Printer problem under Linux

Printer problem under Linux

AVM FRITZ! Box 7390 Wireless Router (VDSL / ADSL, 300 Mbit / s, DECT base station, Media Server) (Personal Computers)

Customer Review

I have my Speedbox W501 replaced by the Fritz box 7390 to 2 computers, a printer operate an ISDN telephone and a DECT phone with a box can. Under Windows XP this works excellent. However, it puzzled me that the printer was operated only via the USB remote connection.
A real problem I got when I tried to run with Linux printer. The device bearing cups is actually not a problem, the installation was perfect and when you try a test print came a message.:
"Fritz is busy, retry in 5 Sec". The tests were endless ...
Since nothing could cause this utilization, there had to be another reason. Could that with the setting up remote access to do? But when the switch-off This option also brought no success, I found out with considerable effort that the Fritzbox a PostScript printer expects, what more is a rarity in home networks.
If the printer does not support Postschript, you have to go over the remote connection. Once installed, the works only for Windows operating systems. Only when you try to install the remote connection for Linux, we learn that the is not available for this operating system is available and so Linux can not find a printer on the network. There then remains nothing else, than to resort again to the old printer switch.
If the device also against my Speedbox because of its multifunctionality is an ordinary progress, also has reserves for future developments, so I feel the limitation when connecting a printer already as sensitive disadvantage particularly because this constraint was not mentioned in the product description. Something you do not like as a customer, so only 3 Sterne.AVM FRITZ! Box Fon WLAN 7390 WLAN routers
