Hi,

        I'm having issues with getting an HP all-in-one to do anything but
print.

        I have tried the following: hpoj, hpijs, sane, etc.

HPOJ doesn't recognize the USB device at all. (version 0.91_3) It
looks for libusb and finds it. However, the ptal-init doesn't see
anything on the USB bus.

        Details:

        FreeBSD 5.3 RELEASE
        i386 platform
        HP OfficeJet 6110 with printer, copier, scanner, fax, ADF
        usbd is running
        libusb 0.1.7 is installed, too.
        sane-backends 1.0.15

I have kernel modules loaded now with the appropriate things in my
kernel for USB support. (Yes, I have tried the reverse with them in my
kernel and without the modules.)

16 1 0xc23b5000 3000 uscanner.ko
17 1 0xc2404000 3000 ulpt.ko

        I have a GENERIC kernel with all the following: (I have tried this
with ehci in and out, too)

# USB support
device ehci
device uhci # UHCI PCI->USB interface
device ohci # OHCI PCI->USB interface
device usb # USB Bus (required)
#device udbp # USB Double Bulk Pipe devices
device ugen # Generic
device uhid # "Human Interface Devices"
device ukbd # Keyboard
#device ulpt # Printer
device umass # Disks/Mass storage - Requires scbus
and da
device ums # Mouse
#device urio # Diamond Rio 500 MP3 player
#device uscanner # Scanners

        usb connection

        As can be seen, the USB bus recognizes the printer and puts it
on /dev/ulpt0.

usbdevs -vvd
Controller /dev/usb0:
addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, UHCI root hub(0x0000),
VIA(0x0000), rev 1.00
  uhub0
 port 1 addr 2: full speed, self powered, config 1, OfficeJet 6100
Series(0x2d11), Hewlett-Packard(0x03f0), rev 1.00
   ulpt0
 port 2 powered
Controller /dev/usb1:
addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, UHCI root hub(0x0000),
VIA(0x0000), rev 1.00
  uhub1
 port 1 powered
 port 2 addr 2: full speed, self powered, config 1, Generic USB
Hub(0x9254), ALCOR(0x058f), rev 1.00
   uhub2
  port 1 powered
  port 2 powered
  port 3 powered
  port 4 powered

Funky stuff:

        I have unplugged the unit and watched it remove the devices. Upon
plugging it back in, the usbdevs shows it to be /dev/uscanner0. Huh?
Is that due to the order of the KLDs? If so, why did it show up as
ulpt0 in the first place? (I've also tried this singly with the just
ulpt0 or uscanner.)

        Now, get this, I have an Epson 2500 Stylus Scan that does pretty much
the same functions. However, this thing recognizes individual devices
for the scanner, for the adf, for the printer, etc. I thought HP was
supposed to be smart and with a good, intelligent printer. However,
this doesn't seem to be the case. The Epson seems pretty
straightforward in comparison...and everything works.

        So, please help. I'm at a loss. I can't seem to track this down.

        Thank you,

        Paul Pathiakis

PS - I'm now looking at hplip. I don't know if it'll do any good,
but...
