If you want to print good test pages, use hpcups, if you want to print documents, use hpijs. The cups paper settings that make sense for me are:įor a pity there is no explanation (Borderless printing? Yes of course I want this, what is the disadvantage?)Īs said, there are two drivers, the default, new one, hpcups and the old one, hpijs. To get the scanning functionality to work you need to install the package hplip, e.g. Printing with the hpijs driver under LibreOffice works without un-printed margins. If you turn off duplex print this problem exists no longer: The printer test page will be cut off at about 1.5cm above the lower end of the paper: The printer cannot print onto the full length of first side because it has to keep the paper partially in in order to be ready to draw back and turn around the paper. Printing the test page with duplex print, this works bad. This means that you will be able to bind your papers on the long edge. I selected DIN A4 as paper size and double-sided printing Long-Edge (Standard). Then, on my computer I made sure cups is running and surfed to When I clicked on Printer -> Add Printer it appeared automatically as 'Network Printer'. I installed the HP OfficeJet 6700 by switching it on an following the instructions on the printer's display.
