"gutsy (up-to-date as of 24h ago)" (so not older than Oct 4 2007) should have system-config-printer and haç-cups-utils installed by default. And with these two the steps I have shown should work.
Only exception is Kubuntu Gutsy. The KDE edition uses the KDE Printing Manager by default and does not create print queues by itself. If you do not use Kubuntu, do sudo apt-get install hal-cups-utils system-config-printer or better the correct one of sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop sudo apt-get install edubuntu-desktop to assure that all default packages are installed. Make sure you got the latest fixes with sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Now on a non-Kubuntu system you should get your printer automatically set up if you turn it off and on again. On Kubuntu start the KDE Printing Manager and set up the print queue with it. Important is that you use the HPLIP device (can be in a section like "Other" or "Misc"). -- (/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstoraster) crashed on signal 9! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/149459 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
