[Bug 29050] Re: cupsys does not automatically detect parallel printer
Hi, I am using Feisty, and I set BIOS to Standart Bi-directional from ETC. Then did try some changes in modules file, such as ignoring lp and adding ppdev, it seems does have any effect. Provided http://www.linux-foundation.org/~till/tmp/ubuntu/feisty/cupsys/ does not have the content. Finally I checked the cupsys file and it does have the updated form as suggested above.

In Gutsy, perhaps already in Feisty this has falklen back to the original, broken state. I think the problem is that if we fix it at Ubuntu the fix survives only until the next sync with Debian.

The problem here was that CUPS checked whether the lp module was loaded, and if not, it loaded both lp and ppdev. With lp already loaded at CUPS startup (the usual case), CUPS did not load any module, so ppdev was not loaded again. The usual case is that the lp module is loaded at boot because it is present in /etc/modules.

'sudo cat ~/.bashrc /dev/lp0' does not work the way you intend it to. You need to do echo hello | sudo tee /dev/lp0 -- cupsys does not automatically detect parallel printer https://launchpad.net/bugs/29050 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ echo hello | sudo tee /dev/lp0 Password: hello [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ As you can see, that line produced only the echo.

[Bug 29050] Re: cupsys does not automatically detect parallel printer
gcordoba, can you check whether the parallel port setting in the BIOS of your computer supports bi-directional communication? Make also sure not having any other device (like a parallel scanner) on the same parallel port. Do also not use any Canon or Epson entries for your parallel port. Can you set up your printer manually (choose parallel port, then select model manually) and then print on it? -- cupsys does not automatically detect parallel printer https://launchpad.net/bugs/29050 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 29050] Re: cupsys does not automatically detect parallel printer
Yes, it is Standart Bi-directional. No other physical devices attached to the port I do not know about any Canon or Epson entries It do not print manually.

[Bug 29050] Re: cupsys does not automatically detect parallel printer
Hi, I am trying to fix the non-detection problem for a HP LaserJet 5L (parallel port). I am using Ubuntu6.06. I just tried with most of the tips without success. However, it seems to me that the problem is that the parallel port are used by someone/something. I am attaching al the trials done. Any idea?
