  Colour (color) printing as grey on Xerox Phaser 6280DN
Posted by: Richard B - 04-24-2021, 03:00 PM - Forum: Printing and Scanning - No Replies

Can anyone help?  When using LL4 I could print in colour. With LL5 (recently upgraded to 5.4) I am only getting greyscale output whichever of the various suggested drivers I install. Using the default (Make and Model: Xerox Phaser 6250N Foomatic/Postscript which shows the driver as POSTSCRI.PPD on a test print) there is no colour option under Printer Options but there is under Job Options - "Printer-color-mode" is set to "monochrome" with NO other choice!.

I have now obtained "6280DN.ppd" from Xerox and tried that. Still getting monochrome only from this computer. Trying a fresh LL5.4 install on a different computer I still get monochrome only with the offered drivers but can at last get colour if I use the Xerox ppd. The versions of the CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) modules - including the postscript driver - are identical.

  How to edit /etc/fstab to mount a windowsshare permanent
Posted by: llmojo - 04-20-2021, 08:03 PM - Forum: Network - Replies (6)

Hello everyone

On my windows10-PC with virtualbox and LinuxLite5.4. I've created a share on windows. Now i try to follow the instruction at this link
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently. In Linuxlite the entire samba package is installed.
So i've created a mountpoint /media/win_share, a credentials-file /homelinuxlite/.smbcredentials with username, password and domain and edit /ect/fstab.

the entry in /etc/fstab looks like this right now:

Code:
//xxx.xxx.xx.x/win_share /media/win_share cifs credentials=/home/linuxlite/.smbcredentials,noauto,uid=1000,gid=1000,dir_mode=0700,file_mode=1000,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm 0 0

a. Does th options have an order? or are they random?

the win_share appears on the desktop but unmounted. when i click on it i got an error massage
Quote:mount: /media/win_share:this operation can be excuted by user root

b. where is my failure ?

ps:I am new to Linux and thank you for your help

  ClamAV not updating daily database

ClamAV was recently updated to 103.2 (via Install Updates):

I use ClamAV only occasionally, with a wrapper Shell script based on the tutorial in the Help Manual. It fails in the first step:

I disabled the daemon because I do not want to further slow down the computer, and because it is never up long enough for the processes to finish. But the manual process used to work (downloaded the database no matter how far behind it was), although it took a long time to scan even small directories.

  A3 printing
Posted by: Richard B - 04-20-2021, 01:52 PM - Forum: Printing and Scanning - No Replies

This might help someone. I have an old HP LaserJet 5000n printer with a by-pass tray (tray 1), A4 in tray 2 and A3 in tray 3. It has been working for donkeys' years with Linux Lite and Windows. However, come a LinuxLite 5 install the A3 option vanished when following the default printer install path (which loads as "HP LaserJet 5000 Series pcl3, hpcups 3.20.3")  Sad . However, it does offer A3 if I choose "HP LaserJet 5000 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.3.3" - which also gives more useful tray descriptions  Smile .

  Update error related to Team Viewer

Hi,

I was not able to update my system today.  I get the following error:

pk-client-error-quark: E: Failed to fetch https://linux.teamviewer.com/deb/-dists/.../InRelease  403 Forbidden [IP 13:33:68:109 443}
E: The repository 'https://linux.teamviewer.com/deb stable InRelease' is not signed.
W: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore

Are y'all aware of this error?  A friend is getting it on their PC.  I disabled the update repository for Team Viewer and was able to successfully update my system.  I hope you get this fixed soon.  I use Team Viewer regularly with friends and family so I need to stay updated. 

Thanks for the great OS.
