<0> he wants user@histhost.com for irc
<1> thats ident then. if he is on core why not install and confiure pident or oident?
<0> er
<0> no its not
<2> hi anybody here help with installing printer/scanner drivers
<0> ident is just the first bit
<2>
<1> I never use linux as a desktop so I don't care about ident. mIRC on windows which has its own ident but hey who cares
<0> [Strabo]: he wants the host different
<3> ...
<3> znx: that is the end then ?
<3> znx: no conclusion ?
<0> er..
<0> i told you what you need to do?
<0> get a static ip.. get a dns entry pointing to it
<0> if you cant get a static ipv4 ip.. .then use a ipv6 from a tunnel broker
<0> as for the dns.. well hunt around
<3> so when I get a static ip
<3> can I chose a hostname then ?
<2> sorry signed off by accident
<0> mtn_man_: did you check to make sure that your printer/scanner is supported?
<0> _markus: you can point anything at the ipv6 yes
<2> I know my particular model doesn't have a driver but someone has found another model's driver that will work
<2> I just have no clue on how to install thses things
<0> ok whats the make and model?
<2> lexmark x1185
<1> look if you want to tight wadd it out and you have static go to www.godadfdy.com and get a domain name for $9 (like I did) then poit the dns to your dns server (linux box) or if your dynamic (like I am) pay $50 a year for www.tzo.com and point your dns info to their servers and run their client and your done (like I do). if you host your own dns server your attacks ar going to go up 100 fold. good luck :0.
<1> www.godady.com
<2> huh?
<1> sorry for the typo
<0> mtn_man_: i think i seen a bit about this
<2> znx:; oh?
<0> hold on..
<1> lexmark is crap, sell it and get an hp.
<2> I have crossposted several places no replies
<2> ugh
<0> http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Lexmark_Printers here
<2> I thought I'd try to make it work before I did that (it was a xmas gift)
<0> says.. Printers confirmed to work Lexmark x1185 :D
<0> mtn_man_: what distro?
<2> suse 10.0 don't some apps works across distros?
<0> its not that.. you should be able to make it work with any
<1> linux is basically linux
<0> yeah
<0> and drivers.. they are all kernel related..
<0> so its generally if it works on one.. it works on all
<1> though sometimes you can use wrappers.
<2> that's a comforting tho't
<2> I only recently switched to linux (just before xmas) I know little or no unix cmds. I didn't realize how hard this would be (spoiled by windoze)
<0> yeah everyone builds for windows..
<0> i will say that your lucky to find one that is in the working category ;)
<2> znx: are you gonna be here a lil while? should I just try to follow the directions on this site & get back to you if I have more questions?
<2> I will need a lil help to walk me thru it since I am an ubernoob
<0> its 3:35am here .. so no :(
<2> :(
<0> im just lining up for bed actually :|
<2> znx: can I look you up tomorrow?
<2> then?
<2> email etc?
<0> sure
<0> ill be here
<0> always ;)
<2> ok thx very very much
<2> I'll cya tomorrwn then thx again
<4> mtn_man_: go to the cups page and look for the supported printers
<4> and, most of the lexmark printers will support the HP protocol so you can probably go to its configuration and set it for HP5 support and use the HP5 drivers
<4> or, better yet, use postscript
<2> p38: oh?
<2> use an hp5 driver for the lexmark??
<4> all my lexmarks will emulate the hp4 or hp5
<2> explain postscript?
<4> it is a setting on the printer
<2> ok you use cups for that?
<4> well.. the printer will have a setting for the emulation
<4> if the printer supports postscript, use that over anything else
<2> what's w/this localhost 631 biz?
<2> I can't login
<4> and yes, cups is a great program for controlling printers and print spools
<4> if cups is running, then you can connect to it with yoru web browser at localhost:631
<2> yeah I saw some of the stuff I am like totally lost when it comes to configuration of devices
<2> ok
<4> it has good docs... dont change anything until you have read them
<2> so you are sayhing I don't need a special lexmark driver? hp will do?
<2> ok
<4> but configuring a printer is just a simple point and click process
<2> I couldn't login to local host 631 yes'day
<4> start with your lexmark docs. if it does not support postscript, find the setting to support hp5
<2> on the kde ?
<2> configure box?
<2> im on the add printer wizard in kde
<4> CONFIGURE YOUR PRINTER FIRST
<4> then linux
<2> ok how does that work? (sorry...)
<4> how does what work
<2> this has me in ksendfax that can't be rt.
<2> configure print server?
<2> ok
<2> brb lemme reboot
<2> thx for your patience
