Try to hook up a Minolta Pagepro 1300 via USB on B3. Installation on Windows machine looks OK. Testpage appears to printing but nothing comes out of the printer. PagePro is a GDI printer. Any clues of what to do ?
Printer works OK when hooked up to the PC USB port. Windows 7 driver is used.

Printing on B3
Re: Printing on B3

Does your printer show there? if so, select it and verify what driver it uses.
If it does not show, you'll need to manually add it. Now you have two options: you can either install it using the correct driver (is it Pagepro 1300W?) or you can select "Raw" as Make/Brand. "Raw" means that whatever you feed the B3 will be passed straight on to the printer. If you selected a driver you should pass generic Postscript (HP4/4M LJ for monochrome or HP Color LJ are the best choices here in Windows).
Usually the printer will be visible through the B3's Samba file sharing (may require reloading Samba). if you want to use this, you must have a valid login session with Samba to be able to print. You can also add the printer in Windows by selecting "network printer" and entering http://B3:631/printers/PrinterName as the location.
