I've been beating my head against the wall for over a month on this, and I hope someone who knows CUPS a bit better than I can tell where I am going wrong. I suspect I have an incorrect permission issue *somewhere*, but I have no idea where.
I have two very similar systems set up with FreeBSD and CUPS, with a HP Photosmart C4180 printer/scanner attached to the first (let's call it the server). This printer is shared on my local network. I can send print jobs to it fine from Windows 7 systems on the network, but all attempts to print from the second FreeBSD system (let's call it the client) fails. Printing to the printer from the server works fine, so I don't think there is anything wrong on the settings there. Sending it a test page from the CUPS web page on the client, it shows the status message “Processing Page 1”, and then a few seconds later: “Filter Failed”.
Here are the basic configuration details from the two systems:
Client System:
Server System:
After trying to send a test page to the printer from the client system, here is what I found in the client CUPS error log:
And the server CUPS error log shows:
I can see that /usr/local/libexec/cups/filter/hpcups failed on what appears to be a file open, although I can't find any more details. If anyone has encountered this before, your suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank You!
Jay
