rnxtras.com

Hi!

I have some questions regarding the apps that can be found on rnxtras.com, but I am unable to find a registration button so that I can post on that forum...

I am thinking of purchasing HeadPhones and OwnCloud and I am wondering if these apps will update automatically to new versions with their own update mechanisms or do I need to wait for update packages to be built?

Thank you in advance!

    WhoCares? is on a well earned vacation (I think it's nearly finished) so his response times may be a little longer than usual. I'm sure he will be keen to look into this once he's back.

    Do you see the option to register when you go to checkout?
  • There was a problem with one of the modules used after the automatic update of the site to WordPress 4.0. This has been fixed and works again now. Sorry for the troubles.

  • Hi,

    I've just bought the RNAirPrint app on rnxtras.com.

    I’ve checked my priter before and it should be supported by HPLIP.
    I’ve installed RNAirPrint as per the installation guide, still I am not able to make it work.

    I get “/usr/lib/cups/filter/hpcups failed” error.

    Do you know any means to correct this problem?

    BTW. What more does RNAirPrint do for 3 USD compared to CUPS and HPLIP? I don’t really see any more than that…?

    thanks,

  • What's the printer model you're using? What version of hplip got installed on your ReadyNAS and is your printer supported in *that* version?
    Where do you get that error?

    Hi Stefan,

    It's an HP LaserJet Professional P1102.
    HPLIP version is 3.12.6-3.1+deb7u1

    My printer is supported from 3.10.4: http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/models/laserjet/hp_laserjet_professional_p1102.html

    CUPS version is 1.5.3-5+deb7u4

    Thanks for your help!

  • I have solved the mystery :)

    The "Next comes the model selection" part cam be a bit misleading, as the top selection is the printer model in question, however it's a driver-less setup.
    I overlooked that the selection box contains a lot of other real drivers as well, so I had to scroll down a lot to find my model's drivers. Now it's working like a charm.

    I suggest to edit the configuration guide to highlight this, as it can be pretty much misleading.

    OFF TOPIC: now the only thing I need is an arm version of automatic :) (http://github.com/1100101/Automatic)
