Make sure the print queue isn't backed up by a bunch of failed print jobs. They don't just disappear on their own, you have to delete them from the queue.

From a command line, lprm ought to clear your print queue.

Hi, thanks, but up to now no solution. I cleared the print jobs, restarted opensuse, cleared again the print jobs to be sure, and yet the test page (from yast) is not printed. After logout and login, one improvement was that now I can change and save the configuration of cups from localhost:631. I marked the following itens: Show printers shared by other systems; Share printers connected to this system; Allow printing from the Internet; Allow remote administration; Save debugging information for troubleshooting. But yet I cannot print test pages.

Always sure you have proper access to the cups printing system by adding your user to the lp group. This will require that you logout/login for the change to take > effect.

I am unsure if with the above I am already a lp registred user or not. I tried to look for information on this, but my internet connection now is unstable. I just tried to print a test page from CUPS (localhost:631). And I received the error message : "Unable to open print file: No such file or directory". Below I am sending an extract of the new error log (extracted from localhost:631).

I did ask how they were connected. That's because, even with the information above, I can come up with a scenario where more than one printer is physically connected and its not a cups problem. For example, one is connected via the lp port and one is connected via a serial port. or USB port. Or network. So yes, the ** issue I suggested **, that of ** access control ** _could_ be the reason. So I ask again, how are these printers connected?

Ken Schneider - openSUSE said the following on 01/09/2013 02:02 PM:

And the pronter that Davi has working is a supported printer so one would guess that the print system is working.

I think you are so missing the point I'm trying to make about access. I have a working print system. But when I ran an update or installed a new package then suseconfig would run and the entry in the /etc/permissions I had chosen, and then reset crw-rw----+ 1 root lp 6, 0 xxxxxxxxxxx /dev/lp0 to crw-rw----+ 1 root root 6, 0 xxxxxxxxxxx /dev/lp0 and the print system stopped working ... for that printer. But it *was* working. (And oh, yes, if I rebooted!) Now I can imagine - I'm not saying it is, just that is its possible - that the OP in a similar situation. The port the 6128 is on is inaccessible to the CUPs system. Until the OP tells us how the two printers are connected we cannot discount this. And even so, there may be other issues ...

So there is your answer. Best guess is the printer is NOT supported.

I don't understand why you guys are so eager to give up, give up so easily. If this were me, I'd be testing the printer to make sure that it was accessible. I had a Brother which had parallel, usb and network ports. I tested it using all three, not because I had problems, but "just in case" at some future time I might need to change configuration. Testing on a parallel port or use is easy: cat a postscript file :-) With the network you need to determine the address and then use netcat. So Yast can't print a test page. Big deal; yast is the be all and end all. Work backwards from the printer. Check each step. Heck, vendors/suppliers have been known to ship defective or obsolete product. Get 'under the hood' and find out why the back end isn't sending the formatted file down the line. And yes, I've done this in the past and had to edit incorrect PPD files.

You're giving up too easily.

Send me a printer I can use to test with and I'll keep trying. Let me say it again, the printer is _not_ in any "supported" list. My best guess without having a printer to test with is an incorrect port number when connected by the network cable. But then the OP stated it was seen but would not print.

In the Xerox site there is no detailed information on the installation, but I just realized that inside the downloaded compressed file there is a readme file. I copied it just below this message. With this new information, I removed the drivers and proceed with the installation direct form cups (previously I used yast), as stated in the readme. Nevertheless, an issue appear inside cups: I cannot add a printer (step 2.2.2 in the readme file). I receive the message: "Unable to add printer: Forbidden" . I'm using cups 1.5.3. All other options I can change and save in cups (using root password), but I cannot add a printer.

Below I am sending the complete result of "tail -200 /var/log/cups/error_log" . The single relevant line I could found was E [10/Jan/2013:12:09:13 -0200] Returning HTTP Forbidden for CUPS-Get-Devices (no URI) from localhost I do not run vnc. Well, if this will get more troublesome, I will get this printer connected to a windows computer or a Ubuntu 32 bits (this one could use this xerox printer). Anyway, in spite of the difficulties with this printer, it would be nice to solve this issue with adding a printer via cups.

Thanks for your help! Now the printer is running in my opensuse 12.2 64 bits. Well, I still have to configure the scanner. I will give a break for now, latter I will start that. I simply had to follow the readme file and install the printer from cups, not from yast. But my cups had some problem (access control issue?) which was not allowing me to add a printer. The Brother printer I added from yast, hence I had not to face that cups issue. It is unclear to me what was exactly the problem to add a printer in cups, but it is now solved. I did some changes in the files cupsd.conf and group (with the help of Anton), but with no success at first; then I tried to install the same printer with a different driver from xerox from yast. After that, don't ask me why, I could add a printer in cups. Thanks, Davi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I simply enter the root password in the dialog box that appears in order to start yast. I`ve never used su to run yast (never thought that this could matter). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Right, so running cups under yast is different from when you started cups directly and logged in - according to the log file you send me and off-list confirmation - as 'davi'. -- Those who wish to seek out the cause of miracles, and to understand the things of nature as philosophers, and not to stare at them in astonishment like fools, are soon considered heretical and impious,and proclaimed as such by those whom the mob adores as the interpreters of nature and the gods.
