What do you mean by "cups log"?

lpstat shows the status of cups. It says nothing about how the job
progressed through the filtering system.

The wiki explains how to get the smallest possible error_log. Obtain
one for each of the "old" and "new" machines using

  lp /etc/nsswitch

They will compress to a tenth of their sizes with gzip or xz. Post the
two compressed logs here.

It is possible that your printer can´t emulate the old Matrix Printers and so 
it can´t
Print Text directly the same goes for GDI Printers.
Hope that helps a little pointing out the Problem.

Printer Setup Problem

2017-06-12 Thread Thomas George

Two computers, an old pc with Debian Stretch and a new Raspberry Pi with 
the raspbian jessie operating system.


The old pc prints to a lan printer with no problem. The lpstat -t shows 
the identical set up on the Raspberry Pi but a command lp test.txt 
results in no printer output although the cups log shows the job as 
completed.


I have attached a script of the output of lpstat -t on the Raspberry Pi. 
The output of this command on the old pc is absolutely identical except 
for the dates and times.


Where should I look to fix this?

Hi All,

I'm attempting to use a Canon Image Class MF628Cw from Debian. I downloaded
the drivers from the Canon website at
https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/support/details/printers/color-laser/mf628cw.
I installed them via dpkg, then added the printer in CUPS via a web browser

The printer did not come with a USB cable, and is connected to the LAN.
CUPS sees the printer, and the printer appears as available when I attempt
to print from evince. However, after sending the print signal, the printer
does not print. The "Jobs" page in CUPS says "No jobs," but if I click on

Hi,

I have Canon Image Reader Advanced 4025/4035 printer which from windows host I 
add printer as PRXXX on SRXXX.  

I can nmap SRXXX and output is below:

I know its IP and PRXXX is probably its name.  Now with that information what I

I have added two network printers without any noticeable problem, not

Anyway, have you tried adding the printer from CUPS web UI (http://

This will go faster if we know more about the software you are using to
connect to the printer. If the printer is a network printer connected
via a 'network printer hub you will need the IP address of the hub and
the port to which the printer is connected. if it is connected to a
windows network you may need to install samba to use it. If it is
connected 'directly to the computer that has debian installed, it is not
really a network printer. You will also need a printer software
interface. I strongly suggest cups as it may be managed adequately from
a web interface located at http://localhost:631 on most machines.
another very useful tool for managing all of this is webmin. Look into
it.
Hope this helps!

I'm not sure what is wrong, but I have a suggestion.  CUPS has a nice,
and in my experience, reliable, Web interface for configuration.  You
can access it by having your browser connect to http://localhost:631/;.

I would suggest using the Manage Printers selection, in the Welcome
section of the page, first, to see if the printer setup you did created
anything.  If you see it there, you can then choose to Modify Printer
to verify the setup and perhaps find and fix the problem.  You may also
want to look at Set Printer Options, to be sure they are correct.

If you don't see the printer listed, then you should use the Add
Printer link to set it up again.

Printer setup not working

2008-12-30 Thread Zach Uram

I hope it is ok to post this in here, the packages are the same in Debian.

Here is what I've done to get my HP Deskjet 960c color inkjet printer
working in Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake):

Booted up, hooked my printer up to the parallel port and powered it
on, added paper, printer's green light is on.

I then went to System - Administration - Printing
Clicked on New Printer and it ran gnome-cups-add and read the printer database

Then the Add a Printer dialog box says:
Step 1 of 3: Printer Connection
Printer Type: local printer
Use a detected printer: HP DESKJET_960C

It has in Printer Port: (greyed out so I can't change it):
hp:/par/DESKJET_960C?device=/dev/parport0 (HP DESKJET_960C)

So it detected my correct printer.

Then I went Forward to:
Step 2 of 3: Printer Driver
Manufacturer: HP
Model: Deskjet 960C
Driver: hpijs (recommended) - HPLIP 0.9.7 (Suggested) There is a green
dot after this showing it is installed.

