Free hp printers software for linux

phpMyInventory (PMI) is a web-based inventory program designed to keep track of all your systems, software and peripherals. "Systems" include: PCs, servers, laptops, network printers, etc. See the project page to download v2.81 or to read the change log. Some screenshots are available on the left.

phpMyInventory requires PHP 4.0 or greater and MySQL, and runs on both Apache and IIS webservers. It includes a number of unique features, including:

* A flexible permissions system. For example, you can give users the ability to only view PMI data, the ability to view and update that data, or the view to view, update, and delete data.
* A software license tracker. You can specify whether software licenses are machine or user specific, and PMI will count how many licenses you have left. It will warn you when you drop to zero.

PMI is free and open source (GPL). It is a scaled-down (but completely functional) version of our commercial product, Syslist. Syslist includes features not found in PMI, such as automatic inventory of Windows PC, a ticket system, location tracking, reporting, and numerous UI improvements.

Printbill is a sophistocated Unix print billing and/or accounting system with associated administration utilities. It primarily supports LPRng but now has limited CUPS support as well.
A simple print filter and accompanying daemon perform pre-printing billing, post-printing billing, print-accounting and print job quote generation. In addition, various utilities for administrators and users are provided - including programs to check your print quota and usage patterns, a web interface for both users and administrators and a command-line quote generator.
Charge rates may be specified on per-page, per-percent-coverage or both, and any number of printers/print queues can be provided (with different charge rates and printer parameters). Monochrome and CMYK colour printers are supported (with separate charge rates for both colour and black ink).
For all filters, processing can happen out-of-order, and you may prioritise jobs on the basis of size (jobs larger than a threshold can get lower priority or higher priority as desired) and jobs are billed in parallel / overlapping - jobs which finish billing first get printed first.
This is not necessarily the same as the order of arrival. Detailed stats are collected on a per-printer basis for job size, CPU time for each job, page count and ink/toner coverage, so you can analyse the usage patterns for your printers and predict when a cartridge will need to be replaced. It supports an optional user-supplied anything-to-postscript filter, so you can get properly billed for plain text, DVI files, image files, and so forth as well as PostScript.
Databases and configuration files may be stored on a centralised web server. This allows read-only access so that Unix (and conceivably Windows) clients could easily check quota, calculate quotes etc. remotely.
For fun, an additional filter is provided which allows users to deduct fixed amounts from their accounts (we use it to let students buy drinks and food from an unsecured laboratory fridge).
Enhancements:
- Finished support for per-user per-printer stats, tested that it works.

system-config-printer purpose is to configure a CUPS server (often the local machine) using the CUPS API. The tool is written in Python, using pygtk for the graphical parts and with some Python bindings (pycups) for the CUPS API.
It is largely the same as using the CUPS web interface for configuring printers, but has the advantage of being a native application rather than a web page. It appears in the Fedora menu under System -> Administration -> Printing.
As a result of using the CUPS API the tool is able to configure remote CUPS instances and is not limited to configuring CUPS on the local machine. The CUPS library providing the API uses HTTP and IPP to communicate with the CUPS server.
Enhancements:
- Several improvements for the new-printer wizard have been made, and assorted bugs have been fixed.

TurboPrint is a high-quality printer driver system for Linux built on existing standards (e.g. ghostscript). It is designed to produce maximum quality photo printouts as well as high-speed text documents.

TurboPrint provides printer drivers for almost every inkjet printer, e.g. Canon BJC / S, Epson Stylus Color & Photo, HP DeskJet. All printer features are supported. TurboPrint comes with its own color matching system "TrueMatch".

High quality color profiles ensure optimum color reproduction on all print media (glossy paper, inkjet paper, ...). A comfortable GUI configuration menu and a printer toolbox (head cleaning, alignment, ink quantity) are included.

TurboPrint can be easily integrated into the CUPS printing system. The FreeEdition of TurboPrint can be obtained free of charge. It contains almost the full functionality.

HP Linux Imaging and Printing Driver Project consists of two projects:

1) HPIJS, a printer driver for HP devices

2) HP Linux Imaging and Printing (HPLIP), a complete printing and imaging solution for Linux (note: HPLIP includes HPIJS).

J Operating System is primarily intended for programmers.
Target Users:
- Hobbiests--You used to buy computers to do programming. They didnt do much else. Windows doesnt even come with a compiler, which is ironic since Bill Gates wrote BASIC. The "J" operating system is primarily intended for programmers. Ive attempted to lower the bar, so amateurs can contribute. I hope to recreate the dynamic environment that used to exist when the Commodore 64 was around and everyone was creating odd-ball software.
- Researchers--Im sure many lab researchers still use DOS because they have to interact with hardware, which is difficult with Windows.
Main features:
- No security! You can access all ports, memory and disk blocks to your hearts content. When youre working with your own computer, security just gets in the way and makes things slow--I hate anti-virus and anti-spyware because they just slow things down. When you know you dont have a risk, have no secrets and do regular back-ups, who needs security?
- Uniformity
- There is no virtual memory and everyone is on the same address-map. You can easily communicate between tasks, passing addresses. Addresses start at a base of zero and, essentually, segment registers are not used.
- There is basically one language to learn called "C+" which is a little more than "C", but less than "C++". You dont need to learn a scripting langauge because everything uses this syntax.
- There is an extension of ASCII called "J" rich text which allows colors, links, graphics and various widgets in your documents. This format is used in source code, documents, help, menus, etc.
- Support for compressed, encrypted and contiguous files.
- FAT32, FAT12 and ISO9660 filesystems.
- Blazing-fast compiler which can recompile everything in 5 seconds. It doesnt optimize.
- All source code is included and its still around a Meg.
Hardware:
- PS/2 mouse and keyboard
- VGA graphics
- Some hard drives. Must be on the primary or secondary IDE controller and support LBA28. Drives of 120Gig are the limit.
- Some CD-ROM/DVD drives, including burning.
- Some floppies. Just 1.44Meg and not all types.
- No USB support yet
- No network support yet
- ASCII printers on the parallel port are supported.
