What is a EOF or NL
I have been a long time trying to print anything on freebsd, as some know. Everything seems to be working new but nothing is printed. Today I reboot the computer and behold a page printed. This implied to me that the printer never receives a New Line or EOF or whatever the printer requires to proceed printing what it has just received.

Alter permission on the device nodes chmod 0660 /dev/ulpt0 2. chgrp cupsd /dev/ulpt0 3. Add yourself to cupsd group by editing file /etc/groups I didn't have to do any of this. 4.

If I added a ? to the end ( http://localhost:631/?), then the page was displayed. NOTE: 1. Your printer is using foo2zjs reversed engineered driver which you must compile from ports. People have reported mixed results with the driver! You have to compile the driver before you start adding the printer. Seems to me, for HP printers, the hpijs driver is the right choice. print/hpijs 2. You might need to disable your firewall or at least port 631 which is used by Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) which is in turned used by CUPS. Only if you want to be a print server. If you're just printing from a workstation, you don't need to worry about incoming traffic on 631. Unable to retrieve the printer list. Error message received from manager: Connection to CUPS server failed. Check that the CUPS server is correctly installed and running. Error: localhost: read failed (14).