Then I went Forward to:
Step 3 of 3: Printer Information
Name: Deskjet
Description: HP-DESKJET
Location: home

So after I filled those in I clicked Apply.

But when I go back to the Printers control panel I don't see any
printer in there. It just says has the New Printer icon to create a
new printer. It should have created the printer I setup. And when I
try to print it said in the console: lpr: Error - no default
destination available. So apparently it is not setting it up :-(

I checked the log files and only thing I saw possibly relevant was in
/var/log/syslog:

Dec 31 01:18:29 ubuntu kernel: [4498844.439000] lp0: ECP mode
Dec 31 01:18:30 ubuntu kernel: [4498844.757000] lp0: ECP mode

Dec 31 01:18:36 ubuntu kernel: [4498851.283000] lp0: ECP mode

I verified I have the correct drivers installed:

ubu...@ubuntu:~$ dpkg -l|grep hplip
ii  hplip  0.9.7-4ubuntu1 HP Linux
Printing and Imaging System (HPLIP)
ii  hplip-data 0.9.7-4ubuntu1 HP Linux

Is there a way I can manually force it to try and print using the
drivers? It should work, I followed all the steps yet it never creates
an entry for my printer :-( What is wrong?

 You would need to use the root user, and the root password.  Go to

printer setup

2007-06-05 Thread bobsetch

It's only me again! I am taking heart in the fact that I'm learning but!!! 
There has to be something really stupid that I'm missing. Cups thinks it 
successfully printed test pages from cups and a file from the word processor. 
Where is the output going? Why doesn't it get to the printer?

 IIRC cups by default does not accept root for administration. 

Really?  Mine does.  When I open Common UNIX Printing System 1.2.7
page at http://localhost:631, it states quite clearly:

If you are asked for a username and password, enter your login username
and password or the root username and password.

Correct.  I did say IIRC--and could not find any backup when I went
back to check it later.   :)

Anyway, the lpadmin group bypasses any potential problems in using root
anyway, and he won't have to think twice about it later.

Do you see anything interesting in /var/log/cups/error_log?

What kind of printer is it (model, directly connected or on a network)?
Does the printer display a message, blink, beep, or otherwise try to
communicate with you?

printer setup

2007-06-04 Thread bobsetch

Back again. I finally have etch gnome up and running again but am still having 
problems with my hp printer. I've tried using gnome desktop to setup the 
printer and everything seems to be ok until I print the test page and nothing 
happens. When I looki at the que iI see status: job stopped.
 
I've tried cups but it asks for a user name and password but does not accept 
mine and I have to cancel out of cups. I assume that since I'm not on line this 
option will nt work.

I've also tried /usr.sbin/lpadmin -p deskjet -vdirect 
usb://hp/deskjet%203900?serialx... -m deskjet.ppd. I get lpadmin: unknown 
argument usb://hp/deskjet

I've spent many hours reading info from gmone, cups and debian and still find 
myself knocking my head against the wall. anyone know what I can do?

this option has nothing to do with whether you are on line or
not. Cups, on your local machine, provides a web interface for its
configuration. That's why you can access it through
localhost:631. localhost is the current machine you are sitting
at. The user and password your need would be 'root' and root's
password. Or you can add yourself to the lpadmin group

useradd your-user-id lpadmin

and then logout/login and then you will be able to modify the printer
as yourself instead of as root.


 
 I've also tried /usr.sbin/lpadmin -p deskjet -vdirect

hmmm... I've not tried this method, so can't speek to it, but if you
could provide the verbatim output that would be great. it might be a
quoting issue for the usb://... portion, try it with quotes around it.

can you provide the contents of the cups logs (/var/log/cups/*)

 
 I've spent many hours reading info from gmone, cups and debian and still find

This is a shot in the dark, but I've seen this issue several times. If
your printer configuration is setting the paper size to A4 and you're
printer is is actually US letter size, the job will stop, waiting for
the correct paper type.

