You were right. I wasn't sending anything.
When I looked at the print queue in the GUI, the queue had stopped. I right-clicked on the job and selected 'reprint' and the job completed.
Then when I checked, the file had been created at:
/tmp/systemd-private-50d346fc75b8442ba768bceb72f73085-cups.service-qiUhzv/tmp/foo
[root at centos7-001 ~]# ls -lh /tmp/systemd-private-50d346fc75b8442ba768bceb72f73085-cups.service-nZYIXk/tmp/foo
-rw------- 1 root root 13K 9月 14 13:39 /tmp/systemd-private-50d346fc75b8442ba768bceb72f73085-cups.service-nZYIXk/tmp/foo
Then I sent the file to my printer:
lpr -P 11f1 -o raw /tmp/systemd-private-50d346fc75b8442ba768bceb72f73085-cups.service-2PcX8m/tmp/foo
After solving another authentication problem, the file was sent but nothing at all at the printer, although it went through 11f1, which previously managed to send something albeit a 0 page file, to the printer.
I'll start looking at the error log now to see what I can find.
Thanks
ian
