Printer Problem!!

5 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/printer-problem.12565/

Its wierd
The drivers Are installed properly, but when I try to print it gives no response! I have HP PSC 1210 printer!
In the icon that appears when printer is switched on its says "dot printer...on location 0"! Now Location 0 I think is some port!
I know the cable,printer is workin properly as It prints on linux perfectly!

I think the problem is "Location 0"!
Any help would be appreciated!

Remove the cables . rejoin them. Re-install the drives. Install the printer correctly(if on lpt port.)
N then try n see whether ur printer works or not.

Please tell us which port your Printer is attached to.By that I mean USB or LPT.

Also tell which Linux distro you are using.

I suppose that if the Printer is connected to the USB port then the problem might be that your Linux Distro does not have the reqired drivers for the USB Root Hub of your mobo.

Thanx for your concern guys-> Problem solved, was just a minor problem!
I did no driver repair work, no cable work, just was a minor windows detection problem
I removed the printer icon in "Printer and faxes". turned off my printer , turned on again and
hurray windows detected it again, loaded deafualt settinsg with already installed correct drivers!

so preoblem solved
