I could resolve this issue by upgrading the printer firmware to latest version 1.40. No idea, why Ubuntu 19.04 printed happily with older printer firmware, but as of Ubuntu 19.10 new printer firmware (can be installed through printer web interface) is needed.

It works like a charm under Ubuntu 19.04, but refuses to print since the upgrade to stock Ubuntu 19.10. I can reach it via ping and through its HTTP config page from the same computer. During my collection of relevant bug information I discovered the following error messages: 1. Some print filter was unable to grep /etc/cups/ppd/Brother_HL_L8260CDW_series.ppd This file was rw for user "root" and r for group "lp", but not accessible to others. I have made it world readable for testing purposes, but I still can't print. 2. I checked /var/log/syslog for app-armour errors but found none which would be related to cups and/or printing 3. After fixing the permission issue, the new error message is "File \'\' not found" and "Unable to add document to print job.", both of which are too cryptic for me to dig further into this by myself. Attached to this bug report I send the following pieces of information: - output from "/usr/lib/cups/backend/snmp 10.0.0.14" (snmp.txt) - output from "lpinfo -v" (lpinfo.txt) - output from "avahi-browse -a -v -t -r" and "avahi-browse -a -v -c -r" (avahi.txt) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 19.10 Package: cups 2.2.12-2ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.3.0-19.20-generic 5.3.1 Uname: Linux 5.3.0-19-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 CupsErrorLog: E [28/Oct/2019:10:40:04 +0100] [Job 112] File \'\' not found E [28/Oct/2019:10:40:12 +0100] [Job 112] Unable to add document to print job.
