#linux
bye bye
after years I give up - no #debian no #knoppix no #ubuntu (especially not #ubuntu-mate )
it's not that I am not eager to search through sites looking for some helpful advice - and often it has been helpful
but after 2 years of trying to get #cups working I am pissed off
yesterday it worked (by chance) today nothing .... no time to switch through menus after menus to get one page into #print
(by the way the office org /libre office package instructions are as deliriously unhelpful as all the hints I got these last years about printing)
and my time on this planet is getting short ... I put a year ago some shitty comments on this site about these nerds with their wonderful
"constructions" which only make the things more complicated than it should be
internet, print, that's all
so: no consolation or again endless hints of howtos, please ....
welcome NSA

my #question is: I need a cheap laptop whatsoever with #windows where I can connect printer, internet whatever simple things are required
any suggestions where to get it in Germany or Europe ?

4. HAPPY LABELING 🙂

(print some nice sentences… and make ’em stick… e.g. to a traffic light post… )

for example:

it can do pictures fairly fast…

“fascinating” isn’t it?

GNU Linux (Debian 11) - Brother HL-5450DN reliable Black and White Laser printer - that works out of the box with cups - filter those laser printers

Brother HL-5450DN

<span style="color: #00ffff;">lsb_release -d</span>; # tested on
Description:    Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)

# with mate desktop
<span style="color: #00ffff;">su - root</span>
<span style="color: #00ffff;">apt update; apt install mate-desktop-environment;</span>
ii  mate-desktop-environment              1.24.0+4                         all          MATE Desktop Environment (metapackage)

good job all involved 🙂

the MFC 9465 and 9460 and 9332 also should work “smooth” (the install script (which will download & install additional drivers) might be needed for scan functionality)

laser printers & health

  • it might be wise, to give the laser printers it’s own room (get a room)
    • living room
    • sliping room
    • dining room
  • plus a filter on the output fan vents (it’s the large one on the right-top side)
      • tested and yes, a lot of black sooth will accumulate here

#Aide #linux #debian #bullseye #imprimante #cups

HELP !! Demande d'aide pour faire fonctionner une imprimante depuis Debian 11

Je n'arrive pas Ă  faire fonctionner mon imprimante, une canon Pixma TR4550.
gdebi me dit que le pilote récupéré sur le site Canon est installé, j’ai tenté des solutions avec l’installation de cups, gutenprint, foomatic-db… rien n'y fait.
Sur cups on me demande un nom d'utilisateur et un mot de passe, j'ai essayé root et utilisateur, rien ne marche.
Ah et quand je la branche en usb, apparemment elle n'est pas reconnue (rien n'apparaît avec lsusb).

Apparemment, ils sèchent sur les forums debian, pas de réponse... alors s'il vous plaît, faites tourner vers des gens compétents et dispos, MERCI BEAUCOUP ! J'AI BESOIN DE MON IMPRIMANTE !!

ps: j'ai fait ce que j'ai pu en lisant les posts des forums...mais étant inexpérimentée j'ai parfois peur de faire des bêtises. Là j'ai fait le tour de ce que je pouvais essayer.
