[SOLVED] cups and laserjet 1018

Hi all,

I've been trying to use cups to set up a Laserjet 1018 with no success. The problem I'm having is that, even though according to the CUPS web interface my job is completed, my printer doesn't print anything. That's what I tried so far (based on the archlinux entry on CUPS and forums):

- I installed the drivers hplip and foo2zjs.
- cups is in my daemons array.
- I tried to stop and start usblp module.
- the device node permissions are correct.

That's the output of my /var/log/cups/error_log (I'm using "LogLevel debug" in my cupsd.conf):

Re: [SOLVED] cups and laserjet 1018

I had trouble with another LaserJet (the 1005), until I realised that as well as installing hplip, I needed to run 'hplip -i' (as root) to get it to download the necessary firmware.

For some reason, I don't have a "hplip" command (I searched for this file in every folder).

Re: [SOLVED] cups and laserjet 1018

For some reason (that I don't quite understand) my laserjet is working now. The only thing I did was to just set up my printer again using the CUPS web interface.

It's a moot point now, but I meant hp-setup!
