As stated above, no symlinks in temp. the only thing I do get when i open a print dialog is an empty /tmp/systemd-cups.service- RANDOMLETTERS/tmp directory. This behavior started after upgrading from trusty to utopic, before I switched to systemd. /etc/cups/ppd is empty for me: $ ls -ltra /etc/cups/ppd total 8 drwxr-xr-x 2 root lp 4096 Sep 16 11:00 . drwxr-xr-x 5 root lp 4096 Oct 23 10:28 .. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1378438 Title: Printer dialog stuck on "Getting printer information..."

All please also check the permissions of the PPD files in /etc/cups/ppd/. They need to be world-readable. Do sudo chmod 644 /etc/cups/ppd/*.ppd to assure this. Does the problem dealt with in this bug (dialog hanging) go away?

I had (and have) no scp-dbus-service.py running per `ps -ef` output. trying to print from LibreOffice or okular doesn't show the network- discovered printer at all, only print to pdf/file options are available (with gtk3 / firefox print dialogs, initially only print to pdf/file is shown, then the network-discovered printer appears a few seconds later) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1378438 Title: Printer dialog stuck on "Getting printer information..."

[Bug 1378438] Re: Printer dialog stuck on "Getting printer information..."
Comment #7 is only valid if you get links created in /tmp. You have to both remove the executable bit from scp-dbus-service.py and kill the scp-dbus-service.py process in this case. If this is the case for you, does printing return to work normally after applying the workaround? The original description tells that printing works from Firefox and does not work from applications with GTK3 Print dialog. This looks like that something is wrong with the print dialog, as CUPS is able to print but the GTK3 print dialog does not give access to the printer. So please try to print from LibreOffice and/or from KDE applications (Okular, Digikam, ...).

the chmod -r did not fix the issue for me (original reporter). In addition, I don't see any ppd file links getting created in /tmp.

The /tmp getting quickly filled up with links to PPD files is treated in bug 1156398. A workaround for bug 1156398 is to deactivate the system-config-printer applet and/or the system-config-printer D-Bus service by removing the read bits from the appropriate files, for example: sudo chmod -r /usr/share/system-config-printer/scp-dbus-service.py Does this solve the problem for you? ** Changed in: cups (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1378438 Title: Printer dialog stuck on "Getting printer information..."
