1)Open a document using Open Office.
2)Go to ?File? ?Print?
3) Get options of ?Generic Printer? or ?Kprinter?.
4) If I choose ?Generic Printer? nothing happens
when I try to print.
5) If I choose ?KPrinter? then the Kprint dialog
comes up with a dashed line.
6) Open the KPrinter ?Add Printer Wizard? I can
click the ?Next? button and get to what printer
settings are available.
7) I click on ?Local Printer?, ?Next?
8) Then ?Parallel? and then I need to enter
something in the ?URI? field. What goes in there?
9) If I put a number in the URI field, it will say
Number doesn't match port then a driver database list
opens. Then I selected HP ? HP Deskjet 842C.
10) It comes up with a ?Test? and ?Settings? options
page.
11) When I try to print I get ?Enter User Name? and
?Password? box.
12) Finally it comes back with ?Authentication
Failed?.
Alas ?No Printing? possible. Any help possible.
