Common Linux problems

Suggested solutions

 

 

The machine does

• Check if the printer driver is installed in your

not print.

system. Open Unified Driver Configurator and

 

switch to the Printers tab in Printers

 

configuration window to look at the list of

 

available machines. Make sure that your

 

machine is displayed on the list. If not, open

 

Add new printer wizard to set up your

 

device.

 

• Check if the machine is started. Open

 

Printers configuration and select your

 

machine on the printers list. Look at the

 

description in the Selected printer pane. If its

 

status contains Stopped string, press the

 

Start button. After that normal operation of

 

the machine should be restored. The

 

“stopped” status might be activated when

 

some problems in printing occurred. For

 

instance, this could be an attempt to print a

 

document when the port is claimed by a

 

scanning application.

 

• Ensure the port is not busy. Since functional

 

components of machine (printer and scanner)

 

share the same I/O interface (port), the

 

situation of simultaneous access of different

 

user applications to the same port is possible.

 

To avoid possible conflicts, only one of them

 

at a time is allowed to gain control over the

 

device. The other user will encounter “device

 

busy” response. You should open ports

 

configuration and select the port assigned to

 

your machine. In the Selected port pane you

 

can see if the port is occupied by some other

 

application. If this is the case, you should

 

either wait for completion of the current job or

 

press the Release port button, if you are sure

 

that the present application is not functioning

 

properly.

 

• Check if your application has special print

 

option such as “-oraw”. If “-oraw” is specified

 

in the command line parameter, then remove

 

it to print properly. For Gimp front-end, select

 

“print” -> “Setup printer” and edit command

 

line parameter in the command item.

 

• The CUPS (Common Unix Printing System)

 

version distributed with SuSE Linux 9.2

 

(cups-1.1.21) has a problem with ipp (Internet

 

Printing Protocol) printing.Use the socket

 

printing instead of ipp or install a later version

 

of CUPS (cups-1.1.22 or higher).
