I have encountered exactly the same problem in 9.10. I have removed cups-pdf, reinstalled it, set the permissions variously to 755, 777, ... as recommended in other strands. The folder ~/PDF exists and has the correct permissions. Invariably the response to any attempt to print from Firefox to the PDF printer is "Stopping the job because the scheduler could not execute the backend".
The details of cups-pdf are: -rwsrwsrwx 1 root root 22036 2009-10-21 14:40 /usr/lib/cups/backend /cups-pdf >From past experience cups-pdf can be a complete pain to deal with in different distributions, but surely this should have been sorted out properly by now ! -- cups-pdf and cups-insecure-filter print error on cups 1.4.1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/472468 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
