[arch-general] cups 1.6.1 doesn't detect usb printer
Hi, I'm stuck with resolving my printer issue. Maybe someone here can help me out. Long story: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=148474 Short version: I reinstalled cups, removed all leftover files in /etc, /usr which wasn't owned any package. Samsung unified driver got replaced with splix-svn 307. Now cups doesn't see my usb printer. On a laptop with clean cups install it works. What interesting that the printer is recognized, lsusb, dmesg shows it. And usb backend called manually detects it, too: |# /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb DEBUG: list_devices DEBUG: libusb_get_device_list=10 DEBUG2: Printer found with device ID: MFG:Samsung;CMD:PCL5E,SPL,FWV,EXT;MDL:SCX-3200 Series;CLS:PRINTER;MODE:SCN;STATUS:BUSY; Device URI: usb://Samsung/SCX-3200%20Series?serial=Z509BFEB902638M&interface=1 direct usb://Samsung/SCX-3200%20Series?serial=Z509BFEB902638M&interface=1 "Samsung SCX-3200 Series" "Samsung SCX-3200 Series" "MFG:Samsung;CMD:PCL5E,SPL,FWV,EXT;MDL:SCX-3200 Series;CLS:PRINTER;MODE:SCN;STATUS:BUSY;" "" root ~ # lpinfo -vl network http network lpd network socket network smb network https network ipp network ipps| Does someone have any clue? Of course I played with usblp module (removed, loaded), no avail. Thanks, Zsolt

The troubles CUPS updates always cause have bugged me so much I had it blacklisted. What exactly have you tried to install the printer? system-config-printer? Web interface? Samsung installers? -- Serge Hooge () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments

I abandoned samsung unified driver and switched to splix. I tried to add the printer via web and command line interface .

Neither recognize the printer? Perhaps the permissions on the device node are wrong? -- Serge Hooge () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments

Funny. Couldn't you just have your message sent yesterday? :) I'd have more hair on my head. Before I read your reply I did 2 things. I left libstdc++5 the dependency of samsung-unified-driver package on my system and copied the 99_smfpautoconf.rules file from the samsung driver to my udev rules folder: # This file is a part of package samsung-unified-driver # Rules to allow low level USB device access for smfpautoconf SUBSYSTEM!="usb|usb_device", GOTO="label_end" ACTION!="add", GOTO="label_end" ATTRS{idVendor}=="0419", MODE="0666" ATTRS{idVendor}=="04e8", MODE="0666" ATTRS{idVendor}=="0924", MODE="0666" ATTRS{idVendor}=="413c", MODE="0666" LABEL="label_end" And now I can print again! Yay!
