Printer daemon needs to listen on port 631 and firewall has to allow connections on that port. ss -lnt command returns the following line when cups is listening: LISTEN 0 128 *:631 *:* see more bellow > On 1/9/2015 9:41 AM, Gene Heskett wrote: >> Greetings; >> >> I've been screwing around, trying to make my printers work, and while I >> can wake them up, no paper comes out. >> >> The cups error_log: >> HL3170CDW: error while loading shared libraries: libpoppler.so.5: cannot >> open shared object file: No such file or directory >> >> Seems to be the show stopper. >> >> I've no clue where to get this dependency because the previous ubu >> install did not use it.

It returns a number of related package names on Kubuntu 14.04: libpoppler-cpp-dev - PDF rendering library -- development files (CPP interface) libpoppler-cpp0 - PDF rendering library (CPP shared library) libpoppler-dev - PDF rendering library -- development files ... among them. However, I have none of that installed on my system with working CUPS. I doubt you need it. apt-get search cups returns a number of packages, some of which might be needed in addition to what you already have to get your printer going. Have you tried CUPS setup with web browser http://localhost:631 to manage the printer? Try to use simple postscript driver if your printer model is not listed.
