<6> anybody feel like helping me get my printer working?
<2> thanks i'll try that thx Al-Ashtar
<7> R-C : How much time did you save by typing thx? Was it worth it to irritate all of the channel regulars?
<1> Wise-Guy: ask the question...
<6> randyg__, i'm not sure what the question is
<6> i have a page of instructions, and the packages
<6> but when i type them into the terminal, what is does is not what they say it should do
<1> first step, use debian, cups, and gimp-print. :P
<6> and, since i still can't make head or tails out of what the terminal does say, i'm daunted
<6> ok, i got something with cups in it, on my desktop
<6> i don't recognize gimp-print
<1> what printer do you have?
<6> i do have alien
<6> i have lexmark 600 series
<6> z603, i think
<1> ugh, lexmark royally ****s. check linuxprinting.org to make sure your model is supported.
<5> R-C: that's a very nice page on how to use gateways don't you think ?
<5> I bookmarked it
<5> lol
<6> if you can step me thru it, i can show you the instruction page i'm working from
<1> I would strongly suggest an Epson printer if you want good linux support...

<6> randyg__, price is an object
<6> right now, ANY price
<6> this is a large part of my attraction to linux
<6> i have that driver downloaded already, it's sitting on my desktop
<6> z600cups-1.0-1.gz.sh
<6> that one
<6> and i have the alien thing installed
<6> tar -xvzf CJLZ600LE-CUPS-1.0-1.TAR.gz
<1> no clue. that printer seems _very_ poorly supported under linux.
<6> but that didn't work, i don't think
<6> i don't think the cups ever actually got installed when i tried it
<6> let alone the driver
<1> are you using debian?
<6> sorta, ubuntu
<6> i'm told it's very debian like
<6> i first saw a linux desktop less than a week ago
<6> that's why i'm asking all these newbie questions
<6> i'm digging it so far : )
<1> so apt-get install cupsys cupsys-bsd cupsys-client cupsys-pt foomatic-db foomatic-db-engine foomatic-filters foomatic-filters-ppds gs-common gs-esp
<1> and any other packages that look useful
<1> THEN try installing the z600 driver...
<6> holy cow
<6> can i put that in the terminal all at the sametime?
<6> or as seperate entries?
<1> just what I typed. heh.
<1> the whole line
<6> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
<6> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
<6> it says that
<1> as root.
<6> ubuntu has no root
<1> then add sudo in front of all of it
<6> ok
<6> oh, it just went nuts doing something
<6> Setting up cupsys-pt (1.2.4-3ubuntu1) ...
<6> that's good, right?
<1> yes
<6> cool
<6> i knew all i needed was someone with a clue to step me thru here
<1> what's the web page for the z600 driver you're using?
<6> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-83456.html
<6> it includes that cups thing, so you might be able to skip ahead
<1> so when the command I gave finishes (it makes sure all standard cups stuff, ghostscript, etc is installed), then do the instructions given in the first post on the forum.
<6> ok
<6> isn't there some part here where i should change something to a .deb file?
<6> somebody said something about that
<1> it's all in the instructions in the first post on the forum
<6> i did the first line, which is this one
<6> tar -xvzf CJLZ600LE-CUPS-1.0-1.TAR.gz
<6> is that the right one to start at?
<1> wait until what I gave finishes running, then do every command as they said, in the order they gave.
<6> ok, it says this to that
<6> tar: CJLZ600LE-CUPS-1.0-1.TAR.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
<6> tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
<6> tar: Child returned status 2
<6> tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
<1> ... are you in the directory the file is in?
<6> do i need the full path to the file?
<1> where did you save it when you downloaded?
<6> ok, it's on the desktop
<1> cd ~/Desktop probably
<1> then try again
<6> ok
<6> says this now
<6> lee@lee-desktop:~/Desktop$ tar -xvzf CJLZ600LE-CUPS-1.0-1.TAR.gz
<6> tar: CJLZ600LE-CUPS-1.0-1.TAR.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
<1> and did you download that exact file?
<6> this is the location that the file shows under properties
<6> /home/lee/Desktop
<1> and is the name identical? did you download a different one than the instructions?
<6> not sure
<6> how can i double check, i think i did
<1> ... maybe you should try a bit on your own before asking?
<6> randyg__, i have been, honest
<1> yes, but not being able to tell if the bloody name is the same involves READING THE SCREEN. it's not something I usually tell people how to do. Oh well, there's these things called "letters"...
<6> yes
<6> i downloaded that one
<6> here it is from the downoad site
<6> CJLZ600LE-CUPS-1.0-1.TAR.gz
<6> i just don't know where it is now
<1> and what does ls show?
<6> tail -n +143 z600cups-1.0-1.gz.sh
<6> i got up to that one, it's going nuts now
<1> ... can you not follow instructions?
<1> tail -n +143 z600cups-1.0-1.gz.sh > install.tar.gz
<6> ok now i'm up to here
