I have one Laserjet HP 1000. I tried to configure it using RedHat 9, Fedora Core
1,2 & 3 . It is not working. It is as a USB Printer.

hi there
can linux detect that??
or u having problem after that

regards

Hi there, i have exactly the same problem. The queue recieves the test pages i try to print and no error is output local machine. I fairly new to Linux but i think it's something to do with USB not working as i'm also trying to connect my BT ADSL modem via USB with no joy.

I keeo finding references to the HOTPLUG which should automatically pick up USB devices???? not for me !

check ur log for any messages

tail /var/log/messages

will show u last log of 10 lines

regards

Linux Printing is a good place to look for info on Linux printer issues. I had a similar problem with OfficeJet G55 (a usb printer). Had to install the hpoj driver. Not sure if this is relevant to your model, check HPOJ
