Hi all,
a week ago my son turned of the power for my server, printer, modem etc. When I powered it back on CUPS wouldn't print.
It could no longer see my printer. After fiddling around I emerge the newest CUPS and did:
Code:

lpadmin -p DCP-115C -E -v file:/dev/usb/lp0 -P /usr/share/cups/model/brmfc210c_cups.ppd

And CUPS could se my printer and I can print test pages :D but nothing else... :(
That is - everything seems to be working, my Mac sends the document for printing to CUPS, I can se it arrive with tcpdump, it shows up as a job on the CUPS webpage and I get no errors in the log - but my printer doesn't even react.
The only thing I get in the errorlog is:
Code:

Check your /etc/cups/printers.conf file for stoped. I am not sure if that is the correct file in gentoo as I am at work now and connot check, but sometimes the printer state changes from idle (if not printing) to stopped or any other state that is not the norm. The following will tell you the state of the file.

Code:
cd /etc/cups
grep State *


You can change the state back to Idle and restart cups to fix this if needed.

Code:

printers.conf:State Idle
printers.conf:StateTime 1210274159

This is also what it says on the webinterface.
