Pratical advice: Depending your need, you could also live without kernel relinking (KARL) in order to keep ulpt(4) disabled using config(8). I would still relink after an upgrade in order to have an unique /bsd (and not the one publicly available from internet). So it would be: - after an upgrade, reboot and wait relinking to be done (a fresh /bsd will be installed) - run `config -ef /bsd' and disable ulpt in the new (and unique) kernel - do *NOT* regenerate /var/db/kernel.SHA256 (so sha256 will mismatch) - reboot again and run on the new /bsd (with ulpt disabled) System will complains that relinking failed, but your /bsd with ulpt disabled will stay. Developer advice: mpi@ already pointed the right way to deal with it: make ulpt(4) and ugen(4) to coexist. This way you could use cupsd (using ugen) with a GENERIC kernel. see https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-tech=151618565000531=2 for details Thanks. -- Sebastien Marie
USB Printer Prebloms
I've had problems getting an old Brother printer to work (again) and have managed to locate/understand? the source of the problems. 1. ulpt must be disabled: # config -ef /bsd ukc> disable ulpt ukc> quit 2. modifying the kernel changes the kernel checksum so to get it to relink sha256 -h /var/db/kernel.SHA256 /bsd 3. relinking the kernel _re-enables_ ulpt. So I'm going to have install the build system and run thru the kernel patches after I figure out how to disable ulpt in the GENERIC.MP build. Does this sound like it will work?

Try the cups-filters package and follow the instructions given in the file /usr/local/share/doc/pkg-readmes/cups-filters You can't avoid the printer drivers from cups but you may be able to get away with running lpd(8) instead of cupsd. You will also need a2ps and a suitable printer driver (foo2zjs in my case). Here are the packages I use for my HP LaserJet 1020: a2ps-4.14p15format files for printing on PostScript printers cups-filters-1.25.6 OpenPrinting CUPS filters foo2zjs-20190909driver for ZjStream wire protocol compatible printers Note however that ulpt(4) recognizes my printer and loads firmware for it. If firmware is also required for your model to work (I have no idea if it is) then the ulpt driver would need to be modified to do that, too. $ cat /etc/printcap lp|local line printer|HP-LaserJet_1020:\ :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\ :sd=/var/spool/output/lpd:\ :lp=/dev/ulpt0:\ :if=/etc/foomatic/direct/filter.sh:\ :sh:\ :mx#0: And the filter script is this: $ cat /etc/foomatic/direct/filter.sh #!/bin/sh # for debugging: #echo "$*" >> /tmp/filter-args args=`getopt cw:l:i:j:n:h: $*` if [ $? -ne 0 ] then echo 'Usage: [-c] -wwidth -llength -iindent -n login -h host acct-file' exit 2 fi set -- $args while [ $# -ne 0 ] do case "$1" in -c) flag="$1"; shift;; -o|-w|-l|-i|-j|-n|-h) oarg="$2"; shift; shift;; --) shift; break;; esac done /usr/local/bin/a2ps -BRq --columns=1 -o - | \ /usr/local/bin/foomatic-rip -P HP-LaserJet_1020 \ --ppd /etc/foomatic/direct/HP-LaserJet_1020.ppd

In my belief, you _must install hpcups. And if you use the usb then you _must disable ulpt in the kernel. See /usr/local/share/doc/pkg-readmes/cups

Re: suggestions for USB printer (maybe even with scanner)?
A lot of people are mentioning the need to deal with the new lpr tools
being at /usr/local/bin.
I found that adding a symmlink from /usr/bin/lpr to /usr/local/bin/lpr,
etc. to help with programs that expect to find lpr at that exact
location.
Using a symlink will make life much easier with a few programs, since
everything finds what it needs at either location. You will need to
refresh the symlink after each upgrade. Backup the /usr/bin files just
in case you really do need them later.
Good luck! Printing is so damned easy or so brutally hard. ;-{)>

