print jobs and queues and provides network printing using the standard Internet Printing cups print server Protocol (IPP), while offering support for a very large range of printers, from dot-matrix to laser and many in ubuntu install cups between. CUPS also supports PostScript Printer Description (PPD) and auto-detection of network printers, and features a simple web-based configuration and administration tool.

your Ubuntu computer, simply use sudo with the apt command and give the packages to install as the first parameter. A complete CUPS install has many package dependencies, but they may all be specified on the same command line. Enter the following at a terminal prompt to install CUPS: sudo apt install cups Upon authenticating with your user password, the packages should be

downloaded and installed without error. Upon the conclusion of installation, the CUPS server will be started automatically. For troubleshooting purposes, you can access CUPS server errors via the error log file at: /var/log/cups/error_log. If the error log does not show enough information to troubleshoot any problems you encounter, the verbosity of the CUPS log can be increased by changing the LogLevel directive in the configuration file (discussed below) to "debug" or even "debug2", which logs everything, from the default of "info". If you make this change, remember to change it back once you've solved your problem, to prevent the log file from becoming overly large. Configuration The Common UNIX Printing System server's behavior is configured through the directives contained in the file /etc/cups/cupsd.conf. The CUPS configuration file follows the same syntax as the primary configuration file for the Apache HTTP server, so users familiar with editing Apache's configuration file should feel at ease when editing the CUPS configuration file. Some examples of settings you may wish to change initially will be presented here. Prior to editing the configuration file, you should make a copy of the original file and

There are drivers for the printer on the Brother error printing website. I downloaded and installed them as the directions explained. I can connect to my printer via IP address, it loads (seemingly) the right driver but whenever I print nothing happens... the CUPS error_log shows this error...Returning IPP client-error-document-format-not-supported for Print-Job (ipp://localhost/printers/MFC-J270W) from localhostDoes anyone know how to fix this error? I am error printing via somewhat new to linux desktop experiences.I am runningCentOS Linux release 7.1.1503 (Core) Thank you!

When attempting to print using ipconfig > LPT2 for example, the following error is returned: Unable to complete the requested operation because of either a catastrophic media failure or a data structure corruption on the disk. The other printer works without issue. It is also possible to print a test page from the CUPS panel so it looks like the issue is somewhere in CUPS/Samba, however I'm not sure where to go from here. Any advice is appreciated. Update After simply adding the printer under a different name it is now working fine, so just a policy update and all stations will be back up and running. When I get time I'll grep through for any name specific config and find out what went wrong. linux printer samba cups share|improve this question edited Jan 7 '14 at 11:52 asked Jan 7 '14 at 10:24 Veyf 14 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 0 down vote accepted After adding the printer under a different name it is now working
