It should offer 80, 443, 515, 9100, 631 depending on the protocols it uses. > Then when I point firefox to localhost:631 cups's behaviour has changed.

Hmm ... something must be amiss in your setup. When I go to the Administration tab and click to add another printer the familiar cupsd GUI offers various protocols to choose from. Have you set USE="X"? Bear in mind, I don't use any network upnp autoconfiguration service on my LAN and therefore my use flags may be different to yours: $ equery u cups [ Legend : U - final flag setting for installation] [: I - package is installed with flag ] [ Colors : set, unset ] * Found these USE flags for net-print/cups-2.3.3-r1: U I + + X: Add support for X11 - - abi_x86_32 : 32-bit (x86) libraries + + acl : Add support for Access Control Lists + + dbus : Enable dbus support for anything that needs it (gpsd, gnomemeeting, etc) - - debug: Enable extra debug codepaths, like asserts and extra output. If you want to get meaningful backtraces see https://wiki.gentoo.org/ wiki/Project:Quality_Assurance/Backtraces - - kerberos : Add kerberos support - - lprng-compat : Do not install lp... binaries so cups and lprng can coexist. + + pam : Add support for PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) - DANGEROUS to arbitrarily flip + + ssl : Add support for SSL/TLS connections (Secure Socket Layer / Transport Layer Security) - - static-libs : Build static versions of dynamic libraries as well - - systemd : Enable use of systemd-specific libraries and features like socket activation or session tracking + + threads : Add threads support for various packages.

You haven't locked down the printer itself to limit which IP addresses it will allow connections from?

In the past, I've had a few go out. I replace them when needed. The biggest issue with power around here, sags or just total blinks. Our power company has surge arrestors in several places along the lines. Sometimes when I'm driving down the road, I see them. They place different kinds of protection devices to help protect from different power issues. Some are just a basic spark gap that when the voltage gets to high it sparks and some are large cans which work like a large MOV. Very effective given the high voltages on the wires. Sometimes after a large storm comes through, I see them in the bucket trucks replacing them. No telling how many TVs or deep freezers that may have saved. >> End of life. That is my bet.

As > long as both are kept low they will last long(er). They may be OK at the moment but what about a month down the road? Six months down the road? Yea, the one with the most pressure, read that as heat, voltage and other conditions, may pop first but the others may follow suite sometime after that. The thing is ten years old and the other caps are likely the same age. Of course, power supplies nowadays have really good protection. Odds are it won't do any damage outside the power supply itself but there is always a risk. Given the price of a decent power supply, it may be better to just buy a new one. It is tempting tho.

[gentoo-user] Network printer not being found
Afternoon all, Before my trials with booting, and eventually rebuilding everything from the ground up, my Lexmark C2425 printer was working fine. Now the KDE system settings printer applet can't detect it, even though pinging it works. Then when I point firefox to localhost:631 cups's behaviour has changed. If I click Adding Printers and Classes, instead of a dialogue to let me add a printer I now get a help page telling me how to do it at the command line. Even if I do manage to add the printer, cups reports that it isn't responding. I take this to mean I'm not using the right protocol. I've tried IPP, IPPS, HTTP and HTTPS, following that help page. Package.use is the same as before, and I've tried with cups-browsed both running and not. What am I missing? -- Regards, Peter.

I have a 13-year old plasma digital, and get the same effect. Back in the 1940's, and up until the advent of ATSC, TV sets used CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) displays. As they aged, the picture shrank, and the annoying vertical blanking info bar at the top of the picture came into view. To prevent this, manufacturers *DELIBERATELY* oversized the picture, so that as the TV aged, the picture would still fill the entire screen. This is entirely unnecessary on digital TV sets, where vertical blanking info doesn't exist, and the picture size is fixed, and never shrinks. But some manufacturers are effing idiots and *DELIBERATELY* build in overscan on digital TVs!!! Check your TV's handbook, and see if it has a "fullpixel" setting or something similar in the setup menu. Failing that your best bet in X is "xrandr"; emerge it if you don't have it. In a gui terminal (e.g. xterm), execute something like... xrandr --scale '1.25x1.25' ...This downscales the width (1st number) and height (2nd number) to 80% of their original size, because 1 / 1.25 = 0.8 You'll have to play around with the width and height parameters to get something that fills your screen without overscanning. Interpolation may result in blurry fonts. If so, throw in one of... --filter 'bilinear' --filter 'nearest' ...on the command line and see if it helps. xrandr can do a bunch of "interesting" stuff if you want. You might also want try... xrandr --setmonitor name geometry outputs ...to tweak image size.