Re: suggestions for USB printer (maybe even with scanner)?
Hi Claus: USB printers are kind of difficult to set up on OpenBSD. You can read the instructions on USB setup in /usr/local/share/doc/pkg-readmes/cups. I never get USB printing to work on my OpenBSD 6.6. Instead I used a wireless Xerox Laser printer. Here is how I did it for a Xerox 6022 laser printer. I paid $150.00 USD for my Xerox 6022 Phasor To get this laser printer running over WiFi do: 0) Connect the Xerox Phaser 6022 to your wireless access point. I did this using a spare windows computer. I suppose you can do this through the little setup screen, on top of the laser printer. 1) Install the CUPS package. 2) Add the following line to your /etc/rc.conf.local file: pkg_scripts=cupsd. Reboot the computer to make sure CUPS is running. See man (8) rc.conf.local 3) From the CD that came with my Phaser 6022, I removed the file xerox-phaser-6022_1.0-22_all.deb. 4) This is an archive file. It contains your *.ppd. Do $ ar x xerox-phaser-6022_1.0-22_all.deb (See man (1) ar) 5) After extraction you will see data.tar.gz. That tarball contains the Xerox_Phaser_6022.ppd. Get the *.ppd with $ tar zxvf data.tar.gz 6) Move Xerox_Phaser_6022.ppd to /root. 7) Start a web browser and point it to "http://localhost:631;. 8) Select add a printer and login. I had to use my user account to login. Logging in as root would not work. You CUPS will probe your wireless network and you should see an address like 192.168.1.X, where X can be any number. It will also identify the printer as Xerox Phaser 6022. 9) Since there is no entry for Xerox, load the Xerox_Phaser_6022.ppd. 10) Complete the CUPS setup and you are ready to print You have to use the absolute path name /usr/local/bin/lpr, /usr/local/bin/lprm, /usr/local/bin/lpq and /usr/local/bin/lp to print with CUPS. LibreOffice prints with out modification. You can print photos and graphics (*jpeg, *.png , etc) with Firefox xpdf reguires the following line in the .xpdfrc: # Set the default PostScript file or command. psFile "|/usr/local/bin/lpr" # Set the default PostScript paper size -- this can be letter, legal, # A4, or A3. You can also specify a paper size as width and height # (in points).

Re: suggestions for USB printer (maybe even with scanner)?
I have had good luck on OpenBSD with a variety of HP printers using the hplip package and cups. (To use the latter, put /usr/local/bin before /usr/bin in your PATH to avoid confusion with lpr programs.) The xsane package does scanning on HP printers that have this function. I have connected them mainly via the network, but I don't see why direct usb connections wouldn't work as well.

Some people remove the ulpt driver to allow CUPS to interface easier with their printer. This solution has always irritated me, and I prefer using lpd to manage my printers. CUPS can still be used to print to an lpd based print server, the only difference is that CUPS isn't handling the spooling and network print jobs etc server-side. Obsd does not have FAQ about that, but freebsd has pretty good article: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/printing.html And almost everything covered by it is true for openbsd. This here is a good place to start: https://man.openbsd.org/lpd.8 No FAQ for printing, but the man pages are your friend. Many moons ago, I as complete rookie at Unix printing, managed to set up my friends restaurant using an OpenBSD lpd print server to drive all of his receipt and kitchen print jobs. I managed to pull this off using only the man pages. The OpenBSD man pages are a treasure trove of knowledge-- don't always depend on the FAQ's entirely! The FAQ serves to supplement the man pages, not replace them.

If I understand it correctly, this driver provides support for "USB printer class" ( http://www.usb.org/developers/docs/devclass_docs/usbprint11a021811.pdf ) It creates some kind of "channel" (like LPT port) which can be used to query printer status, obtain its ID etc. Application then sends plaintext or PCL or PostScript or whatever printer supports to this "channel". Sysadmin configures "printcap" by adding filters that convert data to PCL or postscript, and lpd creates "pool", while CUPS ties all layers providing IP Printing and other protocols to submit print jobs. Obsd does not have FAQ about that, but freebsd has pretty good article: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/printing.html And almost everything covered by it is true for openbsd.

