Created attachment 235112 [details] Output from save_y2logs OpenSuse 11.0 final Installed from Installation DVD, latest updates from repository Arch: x86_64 Printer: HP LaserJet 5L on Micronet print server Desktop: kde4 (German) Overview: Since my new system does not have a parallel port any more I bought a simple print server to connect my parallel port HP LaserJet 5L directly to my home network. I'm trying to install with YaST my printer for direct-local-network printing. This worked perfectly for my old openSuSE 10.3 systems. However, it does not work on my new 64bit system with openSuSE 11.0. The Yast Printer-Configuration-Manager seems to work fine until I try to print a test page or to save the configuration. Then I get always a message window with the text: "cups(File) DoRequest error: client-error-bad-request". Printer does NOT get installed. Steps To Reproduce: - Click 'Printer' in YaST Control Center (i'm using kde4 desktop) - Select 'Pritners and Queues', click 'Add' - Select 'Network Printers' - Select 'Print directly to a network printer' - Select 'Direct TCP Port Printing' - In 'Hostname of Printer', I typed the IP address ( No local DNS right now). - Click 'Test Remote Socket Access' ==> Returns "The Print Server Is Accessible" ==> The print servers LCD lights up and displays "receiving data", as expected. - (click 'Next' again) - "Queue Name", filled in printer name and information. Then click 'Next'. - "Printer Queue Edit Dialog" - Filled in necessary information, i.e. printer model and driver option - (click 'Next' again) - printer appears as configured in the list on the main printer configuration panel - select the configured printer and click on "Print Test Page" ==> a window with the error message "cups(File) DoRequest error: client-error-bad-request" pos up. Nothing get printed. - (click on 'Finish') - Pop-up window "initialising cups server" - a few second later pop-up window with "cups(File) DoRequest error: client-error-bad-request" Printer gets not installed. I got the printer finally to work by brute force copying the /etc/cups directory from my old 10.3 system over /etc/cups on my new computer. However, the printers are not visible in YaST and cannot be administered there, e.g. e.g to change driver options.
