I had a problem with my Pi following a power failure and decided to rebuild my system using Jessie rather than Wheezy.
I had it working as a Cups print server for an HP Business Inkjet 1200n with Wheezy. Installed a long time ago so not sure how I got it working.
Under Jessie cups installation when asked for the model, HP Business Inkjet 1200 does not show up. Tried entering Model 2220 which allows me to print a test page from cups, but not from any of the machines I am trying to serve
ie. ipp://pi-two.local:631/printers/HP_Business_Inkjet_1200

You are likely missing the HPLIP package which when installed should offer more drivers in CUPS set up:KeithSloan wrote:I had a problem with my Pi following a power failure and decided to rebuild my system using Jessie rather than Wheezy.

That got me further, but when I do a test print from ubuntu the job gets status held for authentication. If I right click and authenticate it does not work.Rive wrote:for HP, try:Code: Select all

But any way I think I have to change some option in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
In the bit that follows
# All printer operations require a printer operator to authenticate...