I have successfully printed to several USB based printers in my time with OpenBSD, ranging from USB thermal receipt printers, USB restaurant dot matrix kitchen printers all the way up to your modern day consumer throw away HP printer. I also have had great success utilizing DB9/DB25 serial line printers with OpenBSD. With a bit of playing around with lpd(8) and your printcap(5) file, you can do some neat things and avoid having to remove the ulpt(4) driver from the kernel while still making the printer fully usable and available to CUPS and over the network.
Re: print usb printer by [ Google Cloud Print for Chromium ]
hi all . i at last find i can print if i use the printer which has both cups driver and wifi interface (for example EP-709A). so i do not need to use [ Google Cloud Print for Chromium ] . and i think it is impossible to print USB only printers . at this sate openbsd become everyday OS . --- regards

Usb printer problem after upgrade
Hi. I upgraded from a few months old -current snapshot to the August 1 i386 snapshot, and now any attempt to write to /dev/ulpt0 (my usb printer) results in Device busy. Booting with the old kernel - no problem, I can print. Is this a bug in the new snapshot? Is anyone else having issues with their USB printers with this snapshot? Thanks. ulpt0 at uhub0 port 2 configuration 1 interface 0 Hewlett-Packard hp LaserJet 2420 rev 2.00/1.00 addr 2 ulpt0: using bi-directional mode

usb printer speed
My usb printer works very slow under OpenBSD, I mean, when compared to other operating systems. According to dmesg, the printer operates through usb version 1. Is there any way, like kernel configuration or so, to make it operate under usb version 2? I'm asking because I want to erase that other operating system from my hard drive. Currently I only need it to print faster. Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com

If you're going to a surplus auction from a university, any of the older school hp lasrjet printers (4m+ 5m, etc. etc.) that do postscript would be a good pick. heavy as all hell, and not good on power (so you need to turn them off when you're not using it if you're paying the power bill) but you can still get cartridge refills easy for them.

Re: USB Printer Recommendation
Alright, well the disposition didn't have any cheap laser printers but I did find a HP DeskJet 810C for $15. I know you guys said stay away from inkjet printers, but the price was right and the hpijs driver says it supports it. It's connected via usb. I installed hpijs along with all it's dependencies. I then edited /etc/printcap with: lp|DeskJet:\ :lp=/dev/ulpt0:\ :af=/usr/local/share/ppd/HP/HP-DeskJEt_810C-hpijs.ppd.gz:\ :if=/usr/local/bin/foomatic-rip:\ :sd=/var/spool/output:\ :sh After starting lpd, I then tried to print with lpr, lpr /etc/printcap. The printer starts up and begins to print, but then the paper light comes on and after pressing it, a blank sheet comes out. Anybody have any thoughts? Is my printcap wrong? Thanks.

A used small-office laser is probably a better bet, but if you want cheap there's always the Dell 1110 (http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Dell-1100_Laser_Printer) and from what I see it looks like it should work with some configuration. Of course, Bob's right, getting a Postscript printer (or even PCL) is the way to go. I got a Dell 3100CN for ~$US260 shipped a while back, so keep your eyes peeled. It'll be a long time before I need another printer.

Re: usb printer problem
Hello, I had very similar problems with a HP 3845 following the same guide. I was advised to try apsfilter which is in ports but still had no luck. Eventually I tried using foomatic using the guide at http://www.jakemsr.com/openbsd/foomatic.html Worked for me, although it keeps printing using my now empty colour cartridge, and ignores my black one. Perhaps you'll have more luck. Regards, T On 18/03/06, Carlos Alberto Pereira Gomes [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I'm trying to configure an Epson Stylus C67 usb inkjet printer without success.

I have not tried the USB functionality, however I have a Kyocera FS-1020DN. My FS-1020DN also does postscript (in the printer), plus duplex, came with an internal 10/100 print server and does 20 A4 ppm. I have always just printed through the network. The duplex functionality half ejects the paper and brings it back through the printer, so the speed is more than halved when doing duplex printing. It is not a dodgy GDI Win printer. It seems cheap to me considering these features. Doing a quick search, I find these brand new at around $630 Australian and 450 Euros at French stores. Shane J Pearson
