Major Revision to HPIJS Install Intructions
Authored by: jason.flores on Sep 26, '02 09:32:19PM
Due to an error on my part back when I started this project there were a lot of changes made that were unneeded. If you have tried this package with or without success I strongly urge you to use the new instructions. Current release is Version 1.2 Jason Flores jason.flores@attbi.com http://home.attbi.com/~jason.flores

Major Revision to HPIJS Install Intructions
Authored by: WillyT on Sep 30, '02 10:25:42AM

I followed everything right up to Step 5. In print center I see AppleTalk,Directory Services,IP Printing,USB then EPSON AppleTalk,EPSON FireWire,EPSON USB,HP AiO Fax,HP AiO Print, and Lexmark Inkjet Networking.

Which of these if any is now supposed to work my HP G85 using this hint.

Setup using V1.1.1 then V1.1.2.

I guess no printing is better than paperjams and garbage text.

easy .DMG HPIJS installation
Authored by: rkchang on Sep 30, '02 09:07:43PM

I noticed that http://www.linuxprinting.org/tylerb/ has an easily installable dmg package of the HPIJS software. I have to admit that I haven't gotten a chance to try the nitty-gritty installation instructions that Jason Flores was good enough to provide, so I'm not sure if there's a noticeable performance difference. But if you want a relatively easy installation package that seems to work reasonably well, here's a good starting point.

If anyone was curious, I'm using the following equipment:
ibook G3 700mhz (w/ airport card)
HP DeskJet 932c
Siemens SpeedStream wireless dsl/cable router w/ built-in print server

an interesting postscript...my windows machine is the only one on the network that can't seem to see the print server, despite M$'s touted hardware compatibility
