 |
|
Hello!
I try to install a HP LaserJet 2100 which is connected to a LAN-router
with print server. CUPS and Foomatic are installed, I got the .ppd from
linuxprinting.org and I can connect to the print server via telnet.
So far everything looks quite well, but if I try to print a test page
with CUPS I get the message
"Attempting to connect to host 192.168.1.1 for printer lp1"
and nothing else happens.
CUPS used to work fine before I updated world a couple of months before.
I tried up- and downgrading CUPS but nothing helped.
The same CUPS settings work fine if I boot from a Knoppipx-CD.
Any ideas?

How did you set up the printer? With lpadmin or the web interface?

I used the webinterface.
And I checked the resulting config files. The files looked good to
me but I'm definetly not an expert. |

maybe sombody else can see what's wrong with them.

If I print a test page from the CUPS webinterface I get the following log in
/var/log/cups/error_log

I do not even know where to look for the problem.
I can only guess it's somewhere in the communication between my local CUPS and the print server
on the router. But I have no idea what to do now...
