https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D227051 Bug ID: 227051 Summary: print/hplip: hp-setup indicates failure but generates ppd file Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: woodsb02@freebsd.org Reporter: freebsd@dreamchaser.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(woodsb02@freebsd.org) Assignee: woodsb02@freebsd.org hplip installs hp-setup to generate ppd files. If one installs hplip without the FAX option, and then attempts to generate a ppd file for an HP Officejet Pro 8500 a909g, the program finishes with an error message indicating failure. However, it= has written the appropriate file to /usr/local/share/ppd. When I did this, cups still did not work. I was left wondering if the ppd = file generated was in error somehow, or whether some other activity needed to be done. The cups log shows that it properly reloaded the changed ppd file, but then claimed it could not open the file: D [28/Mar/2018:11:23:09 -0600] [Client 1] Processing GET /printers/HP_Officejet_Pro_8500_A909g ...

I finally deleted the cups queue (via the cups web interface), rebuilt the hplip pack= age with the FAX and SCAN options enabled, and re-ran hp-setup to regenerate the queue. At this point it worked. However, the ppd file generated was the same as the previous one. So it appears something else didn't get done when hp-setup indicated it had an er= ror generating the ppd file because of no fax capabilities. As a side-note, hp-setup did not give me the option of using a different protocol. The generated queue was: hp:/net/Officejet_Pro_8500_A909g?ip=3Daaa.bbb.ccc.ddd I had to use the cups web interface to change it to what I wanted, which was socket://aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd:9100 --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
