Yes, but it looked cups couldn't find it. $ LANG=C ls -l /usr/lib/cups/driver/fujixerox -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 9948 Dec 12 2016 /usr/lib/cups/driver/fujixerox > Atsuhito, let's stick with testing using cups 2.2.5-2.

Wireless network?). But I know it is something like "socket://id numbers" (For security reason, I stopped to open WSD and Bonjour port of the printer.) > cupsfilter -p /etc/cups/ppd/fuji.ppd -m printer/foo -e --list-filters > /etc/nsswitch > > Or use any other text or image file or a PDF instead of nsswitch. If It looked okay perhaps $ LANG=C sudo cupsfilter -p /etc/cups/ppd/fuji.ppd -m printer/foo -e --list-filters /etc/nsswitch cupsfilter: File "/usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftopjlfx" permissions OK (040755/uid=0/gid=0). cupsfilter: File "/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstopdffx" permissions OK (040755/uid=0/gid=0). cupsfilter: File "/usr/lib/cups/filter/commandtops" permissions OK (040755/uid=0/gid=0). cupsfilter: Unable to determine MIME type of "/etc/nsswitch".

Thanks for your valuable help and advice. I don't know why web interface didn't work correctly (for me?) and there is really no problem with cups 2.2.5 but, at least, my problem is fixed in fact now.

This is usually an indication that cups cannot find that PPD. But it should be installed in /usr/libcups/driver by printer-driver-fujixerox as fujixerox with a datestamp of Dec 11 2016.

I assume the printer is connected by USB. Fing its URI with 'lpinfo -v'. It begins with "usb://". Now locate the PPD with 'lpinfo -m | grep fujixerox' Then set up the printer with lpadmin -p fuji -v usb://. -E -m fujixerox:/0/cups/model..ppd (Replace . with what you get from the two lpinfo commands). Do cupsfilter -p /etc/cups/ppd/fuji.ppd -m printer/foo -e --list-filters /etc/nsswitch Or use any other text or image file or a PDF instead of nsswitch. If that is without error, try printing with lp -d fuji /etc/nsswitch -- Brian.

I did reinstall cups-daemon and cups-core-drivers (2.2.5-2), then removed (purged in fact) fxlinuxprint and then installed printer-driver-fujixerox. But when I try to add printer CP310 it failed because cups claimed "can't copy PPD file". So I removed printer-driver-fujixerox then installed fxlinuxprint. Then cups added a printer CP310 but its printer driver was show as "Local Raw Printer" wrongly. But if I downgraded cups to 2.2.4-7, then cups can add a printer CP310 and its printer driver is correctly "FX Printer Driver for Linux". Further, under this situation, the command cupsfilter -p /etc/cups/ppd/CP310.ppd -m printer/CP310 -e /etc/nsswitch 2>log.stretch produced a line: cupsfilter: Unable to determine MIME type of "/etc/nsswitch". so I doubt this is any problem. I can print a test file with CP310 (under cups 2.2.4-7). It looks to me that cups 2.2.5 has some regression. Thanks for your help and effort. Best regards, 2017-10-30(Mon) -- ** Atsuhito Kohda Math.

OK, but the printer CP310 and unstable Debian are in my office so please wait until next monday. Thanks for your kind reply and investigation. Best Regards, 2017-10-27(Fri) -- ** Atsuhito Kohda Math.

For stretch: cupsfilter: Unable to determine MIME type of "/etc/nsswitch". There is something wrong with your CUPS installation (or the file itself). I've never seen this in normal operation. It indicates that a simple text file will not be printed. Try to rectify this with apt-get --reinstall install cups-daemon apt-get --reinstall install cups-core-drivers to install the package versions of mime.types and mime.convs in /usr/share/cups/mime. > > Attach log.stretch and log.unstable to your next mail to the bug > > report. > > I update cups 2.2.5-2 and set CP310 but it seems there is > no corresponding PPD in /etc/cups/ppd/ > > $ LANG=C ls -l /etc/cups/ppd/ > total 80 > -rw-r- 1 root lp 24814 Oct 17 08:59 CP310_dw.ppd > -rw-r- 1 root lp 24814 Oct 17 08:59 CP310_dw.ppd.O > -rw-r- 1 root lp 10713 Oct 13 06:52 ipsio.ppd > -rw-r- 1 root lp 10705 Jul 24 07:12 ipsio.ppd.O > > I guess CP310_dw is a PPD when I installed cups 2.2.4-7. > So I can't generate log.unstable and attatch only log.stretch. > If I misunderstand anything, please let me know. You could have used CP310_dw.ppd; the PPDs on stretch and unstable are identical. Remove the .deb you downloaded from fujixerox and install the package printer-driver-fujixerox from the Debian archives. It also comes from fujixerox but it puts files in the right places on the system. Set up the printer as before. This works for me to get a printable version of nsswitch. Cheers, Brian.

This printer: > > http://news.fujixerox.com/image_library/detail/_imgid_000316/ Yes, sorry for my inaccuracy. > What do you mean by "failed to recognize driver of CP310dm"? I got printer driver (fxlinuxprint_1.1.2-1_amd64.deb) from FujiXerox site; http://www.fujixerox.co.jp/download/eng/ (in fact, I accessed a Japanese page of it). It installed /usr/share/ppd/FujiXerox/fxlinuxprint.ppd.gz When I installed CP310 with cups (web interface), I selected PPD and a file fxlinuxprint.ppd.gz. But after installation, cups shows a printer driver of CP310 as "Local Raw Printer". And, of course, I can't print with CP310. > There is a PPD for your printer in /etc/cups/ppd.

I update cups 2.2.5-2 and set CP310 but it seems there is no corresponding PPD in /etc/cups/ppd/ $ LANG=C ls -l /etc/cups/ppd/ total 80 -rw-r- 1 root lp 24814 Oct 17 08:59 CP310_dw.ppd -rw-r- 1 root lp 24814 Oct 17 08:59 CP310_dw.ppd.O -rw-r- 1 root lp 10713 Oct 13 06:52 ipsio.ppd -rw-r- 1 root lp 10705 Jul 24 07:12 ipsio.ppd.O I guess CP310_dw is a PPD when I installed cups 2.2.4-7.

Package: cups Version: 2.2.5-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? After upgrading to 2.2.5, I can't set up a printer with cups because cups failed to recognize driver of CP310dm. CP310dm is a (japanese model,perhaps) printer of FujiXerox. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Downgrading to 2.2.4-7 fixed the problem. * What was the outcome of this action? * What outcome did you expect instead? I expect cups 2.2.5 should recognize CP310dm.
