For your printer, try: the following from the cli as root:

- stop cupsd
- remove /var/spool/cups/d*
- remove /var/spool/cups/c*
- remove /var/spool/cups/tmp/*
- start cupsd

Hope it solves the problem.

Cheers,

Hello, hope this post is to the correct list and not to long.

Been using yoper for nearly two years.  Moved from 06 version to Blacksand
2.91.   Really enjoy seing konqueror load instantly on my 800mhz box, many
thanks to the developers!

Just finished doing a complete upgrade for the second time. Upgrade broke
Smart and the kernal upgrade didn't complete properly.  Kpackage still (from
other versions) asks for a password even when running in root, but fails to
accept it.  Cups did not install correctly, sometimes the driver list
disappears, and when you can choose a driver it complains that it can,t make
the tempory printer.

These messages appear:
"Unable to change printer properties. Error received from manager:
client-error-request-value-too-long"
and
"Unable to create tempory printer."
After the error messages a tmp printer appears on the printer list along side
the Canon.
Here is the content of the printcap file in /etc/
<
# This file was automatically generated by cupsd(8) from the
# /etc/cups/printers.conf file. All changes to this file
# will be lost.
Canon|CANON TURBOPRINT Canon_PIXMA_iP2200:rm=Yoper:rp=Canon:

tmpprinter_xkMH9TmP|CANON TURBOPRINT

Regarding rpm, the problem  was solved by deleting the dbs,
ie. /var/lib/rpm/__db.oo1 ,002 etc.    I am guessing, but I think Smart
stopped working after rpm was upgraded.  In bash typing smart --gui produces
this error (last line only)
>gobject.GError: Couldn't recognize the image file format for file
'/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/smart/interfaces/images/smart.png'<

The kernal problem was corrected by cleaning up lilo.conf.
root = rootfs created a error and the drive  wasn't specified.

Hope I haven't wasted onebodys time!  Could use some help with cups and
installing my Canon printer.  Allready contacted the turboprint people about
the problem.  They say that the errors I discribed only occur when cups is
not installed right.

Thanks agin and keepup the good work!
Best reagrds!
