Actually, it is HP DeskJet 1112, but it always identifies itself as HP DJ 1110. > However, hplip support seems to be okay for this model: > > http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/models/deskjet/deskjet_1110_series.html This USB printer works fantastically with primary and secondary boxes (both FreeBSD 10.3/11). I have never had a problem with this printer printing with FreeBSD::hplip. >> To the best of my knowledge, the printer does not show up in the output >> of usbconfig. I checked the output of usbconfig by doing this : I ran usbconfig twice, first time with the printer on; and then a second time with the printer switched off. a) The first run does not produce identification for any HP/Hewlett Packard device b) Both runs produce exactly the same output. > So the printer actually gets recognized, and CUPS can configure > it? It so, what's the point of using hp-setup additionally? Now it gets interesting. On neither my primary box nor my secondary box have I succeeded in printing to this printer with CUPS. I have always had to delete the CUPS queue and print with hplip. On this tertiary box, it turns out that printing with CUPS is cool : - ) This is the first time I am seeing CUPS working so well and easily on any of my boxes. So the hplip issue becomes of less import. Thanks for your help. Regards Manish Jain
