#243025 — cups problems in bullseye

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] — view raw

I have reconfigured one of the 3 copies cups discovered for ipp-Everywhere
getting this in the printer menu:


Description:Brother MFC-J6920DW duplex copy Location:coyote.coyote.den Driver:MFC-J6920DW - IPP Everywhere (color, 2-sided printing)
Connection:ipp://Brother%20MFC-J6920DW._ipp._tcp.local/ Defaults:job-sheets=none, none
media=na_letter_8.5x11in
sides=two-sided-long-edge

but when I goto the maintenance tab an try to print a test page, cups
does not accept me as user and my passwd that works for logins and
sudo on a rootless system. All I can do is cancel. This is a VERY OLD
problem I've been saddled with since at least wheezy. I assume from
the tcp.local above its trying to use the printers net address, not its
usb. Both are connected but the net connection is slower than the usb.
Or I should say that was on stretch. This is bullseye now.

The brother drivers, updated for bullseye are installed but don't work 
at all well. no duplex and about 15x slower than stretches install.

Andy, plz remove your PM when posting to debian-user, firefox makes
it very difficult to put the list address as the To: without starting a new,
blank msg. It puts the list in the Cc: box and will not copy/paste it 
to the To: box w/o stripping at the @.

Cheers, Gene

Let's try a driverless network solution. OK with you? Please give the
output of 'driverleess'.

What happens if you just delete the address from To: and leave the list 
address only in Cc:?

Kind regards,
Andrei

What's a PM, and where is it? (There are too many meanings for me
to guess which one applies here, even while examining Andy's posts.)

Cheers,
David.

My guess is personal mail. But who's Andy?

I think he's referring to me, since I was one of the first people to
respond to his CUPS questions (plus bonus conspiracy theories about
Apple), and his response came directly to my personal email not the
list.

As usual I struggled to understand what Gene is asking for but I
parsed it as something like, "I have no idea how to send email with
Firefox such that it goes only to the list, not to you directly, so
can you help me by not including your own email address?"

Which still makes very little sense to me, but this is nothing new.

As far as I can see no one needs to change how they are sending
email to this list, Gene just needs to learn how to work whatever
mail software he is using.

Cheers,
Andy

I thought I saw that Andrei responded to this post of Gene's, and
believed maybe Gene was referring to Andrei as "Andy" which is funny (or
not, maybe depending on whether you're Andrei or not) and kind of
American its easy-going and familiar geniality.

I'm on kmail now, Which does handle replys properly. But when using FF, in 
order to get the list included, you must reply-all, then clear the to: box in 
order to stop the automatic PM. More useless mouse work.

And I might add that I only made the apple comment after receiving bounce msgs 
3 times from attempting to post to @cups.org. Doing to the site that 
originated the bounce msgs, and finding that the cups mailing list was not 
listed there, and the fact that the lists going away had been announced on 
that list months ago, I posted the only theory I had left. If there actually 
still is a cups list, lay it on me. But it hasn't been yet.

Excellent! Your sig. is generally the most reliable, informative and
helpful item in postings :). It also upholds the inalienable rights

Hi Gene,

On Wed, Dec 15, 2021 at 06:58:34AM -0500, gene heskett wrote:

I've already asked once that you show us the exact text of those
bounces, so that we might determine where the problem lies.

> Doing to the site that originated the bounce msgs, and finding
> that the cups mailing list was not listed there,

I've already pointed out that the cups list does still appear to be
mentioned here:

    https://lists.cups.org/mailman/listinfo/cups

and that it last had traffic back in November, which doesn't seem
to be an unusual state of affairs for that list. You did confirm
that this was the list you meant.

So, its web interface and archives still exist. Whether it still
accepts email we do not know.

> the fact that the lists going away had been announced on 
> that list months ago,

Do you recall which month? Perhaps you could find that announcement
in the archives?

    https://lists.cups.org/pipermail/cups/

I had a quick glance and couldn't find it, but might have missed it.
I did some web searches but only get hits from this thread!
It would definitely help to know what has been announced.

> I posted the only theory I had left.

While you obviously could be correct in your claim that the cups
list at lists.cups.org has been decommissioned, you haven't actually
given us any way to verify that, and it's not for wont of asking.

> If there actually still is a cups list, lay it on me. But it
> hasn't been yet.

A strange assertion since you did already tell me that you were
talking about cups@cups.org and that you had now attempted to (re-?)
subscribe to it. Doesn't that make it your turn to clarify?

Thanks,
Andy
