Thank you for this clarification.

Does anyone out there have network printing working with hpijs/hplip
and
CUPS 1.2.0?
Yes. You need to follow the instructions at
file:///usr/local/share/doc/hplip-0.9.11/install/step4/cups/net.html
I do not think I explained my situation very well. This printer (hp
LaserJet 1160Le) is connected directly to my FreeBSD server via USB.
If I print something logged on the server (via lp for instance), it
prints. I wish to print to this printer from all of the computers on
my LAN. When I try to print something from one of these computers,
that is when it bombs and displays the foomatic-rip error message
(foomatic-rip failed).
The directions on that sheet appear to be if I wanted to print to this
network printer that wasn't directly connected to the FreeBSD server.
Am I mistaken about this? Also, there is no button on the printer that
will print such a page, so I would have to figure out how to find this
IP address by other means. I cannot see how to find it in the CUPS web
interface. I assume CUPS issues it an IP address.
The error_log that I have posted on previous threads is attached to
this email (the successful print jobs were done locally while the
error occurred when I printed to the printer from my MacBook Pro).
Does anyone have any suggestions? I should note that prior to the CUPS
upgrade to 1.2.0 (and the recent gnutls update), my setup was working
(I was able to print from the server itself as well as all of the rest
of the computers on my LAN). I have rebuilt all packages several times
(except for the OS).
On my MacBook Pro, when I go to the CUPS web interface, I see the
following for the printer:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] HP LaserJet 1160 Foomatic/hpijs
(recommended)
Description: hp LaserJet 1160Le
Location: Den
Printer State: idle, accepting jobs.
192.168.0.3 is the IP address of my FreeBSD server on my LAN. It looks
as if Mac OS X 10.4.7 runs CUPS 1.1.23, but I could be mistaken. It
has found the printer through Bonjour (zeroconf I believe is another
name for it), so I didn't have to do any configuring. Could there be
an incompatibility within these versions of CUPS? I have found the
following page which lists several issues and talks about how CUPS
1.2.0 is broken in several places. Could one of these be the issue?

On a sidenote, I was having difficulties installing hpijs when hplip
was
already installed
I'm working on that.
Thank you for your assistance on this.
Doug

You need to restart CUPS when the printer "attaches" via USB or else
CUPS won't know about the USB port and you'll get this error every time.
