.ppd Files [CUPS]

Hello,

Using Fedora 19 (Gnome)

I am unable to print on my Printer : Brother DCP-J925DW

I have followed these intructions on installing the printer driver : http://welcome.solutions.brother.com...ion_prn1a.html

The drivers needed are installed :

[root@jonashp Jonas]# rpm -qa | grep -e cups -e lpr
bluez-cups-4.101-9.fc19.x86_64
cups-filesystem-1.6.4-2.fc19.noarch
cups-filters-1.0.40-4.fc19.x86_64
python-cups-1.9.63-4.fc19.x86_64
cups-libs-1.6.4-2.fc19.x86_64
cups-pk-helper-0.2.4-2.fc19.x86_64
cups-1.6.4-2.fc19.x86_64
gutenprint-cups-5.2.9-11.fc19.x86_64
dcpj925dwlpr-3.0.1-1.i386
cups-filters-libs-1.0.40-4.fc19.x86_64
dcpj925dwcupswrapper-3.0.0-1.i386


But when I try to print a pdf document or a test page via cups website (http://localhost:631/printers) nothing happens.

I tried with network :

Description: DCP-J925DW
Location:
Driver: Brother DCP-J925DW CUPS (color, 2-sided printing)
Connection: lpd://192.168.1.110/binary_p1
Defaults: job-sheets=none, none media=iso_a4_210x297mm sides=one-sided


Status according to CUPS : DCP-J925DW (Idle, Accepting Jobs, Not Shared)


I have tried with usb and let Fedora detect and auto-install the printer : printing does not work.


What else can I try ?

I am trying to reprint pages from 16th feb via local host cups - it does not give me an option to reprint from cups page.
I sent a command via iMac terminal and it came back with answer
No files to print.??? Can anyone help I need to reprint these pages!!!!!
Thanks

Arch linux, lxdm/lxde, recent installation, feeling I must be doing something stupid, would be glad to be guided!

I have a Brother HL-2030 printer connected to a Raspberry Pi as a print server, CUPS setup, with sharing turned on. Other machines in the household, and indeed other OS's on the machine I'm writing on, print trouble-free to this printer.

On *this* desktop machine, (with libcups installed,) other programs print trouble-free. Firefox, Thunderbird, geany and evince all detect the presence of the network printer, and work as expected.

It's just Libreoffice that does not. This is true both of libreoffice-fresh and libreoffice-still, and it is true for all the components (write, draw, calc etc).

Libreoffice *does* find the network printer from other OS's that I play with; I have Puppy and Mint on the same machine, but those installs of Libreoffice are obviously different/earlier versions (nor do I feel like upgrading them in the circumstances!)

In this context, though, the Libreoffice "File>Printer settings..." menu offers me only a "Generic Printer" (whose properties and options I can edit). If I ask Libreoffice to print to this generic printer, it reports no failure, but that task just seems to disappear into thin air.

On the Pi server, /var/log/cups/ offers

Code:

I really think I must be doing something very stupid and newbie-ish!

Is it possible to configure CUPS without a GUI?
If so would I have to do it remotely somehow?
If there isn't, what would you recommend with adding a printer without the web interface that CUPS has.

What I have here is a Dell Optiplex GX620 (stock) with a new install of Xubuntu as of May 18. It works fine except that I am having trouble printing.
The printer is an HP Deskjet 832c hooked to a Linksys BEFW11P1. The Linksys box is an old internet router/firewall/wi-fi/printserver. I am using it as a network printserver with all the other functions disabled. It's a strange setup for sure. But, over there I have another computer running Lucid Puppy 5.3.2 and it prints just fine.
This machine running Xubuntu only will print the simplest of documents. The printer setup will print a test page, Text files will print, AbiWord files will print, PDF files and HTML pages displayed in Firefox do not print.
I have been taking some stabs at trying to fix this problem by changing some settings. but no joy.
Has anyone seen an issue like this? Any pointers/ideas on where to actually look for the problem.
It seems to me that Xubuntu does not use CUPS to manage it's printers? True? Would installing CUPS be a good idea?
Thanks

Hi guys,
.
For no apparent actions from me, hidden folders and files show
in my /user/home directory, they are as follows:-

folders:
.adobe .cache .config .cups .filezilla .gimp-2.8 .gnupg .gphoto .gstreamer-0.10 .icedtea .java .local .macromedia .mozilla .pki .thumbnails

Files:
.bash_history .bashrc .esd_auth .ICEauthority

In my / directory
File: ./readahead

Seeking help to verify the above folder and files are not from a harmful source or application?

If they do not post any thread to the system, how can I conceal
these folders and files, so that they don't show up any more in
my home and / directory ?

Many thanks.

I am running Linux Fedora 20. I have tried several times to download drivers; the last message I received said "There was an error during the cups operation: 'client-error-document-format-not-supported'. I'm totally confused now and do not know what to do next. I need help please. I think I should start from scratch.

Hello,

I have cups 1.7 set up. And have a printer LaserJet P1606DN configured. But with one user, every morning the first printing gets errror "Unable to write print data: Broken pipe". After that printing works fine. Printer is set with maximum sleep time "after 1 hour".

Any ideas, what to check?

Hey guys, I got samba working and I am able to access my files, however I am now trying to learn security with it. i am pretty much trying to allow certain groups access certain files. if you look at samba group you can see that I have @sambausers group to access sambagroup directory.

I have a user called sambatest01. the user can access "samba users only" but the user can access all of the other files as well. what is a correct set up on the other smb.conf to prevent users from accessing this? I cant seem to find a proper set up


[drivers]
path = /files/drivers
browseable = yes
read only = no
guest ok = no
guest only = no


[samba users only]
path = /files/sambagroup
browseable = yes
read only = no
guest ok = no
guest only = no
write list = @sambausers
valid users = @sambausers

Hi guys,
