[Comment 7 Thomas Raschbacher 2003-04-25 00:31:11 UTC]

had to remove the patches for it to compile here .. which gcc did u use before?

[Comment 8 Scott Price 2003-04-25 21:24:23 UTC]

It works well with my system (Athlon 1700+  LaserJet 3330mpf on JetDirect 170X) with the following two exceptions:

It needs to depend on:

net-analyzer/ucd-snmp

for JetDirect compatibility and it needs to add the driver 'hpoj' to /etc/sane.d/dll.conf to work properly.  A hpoj.conf file should also probably be added for completeness.

[Comment 9 Scott Price 2003-04-25 22:25:43 UTC]

Woops.  I just noticed that hpoj was added to dll.conf.  I just missed it the first few times I looked.

[Comment 10 Thomas Raschbacher 2003-04-26 05:05:21 UTC]

it does depend on ucd-snmp:
snmp?    ( >=net-analyzer/ucd-snmp-4.2.6 )
but only if u got snmp in your USE

hmm.. hpoj.conf .. can u supply one? i can't test it myself

[Comment 11 Scott Price 2003-04-26 08:10:42 UTC]

I feel like I am being an over eager kid and displaying my ignorance.  ;)  hpoj does not use hpoj.conf to store their device list. What we should do, though is put a note in to say something like:

"To setup the hpoj driver you must run '/etc/init.d/ptal-init setup'.  This will scan your system for HP OfficeJet printers and set them up for you."

The ebuild that I downloaded (above link) did not mention snmp at all.  Where is that info stored?

i was talking about the one in the portage tree (do emerge sync) it's in /usr/portage/net-print/hpoj ..completely different to the attached one ..

obsolete file

[Comment 14 Scott Price 2003-04-28 15:46:45 UTC]

Okay.  You snuck that one in on me.  ;)  I must have looked for one just before you posted that.  I installed it and it works well over the network.

Thanks.
