Network printer - HPJetDirect - DEBIAN 3.1r2
Hi, i'm trying to to print to my network printer. I have a test-station with DEBIAN 3.1r2 (O/S) and a printer that owns an ethernet card with an IP address assigned..

I'm sure the eth is up.. because, i run the PING command to test my IP address... and is OK - my wrkstation found the IP on the network.

I install the CUPS packages and I can acces to my
http://localhost:631 (locally) <-- where I ADD the printers ...
BUT when I try to send a test page to my printer, all of my test pages persist with a CANCELLED Status.

I Try different configuration methods - socked, ipp and I
have no clue why this occurs.Smilie

thanks anticipated for any response..


SOLUTION for this community:
Reinstall de cupsys cupsys-client cupssys-bsd PACKAGES <-- and that's all..
the test pages was sent and printed sucessfully. Smilie

papstatus

PAPSTATUS(8)							   Netatalk 2.2 						      PAPSTATUS(8)

NAME

       papstatus - get the status of an AppleTalk-connected printer

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/papstatus [-d] [-p printer] [retrytime]

DESCRIPTION

       papstatus is used to obtain the current status message from an AppleTalk connected printer. It uses the Printer Access Protocol (PAP) to
       obtain the status information.

       If no printer is specified on the command line, papstatus looks for a file called .paprc in the current directory and reads it to obtain
       the name of a printer. The .paprc file should contain a single line of the form object:type@zone where each of object, :type, and @zone are
       optional.  type and zone must be proceeded by `:' and `@' respectively. Blank lines and lines the begin with a `#' are ignored.	type and
       zone default to LaserWriter and the zone of the local host, respectively.

OPTIONS

       -d
	   Turns on a debugging mode that prints some extra information to standard error.

       -p printer
	   Get status from printer (do not consult any .paprc files to find a printer name). The syntax for printer is the same as discussed above
	   for the .paprc file.

       retrytime
	   Normally, papstatus only gets the status from the printer once. If retrytime is specified, the status is obtained repeatedly, with a
	   sleep of retrytime seconds between inquiring the printer.

FILES

       .paprc
	   file that contains printer name

SEE ALSO

       nbp(1), pap(1)
