Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has worked on a basic printing profile server
for Linux? By server, I mean a way that phones or other small devices
can send jobs to a Linux desktop host which would then print through
CUPS (or lpd, etc.).
It seems like a missing piece, since CUPS can already print to bluetooth
printers.
My new phone supports printing of SMS messages and photos, so before I
try writing a server for it, I wanted to check to see if someone has
done it.
Thanks,
Adam

Hi
I have seen the dump of a printing application for Nokia phones (Nokia
6600). Its developed by nokia and HP collectively. It asks for BPP. However
it wont work with your device if you don't support
application/vnd.pwg-multiplexed doc format. Same goes with Nokia N Series.
Regards,
Sumeet

there have been ideas about it, but I can't recall an actual implementation.
However it might happen that INdT starts working on something like this in
the future.

The CUPS plugin can only print via HCRP and Serial Port Profile.

There are many printing profiles around. You should check which one the
phone actually uses. Run "hcidump -X -V" and look for the profile UUID it
requests.

Does someone still interested on help me?
The objective is create a BPP server(CUPS proxy). The objects/jobs are
pushed to the desktop(BPP server), PostScripts and raw text documents
it works perfect since CUPS already supports filters for these
formats. However for XHTML-Print we have to implement a new CUPS
filter. I don't want convert XHTML-Print to PostScript inside in the
BlueZ.
The simple push model is trivial, however for the Job-Based transfer
model we need put more effort. The current prototype is able to handle
SOAP messages, but I am facing a problem: I have no idea how retrieve
a referenced image.
This is the last data received after create a job:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
...
<body>
...
<div class="page_last">
<div id="img_frame" class="position1">
<img class="img_details1"
src="obex:1120/mmc/09242007082.jpg" alt=""/>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
According to the BPP spec the referenced img should be retrived using
a object channel/reverse channel, defined in the Sender's Basic
Printing Referenced Objects Service Record. But my N95 doesn't
contains any record with this UUID. How can I retrieve this img? I
tried to send a GetReferencedObjects msg in the same job
channel(instead of establish a reverse connection) but it is not
working. The printer I ordered will arrive next week only :-(
BR,
Claudio.
