ADF not recognized Ubuntu 11.04 6500A Plus

Hi Joan,

ADF support is already provided for this model. Please download and install the latest HPLIP 3.11.5 release from http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/gethplip.html.

Thanks for using HPLIP.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi,

Thanks for the tip... but still no luck:

1. I purged all Utuntu hpijs & hplip 3.11.1 packages,
2. rebooted,
3. installed downloaded 3.11.5 with no errors, but one warning:
"warning: No PPD found for model officejet_6500_e710n-z using new algorithm. Trying old algorithm..."
4. rebooted (I don't know if this step is needed, but...).

After step 4, I logged in as my normal user, and a window named "HPLIP Status Service" popped up, showing the following information:
"No system tray detected on this system. Unable to start, exiting."

But printing was working, and so was scanning through flatbed.

On the other side, ADF is now shown as an option, but it is not working (output of "hp-scan --adf" at the bottom).

Could I provide any more information to help debugging the issue?

Thanks!

Hi Joan,

This is a Known Issue for HPLIP 3.11.5 release. We are not able to scan from terminal through ADF. Please refer the known issues at http://hplipopensource.com/node/352. But we can scan from ADF through Xsane.

Thanks and Regards,

Hello,

   ADF scan from command-line "hp-scan --adf" will be fixed in 3.11.7 release. As of now you can use Xsane for ADF scanning.

Thanks

Hi,

It seems ADF scanning through Xsane is not working for me. After the scanner starts moving the document that's to be scanned, xsane shows a window titled "Error", content (translated from catalan) "Scanner couldn't be initialized: I/O error on device".

Xsane is not showing any output when run from a console.

Any hint on how to debut?

TIA ;)

This question was expired because it remained in the 'Open' state without activity for the last 15 days.

This exact same error is happening for me on 10.10 and 11.04, using hplip 3.11.7.

Up until earlier today it was working fine, until the printer wanted to update its firmware. Now I'm getting the I/O error code=9. Any ideas?

Hi Carl-Eric!

I've created a bug report -it's linked to this Question-; you're advised to join it.

Thanks.

Hi,

  You can download the patches bb_ledm.c.patch and ledm.c.path from https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/819709.

 Please integrate in your source code of hplip installed.

 Go to the directory in commandline and run "make" and "sudo make install". You can scan afterwards from ADF.

However this issue will be fixed in hplip-3.11.10 release.

 Thanks,

Thanks Sarbeswar Meher, that solved my question.
