I'm having trouble printing to Epson sylus photo 820 on USB
The printer is seen as a device by Linux.
I can que up a print job with lp:
# lp temp
request id is stylus-photo-820-1-8 (1 file(s))
lpstat see the job is queued:
# lpstat
stylus-photo-820-1-7 root 7168 Fri 07 Jan 2005 11:53:43 PM EST
lpstat -p shows a HAL error:
lpstat -p
printer stylus-photo-820-1 disabled since Jan 01 00:00 -
Unable to open HAL device
"hal:///org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_usb_device_4b8_5_100_-1_W02L20112141002550_0"
OK obviously my hal ain't working! ;-)
Please point me to where I can learn:
What's a HAl?
Where can I learn about it and this error?
Anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong or what I need
to do to resolve this.
I have a 256M removable SanDisk Cruzer Mini plugged into
a USB port and it is showing up just fine so I'm guessing
FC3 is seeing my USB devices but I suspect I'm missing
something for my printer configuration.
Any ideas or direction would be appreciated.
Joe
