hp 1050 cant print or scan
Firstly many thanks in advance for all help received . I have just started using puppy linux 5.2 ( lucid) which has transformed my old PC . The only real problem encountered is that I cant get my HP 1050C to print or scan . Running the cups wizard gives me the option of the printer and I found a driver in the list. The table below shows the printer settings being used . Sending jobs or maintenance to the printer has no effect although the cups system says they are complete . Xsane does not see the scanner . The printer functions fine under windows . I am obviously missing something very basic
Description: HP Deskjet 1050 J410 series

With scanning you'll need hplip and sane installed. I don't use Puppy so don't know how those are labeled but that should get you started. Here's a good page to look over...

Go to the Puppy Linux Forum... In 'HARDWARE' (one of the topics on the first page in one of the sections) you will find the proper HPLIP already made into a .pet for your printer... works great!
