Hi all,
Back in June, I bought a Canon LBP2900 laser printer, and tried to get it
working under Fedora. After a long break, I am back again where I left off.
I reinstalled the OS yesterday (F8, for complicted reasons) and I am again
trying to get this printer working.
As I mentioned in my original post, I downloaded the CAPT driver from Canon
Europe. Here are the RPMs I have installed:
2007-12-03 08:49 cndrvcups-capt-1.60-1.i386.rpm
2007-12-03 08:49 cndrvcups-common-1.60-1.i386.rpm
(the later v1.7 package referred to earlier by another lister is no longer
available)
Once installed, CAPS automatically recognizes the printer and selects
what appears to be the correct driver: Canon LBP2900 CAPT ver.1.5
Likewise, the printer shows up properly in dmesg:
usb 1-7: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 10
usb 1-7: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
usblp1: USB Bidirectional printer dev 10 if 0 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x04A9 pid
0x2676
usb 1-7: New USB device found, idVendor=04a9, idProduct=2676
usb 1-7: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
usb 1-7: Product: Canon CAPT USB Device
usb 1-7: Manufacturer: Canon
usb 1-7: SerialNumber: 0000A380HGkZ
but if I try a test page, nothing happens. The only indication that
something is wrong is this error message repeatedly displayed in dmesg:
usblp1: error -32 reading printer status
Anyone have any ideas for me?
Thanks.
