[SOLVED] printer help please SOS HELP !!!!

Recently, I wanted to print something, so I followed the instructions on installing a printer on arch wiki about cups. I followed every piece of instruction, but none did the trick. I even tried installing my printer from hp-toolbox, but it gave me and error saying printer queque failed. I have an HP photosmart c4400. It works for every other OS. Please help.

Re: [SOLVED] printer help please SOS HELP !!!!

Is this really so big of an "SOS HELP!!!!" that you need to bump it after 7 minutes? Good policy is to bump after 2 days, if you really can't find anything. Try to provide more information in posts or do more digging and state what you've tried  since the last post. http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/For … te#Bumping

Where does it say "printer queque failed"? Did you really try everything on the wiki page about CUPS? My printer works fine but I don't have the same one as you. Does the wiki page say anything about blacklisting/rmmod-ing modules? I've seen that mentioned in other threads, but I don't know which module. Please wait for somebody that knows, I'm sure somebody can help.

Did any of that help? I found the part I was talking about on the wiki, Blacklisting usblp It's only a guess that it is USB, though. That doesn't mention it, but for it to take effect immediately you will need to also use "rmmod usblp" I think. If that doesn't work, try restarting.
