I think best is that you go through all applicable parts of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems
Especially I need - How is your printer connected (USB, network) - All info about the healthiness of the connection (see the USB and network connection sections) - The PPD file(s) of your print queues (in /etc/cups/ppd/) - Thew CUPS error_log (in debug mode) from an execution of a print job - Input files you tried to print without success The output of the command driverless (to see whether there are alternative approaches to use the printer) Please attach all logs, files, ... one by one, do not compress them and do not package them together (so one can navigate through everything of the bug report inside the browser). ** Changed in: cups (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to cups in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1891987 Title: epson stylus photo rx560 is detected, added, but when printing, task is ending up immediatelly with success Status in cups package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Tried with both manufacturer and gutenprint driver: 1. plug an epson stylus photo rx560 via usb 2. add the driver (manufacturer first, retried with gutenprint) autodetected our gtk ubuntu specific application. 3.
