Problem with Cups and Samsung ML-1640

kerlin · Oct 7, 2014

Good day to all FreeBSD users and developers!

I want to ask help with getting working USB printer with cups.
I'm connect fine from Windows client to that printer with url: http://192.168.1.240:631/printers/ml1640
But when I send any task to printer, it just appears in cups web interface with status:

Code:

Waiting for printer to become available.

I'm trying various USB cables and USB ports and nothing changes. And with that cables on windows that printer works fine.

I don't use CUPS, but some printers prefer the non-resetting USB printer device. Where it says /dev/ulpt0, try /dev/unlpt0 instead.

I have a Samsung ML-1740 and I can't configure it properly either. I only know that i have to install Splix, but CUPS still is incapable to detect my printer.
