Remote Printing to HP 1000
Our system is an HP RP5470 11.11. We have had remote printing working for over 6 years. We use NetManage ViewNow software on our Windows client as the LPD. We had no problems with remote printing for any HP printer except for the HP LAserJet 1000. Nothing prints. I sent all the files in the /opt/hpnpl/testfiles directory per HP Support and nothing prints.

On my Windows XP PC, I checked "Keep Printed Documents" in the "Advanced" tab of the properties of the printer and when I send a print job from Unix, I see the entry in the printer queue with a status of "printing" and then after a few seconds, the status changes to "printed" and nothing actual prints. If I disconnect the cable from the printer and send a print job, I get a message the printer cannot be found on my PC (cable problem). This tells me it is sending the printout to the proper printer. I went to hp.com and downloaded the latest drivers for the HP LaserJet 1000 and the same problem.

The printer cable attached is an HP cable #Q1342-60001, part no APFM-0001, log no 03032512. This is a special 25-pin male to USB cable. Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks

Bob

enable(1)                                                          User Commands                                                         enable(1)

NAME

       enable, disable - enable/disable LP printers

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/bin/enable printer...

       /usr/bin/disable [-c | -W]  [ -r [reason]] printer...

DESCRIPTION

       The  enable  command  activates  printers,  enabling  them to print requests submitted by the lp command. enable must be run on the printer
       server.

       The disable command deactivates printers, disabling them from printing requests submitted by the lp command. By default, any requests  that
       are  currently  printing  on printer will be reprinted in their entirety either on printer or another member of the same class of printers.
       The disable command must be run on the print server.

       Use lpstat -p to check the status of printers.

       enable and disable only effect queueing on the print server's spooling system. Executing these commands from a client system will  have  no
       effect on the server.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported for use with disable:

       -c              Cancels  any requests that are currently printing on printer. This option cannot be used with the -W option. If the printer
                       is remote, the -c option will be silently ignored.

       -W              Waits until the request currently being printed is finished before disabling printer. This option cannot be used  with  the
                       -c option. If the printer is remote, the -W option will be silently ignored.

       -r [reason]     Assigns  a  reason  for  the  disabling  of  the  printer(s). This reason applies to all printers specified. This reason is
                       reported by lpstat -p. Enclose reason in quotes if it contains blanks. The default  reason  is  "unknown  reason"  for  the
                       existing printer, and "new printer" for a printer added to the system but not yet enabled.

OPERANDS

       The following operand is supported for both enable and disable:

       printer         The  name of the printer to be enabled or disabled. Specify printer using atomic name. See printers.conf(4) for information
                       regarding the naming conventions for atomic names.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0               Successful completion.

       non-zero        An error occurred.

FILES

       /var/spool/lp/*         LP print queue.
