Printing Problem thru IPP - HPLIP
 

Hi,

I have following setup on my one of the customer where we had suplly thin client.

Customer have their old system with SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10.2 with HP LaserJet P1008. They had configure this printer thru foo2xqx & HPLIP 2.8.10.

Our Thin Client which we had supplied with SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11.1 & HPLIP 3.10.2.

I am able to install HP printer on my thinclient but thru IPP but, when we fire any print command I am getting "Stopped: /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip-hplip failed" error. If I can connect printer on thinclient I am able to print. But, thru IPP share I am not able to print.

Also, customer have their old thinclient also on which they share this printer so, I am not able to detach this printer from that system.

Pls. help to resolve this problem.

Thanks,
Daxesh

Hi
I am not an expert in SLED but you have to allow sharing on the thin client your customer already has (and where the printer is connected to).
Google for "cups printer sharing" which will lead to:

I'm sure there's a more "official" way to get the printer installed properly, but using HP's installer resulted in the same "foomatic-rip-hplip" filter error you mentioned. I got mine to work this way:
