In only one case is it common, this machine. 4 others were, a month ago, perfectly working clients. > > check on the client that you have > /etc/cups/client.conf > check but that GO704 machine is the only client machine with a client.conf. > with option pointing to your cups server As in "ServerName 192.168.71.3:631"? > ServerName <your cups server> I have created that file, with that contents on the two older machines that didn't have it. And added that line to a third machine that did have a client.conf but no ServerName directive. The two machines that did not have that file, do have a cups.client.deb installed, but the deb does not have that file in the deb. So I'm still in the dark. I've no clue what got changed. The only clue I get from the servers logs was generated by the rpt4, client not authorized. That also generates a line in the access log, and it looks successfull. As theres two physical printers, I just tried the other printer, and elderly brother hl-2140, but its was rejected too, from the error_log: E [02/Nov/2019:11:30:27 -0400] [Client 148] Returning IPP client-error-not-authorized for Print-Job (ipp://192.168.71.3:631/printers/MFC-J6920DW) from 192.168.71.13 W [02/Nov/2019:13:42:58 -0400] Unexpected 'document-format' operation attribute in a Create-Job request.

Any cups stuff from this server, just yell. Thanks deloptes. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
