Printer problem on Solaris 10 server
Hi everyone,

I am new here and I just want to ask for the expert advice from you guys about the problem/issue I am encountering with network printer defined on a Solaris 10 machine.

I have this printer named 'printerA' which I already added via printmgr utility. As an output, here is the configuration place on /etc/printers.conf

Legend:
Printer name = printerA
Server name = serverA

Code:
printerA:\
        :printer-uri-supported=ipp\://localhost/printers/printerA:\
        :bsdaddr=localhost,serverA,Solaris:\
        :description=Konica Minolta 750:

I am not that knowledgeable with Solris IPP protocol. Actually this is the first time I encounter such setup.

Upon trying to send a test print to the printer, it always shows errors and the print job always fails.

Here is the log shown on /var/lp/logs/requests:

Code:
= printerA-9050, uid 40123, gid 10016, size 10839, 27 April 2012  5:23:06 PM
x /usr/bin/cat
z printerA
C 1
D printerA
F /var/spool/lp/tmp/localhost/9050-1
O nobanner
P 20
T standard input
t postscript
U dly@serverA
s 0x0104

Upon checking the status codes legen on docs.oracle site. there is no equivalent description from the site.

I already removed and added the printer several times as well as restarting the following services:

svc:/application/print/server:default
svc:/application/print/rfc1179:default
svc:/application/print/ipp-listener:default

The /etc/hosts file already contains the IP address of the printer.

Another thing, the same printer is also configured on another server and it is working, the only difference is not configured on IPP protocol.

Does anyone know the meaning of the error code 0x0104 or anyone encountered similar problem?

Did I miss any step on adding the said printer?

Please advise, thank you very much

enable

enable(1)                                                          User Commands                                                         enable(1)

NAME

       enable, disable - enable/disable LP printers

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/bin/enable printer...

       /usr/bin/disable [-c | -W]  [ -r [reason]] printer...

DESCRIPTION

       The  enable  command  activates  printers,  enabling  them to print requests submitted by the lp command. enable must be run on the printer
       server.

       The disable command deactivates printers, disabling them from printing requests submitted by the lp command. By default, any requests  that
       are  currently  printing  on printer will be reprinted in their entirety either on printer or another member of the same class of printers.
       The disable command must be run on the print server.

       Use lpstat -p to check the status of printers.

       enable and disable only effect queueing on the print server's spooling system. Executing these commands from a client system will  have  no
       effect on the server.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported for use with disable:

       -c              Cancels  any requests that are currently printing on printer. This option cannot be used with the -W option. If the printer
                       is remote, the -c option will be silently ignored.

       -W              Waits until the request currently being printed is finished before disabling printer. This option cannot be used  with  the
                       -c option. If the printer is remote, the -W option will be silently ignored.

       -r [reason]     Assigns  a  reason  for  the  disabling  of  the  printer(s). This reason applies to all printers specified. This reason is
                       reported by lpstat -p. Enclose reason in quotes if it contains blanks. The default  reason  is  "unknown  reason"  for  the
                       existing printer, and "new printer" for a printer added to the system but not yet enabled.

OPERANDS

       The following operand is supported for both enable and disable:

       printer         The  name of the printer to be enabled or disabled. Specify printer using atomic name. See printers.conf(4) for information
                       regarding the naming conventions for atomic names.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0               Successful completion.

       non-zero        An error occurred.

FILES

       /var/spool/lp/*         LP print queue.
