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?
http://www.bsdforums.org/forums/showthread.php?t=42391
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.

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.
I just did a /usr/local/etc/rc.d/cupsd restart and then printed
something from my laptop. Same error.

What are the permissions/ownership on /dev/ulpt0?
jmc
I do not remember if I created the user + group cups & hplip or if
the system automatically did so for me. In any event, there are the
following entries:
The hplip port automatically creates the user. If you are using
hplip
then you shouldn't have ulpt in your kernel or be loading it as a
module. eg. You printer MUST attach as a ugen device. Once it is
attaching as a ugen device you should run hp-setup to correctly
configure the printer via the HP utilities.
If there is any confusion I'd suggest updating to 1.6.6a from the
following PR and following all the instructions in the pkg-message
from the PR as it explains everything you need to do to get hpluip up
and running correctly.

I was finally able to get it to attach as a ugen device.
dell# dmesg | grep ugen
ugen0: Hewlett-Packard hp LaserJet 1160 series, rev 1.10/1.00, addr 2
So, I entered the CUPS web administration and it knew about the
printer and had a button to add that specific one, so I did. I
chose the appropriate driver, and then it was installed. So, I
printed a test page and it printed appropriately. So, I went to my
laptop and printed something simple. It did not work. At this
point, I took your advice above and ran hp-setup (as root of
course). Below is what happened with that.

It sits there and does nothing. Any ideas? In the CUPS web
interface, the job itself just says, "stopped at novalue". Thank
you so much for your help; it has meant a lot to me. I have my /var/
log/messages file and /var/log/cups/error_log files compressed and
attached to this email.
Thank you again.

Hello all,
My posts have now been made @ freebsd.org, cups.org, and
hplip.sf.net. I am not sure which of those systems contains the
problem. In any event, in my quest to get my network print server
operational, I have tried several things.
1) I realized that my cupsd.conf file has not been changed since I
first had my network print server working (about one year ago). So, I
perused it and compared cupsd.conf to cupsd.conf.default and there
were some large differences. So, I decided to start fresh and
cp cupsd.conf.defaults cupsd.conf
and edit it via the web interface. In here, I checked the "Share
published printers connected to this system" and "Save debugging
information for troubleshooting" options. After this, I was able to
see the printer on my laptops. This takes me to item 2).
2) In trying to print from my laptops, I kept getting some generic
errors. So, I did some Googling and found the fix, which was to add
the ip address and hostname of the print server to my /etc/hosts file
on my Mac OS X boxen. I did this and it fixed this printing issue and
I ended up with the same "stopped at novalue" endgame. This takes me
to 3).
3) To ensure that the CUPS on my Mac laptops was not to blame, I
installed the latest (1.2.2) CUPS on it and tried printing and had
the same errors.
I am really running out of ideas in trying to fix this. Do any of you
know anybody who has a similar setup working so I can compare conf
files and system setup with them? I am willing to try anything
suggested on my server. What GNU/Linux distributions (and CUPS
versions) has hplip been tested against? I have my CUPS config files
attached to this message. At this point, I think we should assume
that every step I have done has been incorrect (or I missed one). If
I were to install FreeBSD from scratch, then install CUPS and hplip,
what steps do I have to take (step by step) to create my network
print server? Thank you so much for your assistance.
