Hi Pelle. I got this working a while ago if you're still interested =)

1. Download hplip from http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/in ... index.html and put it up on bubba server
2. As root run

Code: Select all

apt-get install libcupsimage2-dev
3. Run the hplip script as normal user.
4. Restart cups

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/cups restart
5. Go to http://bubba:631/printers and add the new printer, the model should now be in the list.
6. On your mac go to printers and click the plus symbol.
7. The printer should now be under default as <description>@bubba
8. You're happy!
