[SERIAL NO.|USB ID|IP|DEVNODE]
USB bus:device (usb only): "xxx:yyy" where 'xxx' is the USB bus and 'yyy' is the USB device. (Note: The ':' and all leading zeros must be present.)
Use the 'lsusb' command to obtain this information.
IPs (network only): IPv4 address "a.b.c.d" or "hostname"
DEVNODE (parallel only): "/dev/parportX", X=0,1,2,...
SERIAL NO. (usb and parallel only): "serial no."
Examples:
Setup using GUI mode: $ hp-setup
Setup using GUI mode, specifying usb: $ hp-setup -b usb
Setup using GUI mode, specifying an IP: $ hp-setup 192.168.0.101
One USB printer attached, automatic: $ hp-setup -i -a
USB, IDs specified: $ hp-setup -i 001:002
Network: $ hp-setup -i 66.35.250.209
Network, Jetdirect port 2: $ hp-setup -i --port=2 66.35.250.209
Parallel: $ hp-setup -i /dev/parport0
USB or parallel, using serial number: $ hp-setup -i US12345678A
USB, automatic: $ hp-setup -i --auto 001:002
Parallel, automatic, no testpage: $ hp-setup -i -a -x /dev/parport0
Parallel, choose device: $ hp-setup -i -b par
Notes:
1. If no serial number, USB ID, IP, or device node is specified, the USB and parallel busses will be probed for devices.
2. Using 'lsusb' to obtain USB IDs: (example)
$ lsusb
Bus 003 Device 011: ID 03f0:c202 Hewlett-Packard
$ hp-setup --auto 003:011
(Note: You may have to run 'lsusb' from /sbin or another location. Use '$ locate lsusb' to determine this.)
3. Parameters -a, -f, -p, or -t are not valid in GUI (-u) mode.