You'd need to use one of the CUPS configuration tools (I prefer the
browser based method), select the printer configuration and verify the
paper size there.

You would need to use the root user, and the root password.  Go to
http://localhost:631, and, when asked, use root, and not your regular
user.

Other stuff you could try:  install the package printconf, and then, in
the terminal (or konsole, if using kde), as root, run the command
printconf.  This should set up your printer.

If no luck still, search synaptic for stuff for your printer.  There
are various HP drivers that can be found.  See descriptions for
the following packages:  hpijs, hpijs-ppds, hp-ppd, hpoj, and 
foomatic-filters-ppds (this one is a big file that includes drivers
for most printers that work on Linux -- you probably won't need this,
as the hp specific packages should work).  Whichever package
sounds like the right one for your brand of HP printer,
install (and if none of them are right, then just go for
foomatic-filters-ppds.  Afterword, try either cups via
http://localhost:631 again, or printconf, and you should have a working
printer.

When I looked at the CUPS log files earlier today, I did not have
debugging enabled, in the file /etc/cups/cupsd.conf. I changed the line
LogLevel warning to LogLevel debug as described in the site below,
and when I try to print there is much more information sent to the
error_log file.

http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/Database/CupsFAQ
How do I enable debugging? 
1. Edit the file /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
2. Change the line LogLevel to debug.
3. Restart cupsd.  killall -HUP cupsd

I have retried printing from OOo, with the same outcome of lines of
symbols. These are the log file entries;

Printer setup problem in Etch

2007-03-11 Thread Bob C

I am having a difficult time getting my printer to work on Etch with
CUPS 1.2.7. When I print a page from Openoffice the printer responds,
but prints a line of meaningless symbols. Another strange thing is that
When I try to print a test page from CUPS setup program at
http://localhost:631/, I just get a message Quota limit reached.

My printer is an HP Deskpro 500, and the computer has a Asus p5b main
board and Intel E6300 processor. 

The printer and wiring are fine, since I can print without problems on
the same computer when I boot into mandriva-2007, which I have also
installed on the harddrive. That distribution uses CUPS 1.2.4. and is
setup with HPDeskjet 500 Foomatic/pcl3 (recommended), on
parallel:/dev/lp0. 

These same settings do not work for me in Etch, nor do the other 3 types
of drivers I found in the CUPS setup program.

I'm working my way through this site, trying to identify the problem.
http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting

I am wondering if there is something obvious I am missing or doing wrong
here? I realize Etch is a testing version of Debian, so could there be
some sort of bug?

Thanks for your help.

There could always be some sort of bug.  What does it say in

I had this problem a while back, but for the life of me I can't remember 
what the fix was.  One thing you might try is HPLIP, if you're not using 
it already.

Search the Cups docs for Quota. I had this problem in Etch, after a
cups upgrade

Hi Roberto,

 There could always be some sort of bug.  What does it say in
 /var/log/cups/{access_log,error_log,page_log} when you try and print?
 
When I print a page from Openoffice I get this in the log files

c2d:/var/log/cups# tail -f error_log
(no messages)

c2d:/# tail -f /var/log/cups/access.log
localhost - - [11/Mar/2007:23:01:08 -0400] POST /printers/deskjet500
HTTP/1.1 200 11809 Print-Job successful-ok

c2d:/var/log/cups# tail -f page_log
(no messages)

When I try to print a test page from the CUPS program at
http://localhost:631

c2d:/var/log/cups# tail -f error_log
(no messages)

c2d:/# tail -f /var/log/cups/access.log

Hope this helps.

Just to be clear, printing from OOo works but the test page does not?

Thanks for the suggestion. I installed HPLIP and find that it doesn't
detect my HP Deskjet 500. 

When I ran HPLIP, I got the message No Installed HP Devices Found.

When I tried to install my printer the program does not detect it.

I am not sure what this means, could it be that the Deskjet 500 is too
old to be detected? 

Thanks,
