Hi, I have a Brother HL-2035 printer which worked perfectly on Tumbleweed with the ppd driver but now it no longer works. I have tried it on Debian and it does work with the ppd driver. The driver I use is this one:
Printer: Brother HL-2035 | OpenPrinting - The Linux Foundation
Have there been any changes in Tumbleweed with print management?
Regards
What is the error? What does not work exactly? CUPS error log?
Without informations it is hard to help…
I add the printer, cups adds it but the jobs stay on hold, they don’t print.
How can I see the CUPS logs?
Thanks
Is cups-filters installed:
rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip
cups-filters-1.28.17-lp156.151.1.x86_64
Can you show the output of
zypper se -s cups-filt*
Hello, I am returning this information:
manu@opensuse:~> LANG=C rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip
error: file /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip: No such file or directory
So install cups-filters:
as root:
zypper in -f cups-filters
and restart cups:
systemctl restart cups.service
I get a zypper dependency conflict
manu@opensuse:~> LANG=C sudo zypper in -f cups-filters
