Install cups and cups-pdf : pkg install cups cups-pdf Build hplip from ports : cd /usr/ports/print/hplip #if you don't have /usr/ports, run : portsnap fetch extract make config # choose to build with qt4, not qt5 #hplip-qt5 currently omits the sip module - big problem make install clean You should be able to run Epson under cups and HP via hplip. The CUPS web interface is : http://localhost:631/admin Before you try accessing CUPS interface, put this in /etc/rc.conf and reboot : cupsd_enable=YES To set up HP printer, run hp-setup (as normal user) If your printer is visible to root and not visible to the normal user, you likely have a permissions problem. Run usbconfig as root to find out the ugen ID of the HP printer (I presume this is a USB printer). Let's say it is ugen2.3 Put the following in /etc/devfs.conf : perm usb/2.3.0 0664 Then run : /etc/rc.d/devfs restart Regards Manish Jain
