was hanging on Edgy + Added Tools Printer Information + Added a check for 'lpr' for Debian installation (to force install of cupsys-bsd) + Moved the password prompt in the text/CLI installer past the distro confirm/select prompts to handle a problem with Mepis + Made a change to determine if networking is working during installation. + Added a private copy of sanei_init_debug to libsane-hpaio. This will remove the libsane.so dependency which was a problem for WINE. + Fixed defect (PPD file foomatic:HP-PSC_2400-hpijs.ppd can not be found when set up PSC 2400 in interactive mode, closes LP#95489) + Fixed a page update defect in the toolbox (when switching devices, update page correctly) + Re-wrote hpaioAdvanceDocument function in libsane-hpaio. This change only effects SCL scanners with an ADF (ie: inkjet all-in-ones). This fixes a double-feed ADF issue which occurred when scanning a single page. + Fixed defect (An unexpected error occurs when perform color calibration job in GUI mode on photosmart c7180.) + Some toolbox UI improvements + Converted hp-print to new UI + Fixed some defects in scrollprintview and devmgr + Added network detection to text/CLI installer + Toolbox

I have also done all the tests of HPLIP 1.7.3 and did not find any regression.

2. Go into the menus and try to call HP Toolbox (in System - Preferences), HP Sendfax and HP Fax Address Book (in Applications - Office). If they are not there start the menu editor (System - Preferences - Main Menu) and activate them. Then call the programs again and tell what happens. They don't seem to be visible at all in Xfce. When i start them from command line (with STARTED_FROM_MENU=yes), they open a dialog that complains about PyQt not being installed. After hitting OK in hp-fab's dialog, the dialog seems to hang and there's a 'hp-fab ' command line visible in the terminal. 'STARTED_FROM_MENU=yes /usr/bin/hp-fab /dev/null' works. I assume that /dev/null is opened as standard input when it is started from the menu. 3. Do sudo apt-get install python-qt3 and repeat step 2. What happens now? hp-toolbox: The following error is printed to the terminal every couple of seconds, and apport keeps opening a 'Sorry, the program toolbox closed unexpectedly' window, until i kill hp-toolbox. warning: No status available for device. Traceback (most recent call last): File /usr/lib/hplip/ui/devmgr4.py, line 443, in TimedRefresh self.UpdateDevice() File /usr/lib/hplip/ui/devmgr4.py, line 577, in UpdateDevice reread_cups_printers=False) File /usr/lib/hplip/base/device.py, line 1456, in queryDevice log.debug(r%d-kind%d-type%d % (r_value, agent_kind, agent_type)) UnboundLocalError: local variable 'agent_kind' referenced before assignment hp-sendfax opens a dialog that says No devices found. I don't have a scanner or a modem, so that is probably expected. hp-fab opens the Fax Address Book window correctly. 4. Call hp-setup 5. Follow the steps in the wizard which has appeared now to set up your print queues. Does it work? Seems to work. Do all devices get detected correctly? Yes. Do you get offered the correct drivers/PPD files? Yes. Does the test page come out correctly? Yes. 6. In the HP Toolbox go through the tabs, are the ink/toner levels correctly displayed? The Functions tab is empty when hp-toolbox is initially started. The program keeps spewing the error message to the terminal. When i switch to another tab and come back to Functions, Print documents or files and Scan a document or image are the available choices. The Status tab is empty. When switching to it, the following is printed to the terminal: fatal error: Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/lib/hplip/ui/scrollview.py, line 144, in onDeviceChange self.fillControls() File /usr/lib/hplip/ui/scrollstatus.py, line 101, in fillControls for x in self.cur_device.hist: AttributeError: 'Device' object has no attribute 'hist' The Supplies tab says ERROR: Supplies status is not supported on this device. The Tools, Print Settings and Print Control tabs look normal. 7 Can you set the printing options on the Print Settings tab? Yes. Are all options shown which you can also see in the Properties sub-dialog of the printing dialog of OpenOffice.org or under right-click - Properties in the gnome-cups-manager (System - Preferences - Printing)? I don't have gnome-cups-manager or OO.o installed. The only options the Xfce printer manager shows are page size, printout mode (quality), media source, double-sided printing and printout mode. hp-toolbox shows a lot more. Does changing these options influence the printout Yes. Does printing from applications work correctly? Do your typical printing tasks. Yes. 8. Do the buttons for the functions on the first tab of the Toolbox work? Print does; a scanner have i not. 11. Remove your print queues and re-create them with the web interface of CUPS (http://localhost:631/). Click the Administration tab. If asked for login and password, enter your login and password. When selecting the Device, choose devices with HPLIP. Try out printing (repeat step 7) and faxing (step 10). Seems to work, although the following appeared in syslog: hpijs: WARNING: printmode mismatch with pen, tray, etc. 12. Remove your print queues and re-create them with the gnome-cups-manager (System - Preferences - Printing, if gnome-cups-manager crashes, see bug 91218) or with the KDE Printing Manager in case of Kubuntu. When selecting the detected printer or printer port, choose devices with HPLIP. Is there something with device_not_found listed? Are there two absolutely equal entries in any of the lists? Try out printing (repeat step 7) and faxing (step 10). I used the Xfce printer manager. Seems to work. The same line about a printmode mismatch appeared in syslog. 16. If you are content with HPLIP 1.7.3, report here, too, and do not uninstall HPLIP 1.7.3. Use it, and if you find a bug later, report it here in an additional comment. Seems like i'm going to keep using 1.7.3. The only problems i had were with hp-toolbox, and i usually don't need it anyway. ** Attachment added: ion's printingbuginfo (1.7.1)

Johan Kiviniemi, thank you for your report. Johan Kiviniemi is using the HP LaserJet 1100, a print-only device, on the parallel port. For point 2: It is normal that you do not see the menu entries as they are disabled by default. Activate them with the menu editor (I hope Xubuntu has a menu editor). I did not test to run the STARTED_FROM_MENU=yes hp-fab from the command line. I tested only via the menu and there everything was OK. Please try to activate the menu entries and try to use them. We can add the /dev/null to the command line in the hp-fab.desktop if needed. For point 3: Don, Raghu, can you look at this and send a patch for HPLIP 1.7.3 (and also for 1.7.1 if this is a bug in 1.7.1, too). For point 6: Don, Raghu, can you look at this (first tab empty and error messages on console, Traceback on Status tab, supplies readout for LJ1100) and send a patch for HPLIP 1.7.3 (and also for 1.7.1 if this is a bug in 1.7.1, too). It is possible that the LaserJet 1100 does not support supply level readout. Let's see what Don and Raghu say. For point 7: It is OK that the toolbox shows more options, as it also shows the cUPS-specific options where most printer setup tools show only the printer-specific options. For point 8: On your printer a scanner add-on can be installed. Therefore you have the button for scanning in the Toolbox. For point 11 and 12: Don, Raghu, is this warning in the syslog a real problem? Why is it there? For point 16: Johan Kiviniemi what is your opinion about HPLIP in Feisty: 1.7.1 or 1.7.3? I did not have any problems with the Toolbox, but I have only network and USB printers. Perhaps there is a problem with parallel port access for non-printing functions. Raghu?
