http://ubuntuforums.org – Hey everyone, TVSE-455XLCL printer is a Dot matrix 24 pin printer and it worked perfect in filter tvseraster. I used foomatic PPD for TVSE-455XLCL printer. when I go to http://localhost:631 and click on jobs. The error I get is : print eror: stopping job because the scheduler could not execute a filter and Printer State idle - File "/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip" has insecure permissions (0100777/uid=0/gid=0). Thanks in advance (Hardware)

Stories similar to [ubuntu] cups-insecure-filter

I installed fedora 11 on this machine about 3 weeks ago. My printer, an HP Photosmart C4200, worked fine out of the box.

But I discover today that I cannot print anything. Not even a test page using CUPS (http://localhost:631/printers/). If I try to print something, it sits in the queue, but does not get printed.

As usual getting a printer working is like pulling teeth.

I have a Minolta PagePro 1350W. I start cups use locahost:631 and Minolta-PagePro_1350W-min12xxw.ppd file on USB. Admin page reports:

Description: Minolta PagePro 1350W Location: Den Printer Driver: Minolta PagePro 1350W Foomatic/min12xxw (recommended)

Hi Everyone,I have a huge problem and I have problems to solve it :S...I've been used to install cups and hplip for my printer, then start cups (rc.d start cups) and go to the cups page at localhost, add printer.... But today, when I tried to print a file he fails saying ""/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstoraster failed"...

XUBUNTU 12.10 I have a problem with my Lexmark Interact S605. I installed it using the DEBs from lexmark.com, but I'm having the cups-insecure-filter problem. On my dad's laptop I didn't have this problem.

Can't print with Lexmark X2500 3 years 23 weeks ago

I just installed OpenSuse on my machine which had Windows. Everything works except my printer/scanner. I don't really need the scanner, but I absolutely must be able to print. It's a Lexmark x2500. OpenPrinting.org suggests using the pbm2l2030 filter. I've set this up with the printer configuration in Yast, and I have to manually select the driver.

suspicious lines in the log files:     error_log.1Returning HTTP Forbidden for CUPS-Get-Devices {no URI} from localhost[CGI] CUPS-Get-Devices request failed with status 401: Forbidden     error_log.2[CGI] Missing NickName and ModelName in /usr/share/cups/model/foomatic-db-ppds/Brother/BR5070DN.ppd.gz![cups-driverd] Bad driver information file "/usr/share/cups/mod

Printing hell - OpenSuSE 11.2 3 years 28 weeks ago

Had no printing problems with 11.1 but upgraded to 11.2 and now have no printer. Have tried installing via usb and lpt. Keep getting "foomatic-rip failed" msg. Yast shows it as installed and waiting for jobs, but can't even print a test page.

Troubleshooting info as follows:

Page 1 (Scheduler not running?): {'cups_connection_failure': False}

I am running 9.04 x64 on a Dell Inspiron 1720. My local (USB) printer is a Brother HL-5140 using the driver "Brother HL-5140 Foomatic/hl1250".

My localhost printer always prints PDF files 2-up. If I tell acroread to print 2-up, I get 4 pages per letter-sized sheet.

Hi,

After following suggestions on other forums about downloading drivers from Canon Asia and then converting them from rpm to deb etc. I've got to the stage of installing my MP600 only to find it won't print on either configuration (usb or cnij_usb:/dev/usb/lp0) despite my best efforts at editing printers.conf etc.

Anyone have any better luck?
