Hello, I recently changef workstations and had the pleasure (and pain) of setting up all my stuff again. This also incldues my HP Photosmart 8250 printer, connected via usb. The printer have been working (connected to my old workstation) since the days of the initial port of HPLIP to FreeBSD. So on my new workstation I just installed cups and hplip, and preceeded to set up the printer. No go. hp-probe reported the serial number of the printer as zero, and that I *knew* was wrong: Device URI Model --------------------------------------- ------------------------- hp:/usb/Photosmart_8200_series?serial=0 HP Photosmart 8200 series Then I found this thread[1], and this patch[2]. When I checked the port after 'make patch', the patch was laready in the musb.c file, so I took my chancesd and reversed (-R) the patch. After that I found out that hp-probe reported the printer correctly: Device URI Model ---------------------------------------------------- ------------------------- hp:/usb/Photosmart_8200_series?serial=MY61B3X1NC04KJ HP Photosmart 8200 series hp-setup still fails to setup the printer, ending with this error message: Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed hp-toolbox reports the same error message. I set up my printer via the cups web interface, and it now prints and works. My new workstation runs FreeBSD 7.0-stable: tingo@kg-work2$ uname -a FreeBSD kg-work2.kg4.no 7.0-STABLE FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE #1: Mon Sep 22 23:02:46 CEST 2008 root@kg-work2.kg4.no:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SX270 i386 I will not be able to follow up on this for the next two weeks.
