People,

I try and minimise printing and try and send electronic docs where possible but sometimes I am forced into producing paper copies. Because I use the printer so infrequently, I am not sure if this problem has started since upgrading from F25 to F26 (x86_64) or whether it was there even earlier (I usually update every version). CUPS printer info:

Device URI:

  lpd://192.168.1.4/

Make and Model:

  Brother HL-5250DN BR-Script3

Trying to print from LibreOffice - no data is sent and the Printer State shows:

  Idle - Filter failed

Printing the exported PDF with qpdfview works fine and the Printer State shows:

  Idle - Data file sent successfully.

So for every doc I end up having to export to PDF from LibreOffice and print from qpdfview . . which is tedious when the thing should be able to be printed directly. I have spent hours trying all the options (I thought it might be because I have an imbedded PNG for a signature) and Googling but haven't found a solution. I have deleted the printer driver and reinstalled it a number of times . .

I just found trying to print from Google Docs to the printer fails too . .

Any suggestions about further debugging?

Thanks,

Phil.
