I have attached an example CUPS log to this comment to demonstrate the problem.
Looking at the source more closely, it appears that the initial test for Validate-Job succeeds, but actually using it before printing fails. One very quick way to test this would be to find the line "while(!job_canceled && validate_job)" (1229 upstream), and simply put "validate_job = 0" on the line above this. That should skip the attempt to use Validate-Job. Longer term, this might have to become a configurable option, either globally or per IPP printer. ** Attachment added: "Gzipped CUPS error log (debug-level), showing a failing print attempt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/881843/+attachment/2573243/+files/cupserrorlog.txt.gz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/881843 Title: CUPS IPP print to Novell servers error since 11.10 upgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/881843/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
