I have an HP Color Laserjet CP1215 printer attached to a Jessie server via
USB. I'm trying to print to it from Stretch workstation. This has been
failing for a long time now. It's not a new problem. I've tried removing the
printer and re-finding it many times without success.
We presume the re-finding is done via the CUPS web interface or something
similar. Is cups-browsed running on the client?

  systemctl status cups-browsed

Yes, I used the web interface to find the printer. And yes cups-browsed is running on the workstation.


I'm using the HP Color LaserJet CP1215 Foomatic/foo2hp (recommended) driver
on both the server and my workstation. However when I try printing anything
from the workstation, it fails with a "Filter failed" message. The message
appears on the CUPS Jobs page on both the workstation and server.

I can print directly from the server (e.g. test page using the CUPS Printers
page or lp from the command line) but not from my workstation.

I can print to another printer (Samsung C410) attached to the server, also
by USB, using the same protocol (dnssd:) and it works. The major difference
is that the it's using the Samsung C410 Series (color) driver.

The cups error log on the server isn't helpful. The first message that it
shows for a failing job is:

E [02/Jun/2017:14:17:27 -0400] [Job 2241] Job stopped due to filter errors;
please consult the error_log file for details.
Unfortunately, the code that reports the terminating state of the job
does not have the name of the process that failed, which gets logged
separately.

Further down it shows these interesting messages:

Any ideas?
The Printing section on the wiki deals with "Double Filtering". It might
help.
