Assuming you have deleted the three non-working queues,'lpstat -a' and s-c-p should show only M234. On dragon do systemctl stop cups-browsed Check that 'lpstat -l -e' still shows the printer as HP_LaserJet_MFP_M234sdw_C0FB67 * Now print: 'lp -d HP_LaserJet_MFP_M234sdw_C0FB67 /etc/nsswitch.conf'. * Immediately afterwards do 'lpstat -a'. What do you observe? * Run 'lpstat -a' a minute or so later. What do you observe? -- Brian.
