Hi all ! I have a CUPS problem with a new FC2 machine that I have just introduced to an existing 192.168.1.* network. The printers actually live on 192.168.1.10 and all the other machines continue to see and use them quite happily. All the machines are fully up2date. The new machine has a temporary IP of 192.168.1.63 and can ping the printer host and be pinged from the printer host. Telnet ...10:631 works fine from the new machine. Printer jobs on ...63 go into the queue and silently disappear. The short format log says that the backend process terminated with status 1, and suggests LogLevel=debug. However, that doesn't give me any clue as to what is happening. Here is the CUPS log file - can anyone help me ? Jonathan +++ D [15/Sep/2004:18:03:58 +0100] print_job: auto-typing file...
