只用过HP的打印机,用过两个,分别是:HP_p2055dn, 和 HP_LaserJet_Professional_M1216nfh 别的不知道。以下内容仅试用于HP打印机。
第一:装HP,打印机工具
pacman -S hplip
这个包,自带配置工具和打印机驱动。
其实,装这个就能用了,然后使用自带工具hp-toolbox,hp-setup之类的一设置。
不过在几年前使用第一台打印机2055的时候,我还不太懂,所以学习了一个开放的打印机接入服务cups(到底是干啥的,我也并不太知道),cups支持所有主流的打印机。
所以我当时使用的cups来添加打印机。理论上你可以用cups来添加管理所有的打印机,但是非HP的,应该是需要另装驱动的,我不清楚。
第二:基于以上,安装cups
pacman -S cups
第三:启动cups服务:
>>> systemctl start org.cups.cupsd
第四:使用浏览器访问cups服务: http://localhost:631/
在页面里可以找到添加打印机的向导,然后跑到打印机旁边,找到品牌,型号标签,然后记下来。使用socket://172.168.10.98/ 添加打印机。并选择品牌,然后选择对应型号的驱动。最后完成向导。
然后,打印测试页。在job里查看是否成功。如果错了,80%是驱动选错了。重来该步骤,直到成功!
第五:理论上,在第四步骤里边,你就已经成功了。如果你来到了第五步,说明你没有成功。
如果你的打印机不是HP,请关闭该页,去google重新search。然后,最终你一定成功,欢迎回来留言,分享经验 :)
如果你的打印机是HP的,并且是m1216nfh,那么恭喜你和我的问题一样,请继续阅读。
我遇到的问题:添加成功,打印失败,说:filter failed

第六:直接使用hplip的工具安装,不使用cups
hp-setup -i 172.168.10.98
不需要指定驱动,自动识别,自动安装。
完成向导,打印测试页,好用!
总结:HP的打印机,就用HP的工具装,节约时间。: )
-------------------------------------------
后续:
因为并不知道为什么cups不好使,而小伙伴们都说重来没遇见过不好使的时候,所以我又尝试调查了一下,希望找到原因。
hp-setup之后,使用hp-check命令,可以查看到所以打印机的信息。成功添加的打印机使用了一个新生产的ppd,
/etc/cups/ppd/HP_LaserJet_Professional_M1216nfh_MFP.ppd
与原ppd比较如下:
152 (T7) ~/Src/tss/tss_sys >>> diff 1 2 3c3 < *%%%% Created by the CUPS PPD Compiler CUPS v2.1.3. --- > *%%%% Created by the CUPS PPD Compiler CUPS v2.2.1. 29c29 < *cupsVersion: 2.1 --- > *cupsVersion: 2.2 153 (T7) 1 ~/Src/tss/tss_sys >>>
所以,我一度以为是ppd里边这两行区别导致的问题,只要有了新ppd,就可以正常使用了(另外,这个新PPD是从哪来的?)
之后,我使用这个新ppd用cups重新加载了一次,未修复,现象与之前保持一致。
