[Bug 1828434] Re: Unable to print after libgs 9.26 installed
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1828401 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1828401 Attempted the following suggested procedures, without success. /var/log/apt/history.log sudo apt reinstall libgs9-common Reinstall: libgs9-common:amd64 (9.27~dfsg-2+deb10u4) sudo apt reinstall hpijs-ppds printer-driver-hpijs Reinstall: hpijs-ppds:amd64 (3.18.12+dfsg0-2), printer-driver-hpijs:amd64 (3.18.12+dfsg0-2) On the chance that the "Filters failed" issue involved the PDF viewer Evince, I installed the PDF Viewer browser extension in Chromium, enabled local file access per instructions, and I am now able to print selected PDF pages without error. Interestingly, Evince continues to fail filtered print jobs, but now without returning an error message. The cups error log appears to mark the failed jobs as "completed" now. My point here is that a potential workaround for this complex issue may be to try using an alternate PDF viewer. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1828434 Title: Unable to print after libgs 9.26 installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ghostscript/+bug/1828434/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1828401 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1828401 While the last post was in 05/2019, this Ubuntu page on launchpad is still relevant for Debian users, as conservative Debian is several versions behind most distros. I am encountering this compatibility issue between cups-filters 1.21.6-5 amd64 and ghostscript 9.27~dfsg-2+deb10u4 amd64 since 11/2020, i.e., since GS was upgraded (possibly a regression error, since 1.21 was supposed to have fixed a previous 'filters failed' error.)

Some clarification. I'm using ubuntu 18.04 with an HP Laserjet 500 MFP 570dn... two servers, two of the same printer, and the same issue. It appears to have occured after the following unattended upgrade: Upgrade: libgs9:amd64 (9.26~dfsg+0-0ubuntu0.18.04.8, 9.26~dfsg+0-0ubuntu0.18.04.9), ghostscript:amd64 (9.26~dfsg+0-0ubuntu0.18.04.8, 9.26~dfsg+0-0ubuntu0.18.04.9), ghostscript-x:amd64 (9.26~dfsg+0-0ubuntu0.18.04.8, 9.26~dfsg+0-0ubuntu0.18.04.9), libgs9-common:amd64 (9.26~dfsg+0-0ubuntu0.18.04.8, 9.26~dfsg+0-0ubuntu0.18.04.9) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1828434 Title: Unable to print after libgs 9.26 installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ghostscript/+bug/1828434/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
