Whoa, isn't your '"var/log/cups" a directory, or at least it should be? Where is your error log for cups? It is usually a file named "error_log" in a directory name "/var/log/cups" The tail your gave us above looks like standard output from the access_log file that should be in the same "cups" directory. For some reason you printer is receiving this output as print jobs. Might want to check your config files in "/etc/cups" What version of cups and Linux are you running? J.
