I was refering to the command lp, as in Wuler:/home/wayne# lp -d HP710 zzz lp: unable to print file: server-error-service-unavailable but I get the same errors using lpr Wuler:/home/wayne# lpr -P HP710 zzz lpr: unable to print file: server-error-service-unavailable and Wuler:/home/wayne# cupsdoprint -P HP710C zzz server-error-service-unavailable No errors are picked up in the cups error log with max debugging set. > > > [Errors when printing] > > From the web-interface, can you print a test-page?
