Please help. If I cannot fix this printing problem, I will have to abandon Linux for the hated world of Windoze!!!
Two weeks ago, I no longer could send a document to either printer. I've got two printers connected, both of which used to work fine. One is a Canon S600 connected to a USB port. The other is a HP LJ 6MP connected through my local network. Both worked fine previously.
Whenever I try to print from a program (e.g., Firefox), the only printer available is the PostScript default. Previously, both printers were listed, with the HP as the default printer.
When I try to print a test page, I get this error:
lpr: error - unable to print file: server-error-service-unavailable
What's the output of:
$ lpstat -t $ /sbin/service cups status
