Here's a quick write-up on my real-life experience with adding the HP LaserJet and Ricoh Aficio MP 3500 as printers in Ubuntu GNU/Linux.I chose to make a note of this simple task because I was tripped up by it at first. The problem? The default setting caused nothing but garbage at the printer.
Hi,
I'm trying to print to a Ricoh Aficio printer, my OS is Ubuntu 11.10 on a Sony laptop.
When I connect it it all seems ok, in the sense the printer appears on the printer list and is recognised as the correct model.
However when I send a test page the folllowing occurs.
Instead of printing a test page it prints the following text:
"CUPS PrintTestPage"
not sure why this is happen
Hello, I have installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on my PC.
But I could not run my Canon i-SENSYS LBP3250 laser printer on it.
I have disabled SElinux and also installed CAPT Printer Driver for Linux V2.20 but still my printer is not printing.
Whenever I submit a print job, in printer properties it shows 'processing-sending data to printer' but nothing happens!
Can anyone help me?
Hi everyone,
I didn't know where to post, sorry if I have mistaken.
I just bought a Samsung printer which was supposed to work on Linux distributions. It didn't and when I called the customers support they just told me that the printer was working on Linux but not on Ubuntu and that I should change.
So I won't buy Samsung's printers anymore. But now I don't know who can I trust.
I have a Canon i-sensys MF4410 laser printer. I am running a dual boot system with Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04. The printer works in Windows and Ubuntu sees it when I attempt to add a new printer but I cannot get it to work in Ubuntu.
Hi,
I have just installed an Epson WP4535-DWF Ethernet connected printer on 192.168.0.19 (Reserved ip).
It's working under Windows 7 and XP clients....
Now I want to access it from my Ubuntu 11.10
I came across this site
http://www.openprinting.org/printers
Which says this model of printer works very well under Ubuntu
(And there seems to be at least three different drivers for it !!!!!!!!!
Hi,
after an update to 11.2 (from 11.1), 64 bit, I don't get the printer to work. I reinstalled the driver and checked in cups: it says that the printer is available and waiting for a job. When I send something to the printer, nothing happens. The priont job will be stopped immediately.
Hello,
I installed Ubunto 9.1 but my Lexmark p4350 will not work with it. I checked the forums but nothing worked. I have been looking online at some HP Printers and was wondering if there is a way to see if it would be compatible with Ubunto before I purchase one.
I have several computers connected to a single network printer. I want to add a second profile for the network printer so that I can give it different printing properties (landscape vs portrait).
We are using Windows XP. The network printer has an address like:
\\SERVERCOMPUTER\Dell Laser Printer M! Dell Laser Printer M5200
How can I add a second printer profile or a network printer?
