cups, can't print test page or whatever [solved]

marties · 2012-03-10 10:43:16

Hi,

i dont know exactly since when but my printer went on strike !

cups recognize it as ip2200 canon, when i print a test page (or a document) it never reache the printer while everything seems ok, nothing in the queue (as if it was ok) and no errors.

nothing in the logs

this printer works ok under ubuntu so this has to be with cups ?

pacman -Syu ok

Any clue ?

I've encountered several cases where a printer worked fine, but the test page printed nothing.
Try printing a text-file, like /etc/rc.conf to see if the printer responds.

the whole cups is broken,

at first i tried to print my documents it's facing that bug that i've decided to also try test page with no result.

If you are confident that that is it simply uninstall, get rid of all remaining config files (if any) and reinstall.

thanks but i already tried this but nothing changes.

That would imply that cups is not broken. What driver are you using? Have you checked localhost:631 in your browser? Have you checked the AUR?

Soooo many questions...

the web interface is working and nothing seems wrong there.

No recent messages on AUR about a problem on this driver.

I'm on a i686 distrib, module usblp is blacklisted

Hello,

after Enable full debugging information with
# cupsctl LogLevel=debug2

i noticed an error loading libtiff.so.3 library
libtiff.so.5 is installed, so i made a symlink to it

# ln -s /usr/lib/libtiff.so.5 /usr/lib/libtiff.so.3

don't forget to disable logging
# cupsctl --no-debug-logging
