Four filters are started - texttopdf, pdftopdf, gstoraster and hpcups. All complete successfully. The filtering system has done what it is designed to do. The implication is that the transport system to the printer or the printer itself is at fault. But the printer is known to print!

The output is from the DNS-SD broadcasts made by a CUPS server. This isn't quite what I meant by having the printer on the network. I assume the printer is USB-connected to the server. Strictly speaking, it is the server that is on the network, not the printer.

When you routinely ignore recommendations from those developing your system, then I find it all too likely that your system is too broken in too many surprising ways. Feel free to insist that ignoring recommendations works fine for you (others before you have insisted on that), just please mention explicitly that practice of yours when seeking help, so that those believing in the sanity of following recommendations can avoid getting frustrated figuring out which not-broken-by-another-definition breakage might have caused your issue. > Should I still go ahead and file a report?

I recommend to file a bugreport, which also means you get feedback from those maintaining the package. I recommend to file the issue against the package where you experienced it - hplip - it is easy later reassign as needed. It is nice, however, that you mention in the bugreport how you've been suggested this possible relationship with CUPS. > If yes, that would be a pity, since hplip has some features I find > useful, though not essential.

Share your concerns with those who can actually act on this: The Debian maintainers of the package you are concerned about: I.e. consider file a (low severity) bugreport against cups raising your concerns about weakened user experience. Phrase is constructively and friendly - if it is perceived as "whining" (regardless of whether that was your intention) then there's obviously a higher risk that the bugreport will be dismissed without proper reflection.

Yes, the two bugs filed today relates only to unstable, and your explicitly omitting details about suppressed recommended packages must mean that you have none of that.

I don't have hplip installed (which is a bit surprising, I had thought that I did), but this post brought to mind a changelog message I saw in a semi-recent upgrade.

I wonder whether this might therefore be the result of a change in cups, rather than in hplip. I haven't actually had occasion to try printing since that package upgrade, so I don't know whether it's produced any behavior change on my end. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.

HPLIP - upgrade to 3.20.0 and can no longer print.
Hello All, Is anybody else having issues with hplip 3.20.0? The upgrade resulted in me not being able to print anything. Jobs were, apparently, being sent to the printer (its display panel lit up, to indicate that there was something about to happen), but the jobs never completed and eventually timed out with a communication error. The installed version (3.19.12) hp-check report concludes thus; Missing Required Dependencies - error: 'cups' package is missing or 'cups' service is not running. error: 'libcups2' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libjpeg62-turbo-dev' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libcups2-dev' package is missing/incompatible error: 'cups-bsd' package is missing/incompatible error: 'cups-client' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libcupsimage2' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libcupsimage2-dev' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libusb-1.0.0-dev' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libsane-dev' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libsnmp-dev' package is missing/incompatible error: 'snmp' package is missing/incompatible error: 'python3-pyqt4' package is missing/incompatible error: 'gtk2-engines-pixbuf' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libtool' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libtool-bin' package is missing/incompatible Missing Optional Dependencies - error: 'avahi-utils' package is missing/incompatible error: 'python3-notify2' package is missing/incompatible error: 'python3-dbus.mainloop.qt' package is missing/incompatible and from 3.20.0; Missing Required Dependencies - error: 'cups' package is missing or 'cups' service is not running. error: 'libcups2' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libjpeg62-turbo-dev' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libcups2-dev' package is missing/incompatible error: 'cups-bsd' package is missing/incompatible error: 'cups-client' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libcupsimage2' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libcupsimage2-dev' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libusb-1.0.0-dev' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libsane-dev' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libsnmp-dev' package is missing/incompatible error: 'snmp' package is missing/incompatible error: 'python3-pyqt4' package is missing/incompatible error: 'gtk2-engines-pixbuf' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libtool' package is missing/incompatible error: 'libtool-bin' package is missing/incompatible Missing Optional Dependencies - error: 'avahi-utils' package is missing/incompatible error: 'python3-notify2' package is missing/incompatible error: 'python3-dbus.mainloop.qt' package is missing/incompatible IOW, they're identical.
