Bug#841843: printer-driver-escpr: backend can't find PPD file]

2016-11-03 Thread Matteo Croce 
I've tried this:

root@apu:/tmp# lpadmin -p newq -v
'usb://EPSON/WF-2530%20Series?serial=514B34593134343081=1'
-E -m 
escpr:0/cups/model/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr/Epson-WF-100_Series-epson-escpr-en.ppd
root@apu:/tmp# cupsfilter -p /etc/cups/ppd/newq.ppd -d newq -m
printer/foo -e /etc/nsswitch.conf > file.out 2> newq.log

INFO: pdftopdf (PID 2570) exited with no errors.

and I can actually print

It is! I copied it from the screen of my test machine to my main machine
and from habit automatically put a "/" after the ":". Well-spotted.

That is exactly what should happen.

Now would you repeat the lpadmin and cupsfilters commands but use the
PPD for your printer. (That's the only change to make). How does it go?

To actually print to the printer you will have to have -v as

 usb://EPSON/WF-2530%20Series?serial=514B34593134343081=1"

I got that from your error_log. You can check it with 'lpinfo -v'.

Can you print?

Cheers,

Brian.

Everything I said before was on the basis that you did not make that
symlink for doing the tests I described. If the log below was obtained
when the cupsfilter command was used after symlinking it is invalid.

Did the /usr/lib/cups/filter/epson-escpr-wrapper command get the symlink
made in /tmp without your altering the system? Please let me know if I
am not being clear on what to do.

Sounds like a different issue. Let's stick with this one for now.

I get this:

maybe the device name is wrong?

Matteo,

Any news on your tests?

Bug#841843: printer-driver-escpr: backend can't find PPD file]

2016-10-28 Thread Brian Potkin 
Many apologies, Matteo. Because I read bug reports in debian-printing I
inadvertently sent the mail below there and not to you or the bug.

I have tried everything I can think of to reproduce your issue on Jessie
and unstable but without success. One last try! There is probably some
repetition of what we have done before but I am not sure if I was as
clear as I could have been. If this does not work I am out of ideas.

Set up a new queue with a different PPD:

 lpadmin -p newq -v file:/dev/null -E -m 
escpr:/0/cups/model/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr/Epson-WF-100_Series-epson-escpr-en-ppd

Without any symlinking print to the queue in any way you choose and look
at the error log. Is "Cannot get option of PIPS" still there?

Alternatively:

 cupsfilter -p /etc/cups/ppd/newq.ppd -d newq -m printer/foo -e 
/etc/nsswitch.conf > file.out 2> newq.log

Does newq.log contain lines like this?

 gstoraster (PID n) exited with no errors.
 epson-escpr-wrapper (PID n) exited with no errors.

(Forget about the command

 /usr/lib/cups/filter/epson-escpr-wrapper 1 1 1 1 1 wf2530.ras > wf2530.data

and its strace output. Another mistake on my part. It worked because I
had made the symlink you suggested).

Cheers,

Brian.

Bug#841843: printer-driver-escpr: backend can't find PPD file

2016-10-26 Thread Matteo Croce 
Yes it prints.
But here it seems I have two separate issues:

1) can't print without symlinking
/etc/cups/ppd/usr/lib/cups/filter/epson-escpr-wrapper.ppd to
/etc/cups/ppd/Epson_2530.ppd
2) can't print from another cpus server and a raw queue.

This is indeed a step forward and a possible clue.

 cupsfilter -p /etc/cups/ppd/wf2530.ppd -m application/vnd.cups-raster 
/etc/nsswitch.conf > wf2530.ras 2>log

produces a raster file for me. I would expect it to do the same for you.

 /usr/lib/cups/filter/epson-escpr-wrapper 1 1 1 1 1 wf2530.ras > wf2530.data

produces a printer ready file from the raster file for me. From what you
relate in your initial mail, this is likely not to work for you and
wf2530.data will be empty.

Part of the strace log from running strace on the second command has

 
stat64("/etc/cups/ppd//usr/lib/cups/filter/epson-escpr-wrapper.ppd",{st_mode=S_IFREG|0644,
 st_size=50341, ...}) = 0
 access("/etc/cups/ppd//usr/lib/cups/filter/epson-escpr-wrapper.ppd", R_OK) = 0
 symlink("/etc/cups/ppd//usr/lib/cups/filter/epson-escpr-wrapper.ppd", 
"/tmp/5810d9a20db33") = 0
 open("/tmp/5810d9a20db33", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 4

It seems a PPD file of size 50341 has been found and accessed. A symlink
is made to it in /tmp. The link /tmp/5810d9a20db33 exists and points to
/etc/cups/ppd//usr/lib/cups/filter/epson-escpr-wrapper.ppd. Opening it
shows wf2530.ppd.

Does the issue come down to whether you are having a link made? And if
it is not made, why not?

In another mail I wrote

 cupsfilter -p /etc/cups/ppd/Epson_2530.ppd -m printer/foo -e 
/etc/nsswitch.conf > file.out 2> wf2530.log

It is incorrect. This is better (and works for me):

 cupsfilter -p /etc/cups/ppd/Epson_2530.ppd -d Epson_2530 -m printer/foo -e 
/etc/nsswitch.conf > file.out 2> wf2530.log

Cheers,

Brian.

There is nothing here for us. It works with my setup; it is not

I get the same error.
I managed to print with:

# mkdir -p /etc/cups/ppd/usr/lib/cups/filter
# ln -s /etc/cups/ppd/Epson_2530.ppd
/etc/cups/ppd/usr/lib/cups/filter/epson-escpr-wrapper.ppd
# lp -d Epson_2530 /etc/nsswitch.conf

I don't know whether you tried this but another request: please post

This is because the final filter did not complete.

Thanks. I get exactly the same as you. It shows the system being unable
to move on to the final filter, epson-escpr-wrapper. It also appears to
show Ghostscript not carrying out a conversion with the filter
gstoraster. I have observed the same behaviour on Jessie and with other
PPDs from the same package.

You error_log also backs up wf2530.log by showing epson-escpr-wrapper
reporting "Cannot get option of PIPS" and

  D [24/Oct/2016:19:38:57 +0200] [Job 90] PID 32749 
(/usr/lib/cups/filter/epson-escpr-wrapper) stopped with status 1.
  D [24/Oct/2016:19:39:01 +0200] [Job 90] PID 32747 
(/usr/lib/cups/filter/gstoraster) stopped with status 1.

Unfortuately, my error_log show nothing of this. There is no mention of
PIPS and epson-escpr-wrapper and gstoraster complete successfully. I
have no explanation for this difference.

My print queue was set up (all on one line) with

  lpadmin -p wf2530 -v file:/home/brian/wf2530 -E 
-m 
escpr:/0/cups/model/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr/Epsom-WF-2530_Series-epson-escpr-en-ppd

and I printed with

  lp -d wf2530 /etc/nsswitch.conf

You could try this to see whether it gets printing going for you.

Cheers,

Brian.

Thank you for your detailed report, Matteo.

Please enable debug logging on the server and obtain an error_log for a
job to post here. The printing section of the wiki should help you with
this.

Would you also run the command (as root is less hassle):

cupsfilter -p /etc/cups/ppd/Epson_2530.ppd -m printer/foo -e /etc/nsswitch.conf 
> file.out 2> wf2530.log

and post wf2530.log. Check that file.out exists and is identified as
"data".

Regards,

Brian.

Package: printer-driver-escpr

Dear Maintainer,

I have cups installed on a headless system, but can't print anything.
I ran strace on what the backend does, and it's doing:
