Yes, I know that it is a known issue and that there is no solution at the moment. It even seems the reason is unknown at the moment. I never had it before but now I can reproduce it and I am interested to find out the actual reason. > The workaround is to upgrade cups to 1.2.x. This is not a possible workaround for the product which I am talking about: Suse Linux Enterprise Desktop 10 (and also the Suse Linux Enterprise Server 10). Both are based upon Suse Linux 10.1 which has CUPS 1.1.23. Currently I am evaluating if an upgrade to the newest HPLIP is possible for those products. It is not possible in an enterprise environment to force our customers to upgrade their whole printing system only because of an upgrade of one printer driver package. In business environment it is often not possible to upgrade whatever software to whatever newer version because this may invalidate existing certifications (third party software may be certified to work o.k. e.g. with CUPS 1.1.23) or an upgrade may invalidate existing support contracts (e.g. the support department must be prepared to answer questions about a particular software version running on a particular Linux distribution running a particular hardware). > We are looking at other solutions as well. I would like to help you as good as I can to find the actual reason and then try to find a solution so that an upgrade to the newest HPLIP is possible for our business customers. Is there a way to get even more detailed debug messages what exactly hp-setup does (or tries to do) when it comes to this error? In particular because it works via CUPS command line tools it indicates that CUPS should not be the actual reason. I think it is something special what hp-setup does why it doesn't work - I guess it does (or tries to do) something which is not in full compliance to how CUPS works.
