I recently tried configuring my macbook to print to my HP Photosmart 7260 that is attached to my Slackware box. Theoretically, this should be easy because I could just set up an IPP printer and be away.
Unfortunately, despite my printer being listed as natively supported by Mac OS X 10.4, there are only 2 Photosmart printers in the list of HP drivers to choose from, the 100 and 1100 IIRC.
Should the PhotoSmart 7260 be listed as a specific printer or is the entire photosmart range covered for print only by the two drivers that I can see? I tried installing the foomatic/hpijs drivers just to see if that would work, but they are causing 'no document sent' errors on the server when I try to print.
Thanks,
