'cups 19-13' isn't a version number, but presumably you mean cups-1.1.19-13 -- but this package does indeed contain the lpstat etc utilities. There is a known bug (logged in bugzilla) with upgrades not switching over properly from LPRng, which it sounds like you might have run into. Use 'redhat-switch-printer' to set the print spooler to CUPS. You don't say whether this media message prevents you from printing -- it shouldn't, and I believe it to be something that can be ignored. Could you confirm that this is the case, and that this bug report is that the message is bogus? Indeed you are correct about the cups version. I saw the upgrade bug and checked rpm -q LPRng that LPRng was not on there. I agree that I could have run into this however lpstat and all the other utilities now work. I have also recompiled all the packages I mention instead of using binaries and the ppd filter I have has come from the latest gimp-print targz file. When installing cups informed me in the error log about where it was looking for it and I put it there This sentence in the original report I cannot get my printer to print despite lpstat -t showing (increasing) data tranfer was the clue to the problem. I cannot confirm that this message is related however its the only clue I have. The printer will print from a media card so the message is for sure wrong. See: http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Olympus-P-400 The stable branch of the gimp-print driver does not seem to support this model yet, but development for its support is under way. "the ppd filter I have has come from the latest gimp-print targz file." i.e > 4.3.20 "The printer should work with the version 4.3.20 or newer of the development line." I basically extracted the olypus-p400.ppd file from the ./configure part of the gimp print install. This is the driver, and its a standard PPD file olympus-p400 it should therefore be processed in the same way IMHO as any other PPD file. the usb backend doesnt care about it so IMHO it should work. If I'm wrong Is there an rpm (src or bin) I could use ?. Not enough to have the PPD -- you need the actual driver code as well! Thanks Tim, From what I read I thought all I needed was the ppd esp since it got to the printer spooler. I guess I'm going to have to hack the system. Pete. |
