This has similaries to bug #55547. Hm, this is because for some reason 'prototype' is empty for that driver. There are several other drivers with empty prototypes too. Investigating. Hmm, apparently an empty prototype field means that it isn't supported. Does the 'omni' driver for that printer work? It worked upto 7.1 with that driver. Printconf also gives an stp driver option, no omni driver though. The stp driver also doesn't work -sModel misses. Is the printer database editable by users? It isn't editable, no (not easily). But you should have an 'omni' driver if you've installed all the applicable updates to date. Please make sure you have applied the updates for Red Hat Linux 7.2. You should end up with: foomatic-1.1-0.20011018.7.i386.rpm Omni-0.5.0-4.i386.rpm Omni-foomatic-0.5.0-4.i386.rpm printconf-0.3.52-1.i386.rpm ghostscript-6.51-16.i386.rpm Let me know if there is an omni driver after doing that, and if that provides better results. [jkf@kruithof html]$ rpm -q foomatic Omni Omni-foomatic printconf ghostscript foomatic-1.1-0.20011018.7 Omni-0.5.0-4 Omni-foomatic-0.5.0-4 printconf-0.3.52-1 ghostscript-6.51-16 No Omni shows up for canon bjc6200 I "Solved" the problem the following way: [root@kruithof root]# rpm -e foomatic Omni-foomatic printconf printconf-gui warning: /etc/alchemist/namespace/printconf/local.adl saved as /etc/alchemist/namespace/printconf/local.adl.rpmsave [root@kruithof root]# rpm -i /home/jkf/printconf- printconf-0.2.15-2.i386.rpm printconf-gui-0.2.15-2.i386.rpm [root@kruithof root]# rpm -i /home/jkf/printconf-* (I removed foomatic and the new printconf and installed the printconf from rh 7.1 (latest patchlevel)) Do the packages at <ftp://people.redhat.com/twaugh/errata-candidate/> help? Yes, the uniprinter at least works again in 360x360 dpi modes. STP driver does not work.

Okay. Well, the gimp-print driver (formerly named 'stp') seems to work in rawhide now at least, so I'll mark this as fixed. The other problem will be fixed when the errata goes out. |
