The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Adding a Local (Parallel) Printer to Linux Based HP t5135 Thin Client.

Asked by apache09 in Linux Printing, Linux Networking, Linux

Tags: t5135, printer, hp, thin, client

Looking for assistance with an HP t5135 Linux based thin client used on an Windows Server 2003 network. Specifically looking for further information on adding a local parallel printer to the HP t5135.  As this is Linux based, according to HP all you have to do is type in the printer name in the Printer setting fields(When logged in as Admin). HP support documents say, "Optional" enter the name of the windows printer driver. Once all relevant fields are populated, including the optional fields, you can also Test the settings for the printer. However, all it does is feed through a blank sheet of paper. This is understandable as Im sure the thin client has no idea of what type of printer is connected, only that its a Parallel printer.

Do the Linux based thin clients come pre loaded with all the possible print drivers out there?  I see this highly unlikely but then again Im not a Linux Expert.

Any help on adding a local, parallel, printer to this HP t5135 would be greatly appreciated.
