Dear cups and freebsd friends,
I'm trying to setup CUPS on FreeBSD 10. I managed to install the software
and I managed to make the printer available to the OS via /dev/ulpt0:
from messages:
<snip>
...
Jun 8 17:16:13 donald kernel: ugen1.2: <Brother> at usbus1
Jun 8 17:16:13 donald kernel: ulpt0: <Brother HL-4150CDN series, class 0/0, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 1> on usbus1
Jun 8 17:16:13 donald kernel: ulpt0: using bi-directional mode
Jun 8 17:16:13 donald kernel: ulpt0: offline
...
</snip>
from ll /dev/ulpt0
crw-rw---- 1 root cups - 0x65 Jun 8 17:16 /dev/ulpt0
If I executed the following command:
echo 'true' > /dev/ulpt0
then the printer reacts and shows that data is transferred to the printer.
However, if I try to add the printer to CUPS via the web-interface, then
the printer is not detectable. I would expect the printer to be found after
searching. I can find an error message in error_log:
<snip>
...
E [08/Jun/2014:17:37:53 +0200] [Client 15] Invalid peer credentials for "root" - got 8, expected 0!
...
</snip>
I'm not sure if this is related to the fact that the printer cannot be
detected.
If I add the printer manually to the printer.conf file:
</Printer>
<Printer BHL4150CDN_2>
UUID urn:uuid:de11cfc5-3cbd-361e-5750-8b0e3f0ff4ad
AuthInfoRequired none
Info Brother HL-4150CDN series
Location attic
MakeModel Brother HL-4150CDN series CUPS
DeviceURI usb:/dev/ulpt0
State Idle
StateTime 1402241099
Type 8392780
Accepting Yes
Shared No
JobSheets none none
QuotaPeriod 0
PageLimit 0
KLimit 0
OpPolicy default
ErrorPolicy stop-printer
</Printer>
then I still cannot print to the printer.
Does anyone has a clue what is going on? Or how can I debug this problem?
