I'll try, thanks.
As of now the Connection reset error hasn't happened since several days.

In the meantime this morning I tried creating another printer in Cups using ipp backend instead of socket, also assigning a ppd taken from Kyocera website which seems more specific to this model than the one I was using before.

If this is the problem and it's detected by Cups, why isn't the job retried?


thanks again
