You are using Kerberos? This could be a consequence of #663995. The original Red Hat report is at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?format=multiple&id=837602 I tested this conjecture after installing and setting up Kerberos. 1. Used your cupsd.conf with DefaultAuthType commented out so that a print queue could be created: lpadmin -p TEST-K -v file:/dev/null -m drv:///hpcups.drv/hp-business_inkjet_1200.ppd 2. Uncommented DefaultAuthType and restarted cups. 3. touch /usr/share/cups/ppd-updaters/* 4. root@cups-unstable:~# apt-get --reinstall install cups Reading package lists...
