The dumb user / OP here. Thanks !! Of course, I wouldn't be trying to use this other person's Mac (hm, his name is plastered all over an ubuntu forum, now...) to reach that printer if I could just print to the darned thing directly. Is there any chance this bug is also related to the fact that when I set it up via its IP address, selecting the right ppd file, etc, printing to it does not work (job sits forever in "processing")? Or should I bark up other bug/support trees for that?
yours, the only person in my building who can't print to any of the 15 printers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/851189 Title: There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'client-error-not- possible' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/system-config-printer/+bug/851189/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
