cannot print text document(.txt file) in fedora 12 using canon printer LBP6018B
Hi ,
i have installed canon LBP6018B printer in my fedora 12 machine & iam able to print test print, doc file,pdf files. But the text document is not printing ie., if i try to print any text document(.txt file) there is no output from printer. Please give a solution thanks in advance |
Hi Mithesh, Welcome to LQ. Have you tried printing .txt files from more than one program? Is this print issue isolated to one piece of software or are you having issues printing .txt files regardless of the software? Is the printer set up through cups?
Good luck. ;-) |
PLEASE!!! upgrade ASAP!!!!
Fedora 12 is 8 and soon to be 9 versions OUT OF DATE Fedora 12 has been UNSUPPORTED since it went END OF LIFE on 2010-12-02 12 is missing the last 3.5 YEARS of security updates !!! DO NOT USE FEDORA 12 !!!! Please install the current Fedora 20 Fedora 21 will be released this summer as to printing Did you set up and configure the printer ? use the CUPS web interface http://localhost:631 the above link is for YOUR computer "localhost" |
Hi all,
Thanks for your reply I have setup the printer through cups.I have tried to print through GEDIT text file also the normal text files, its not printing. |
seeing as that printer is NEWER than the dead and unsupported fedora 12
there is NO support for it in 12 install fedora 20 |
It may depend on the printer. If the printer accepts postscript/PDF it should print - but the text file would have to be converted to postscript/PDF first. For a postscript printer I have used enscript.
