Re: Adding Tioga USB Printers Automatically from Panther



Did you remember to update the pmcache? Let us know if that doesn't fix your problem.

Hi all,

PSU automatic queue creation for my Tioga USB driver does not work on Panther.
(Of cource, it works well on Puma & Jaguar.)


I've found the following mail, but no answer for this.

Is this Panter bug?
Or does anyone know the solution?

Any advice will be appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

I know this issue has been tossed around before, but it still seems like a
Panther bug to me. My USB printer is added automatically from Print Center
(Jaguar) but not Printer Setup Utility (Panther). The DeviceID string is
"MFG:Kodak;CMD:KOD;MDL:8500 Digital Photo Printer;CLS:Printer;DES:Kodak
Professional;", and we are using the string "MDL:8500 Digital Photo
Printer" (though I accidentally used "MODEL:..." initially).
The same thing happens with a different printer whose DeviceID string is
"MFG:Kodak;CMD:CPDNPA001;MODEL:Kodak 8500;CLASS:Printer;DES:Kodak
8500;COMMENT:001208-3;". I modified CreatePrinterTickets so the
kPMPrinterLongNameKey, kPMPrinterShortNameKey, and kPMMakeAndModelNameKey
all use "Kodak 8500". As a result, the PPD file (created by adding the
printer manually) contains *Manufacturer: "Kodak", *Product: "(Kodak
8500)", and *ModelName:, *ShortNickName:, and *NickName: values of "Kodak
8500".
Does anyone know what's going on? (Paul Danbold wrote on 5 Nov 2003
regarding this issue, and he stated the PPD file's *Product key should
match the DeviceID MDL key. Could the issue be our DeviceID string uses
MODEL instead (for printer #2)?
