IPP Printing Problem

I have a printer on the local network that I need to print to using ipp. The problem is, I can't. I can print to it using lpd and the directjet setups, but when I try to use ipp, it just says the "Network host is busy".
All that said, my fundamental issue is that I don't understand these printing protocols very well. What I have is an app that prints via ipp to an ip you provide. I have no idea what would cause ipp not to work so I don't know where to start. I can only assume the printer supports it, but I have no idea how to find out either. It is an HP laserjet P2015.
Any ideas on how I can wrap my head around this?

Assuming it's a JetDirect card/box that the printer is using to connect to the network, there are some decent instructions here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/225841 for checking if IPP is available or enabled.
CUPS setup for IPP is documented here : http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/network.html
That may be a good place to start for other reading.

IPP printing problems in lion

Hi,
I'm having problems printing through IPP to my HP LaserJet 1010 connected to a print server router linux based. If I connect the HP printer directly to my Mac, no problems printing, if I configure it using IPP to print in my print server router, I have the following errors in cups error_log:

It seems that it can get some printer attrs, but it isn't able to print the file.
It's important to point out that I configured a Windows Vista box to troubleshoot and printed a file without any problems.
I googled and searched in this community, for similar problems and I didn't find any success case. I've also tried out many workarrounds without success.
Best regards,

Thanks for your quick response.
Regarding queue name, in my case I think is correctly configured, because I can read it in the IPP request (Something like this - //ip_address:631/printers/PRINTERNAME) on log file, but I didn't paste all entries in this post due to its size.
I already suspected in backend ipp binary, because I found more people reporting similar issues with it and mostly because in Windows is working without any problem and in my cups error log I had this two entries that seems to me some kind a bug:
Backend returned status 7 (unknown)
printer-state-message="/usr/libexec/cups/backend/ipp failed"
Seems that ipp is returning an unknown value for some reason.
I have tried to downgrade ipp binary, but I didn't find a previous version that works correctly in my environment.
unfortunately, my router only supports ipp, In past I have tried with success LPR but with other router and other a HP printer through parallel port.
Best regards,

Problems printing to http printer via IPP printing

I have a US Robotics Router with a print server on it that is called
Printer location: http://192.168.2.1:1631/printers/My_Printer
I have tried adding this printer using IP>IPP print setup and have not had any luck. It works from a Windows laptop. The routers directions say to use MacOS X's Internet Printing Protocol using HTTP but looking at the screens it is from an older version of OSX like 10.2. Could someone tell me how to get this to work and maybe what to put into each field?
Thanks,
Tess

It's important to understand that the standard port for IPP (& http) is :631 - but U.S.R. decided to use :1631...
You need to use the "Advanced" protocols in Print & Fax prefs. First click +, then
point the cursor on the toolbar (next to any icon) and right click/ ctrl-click > Customize Toolbar - then,
Drag the Advanced icon to the toolbar.
Click Advanced - find and select ipp via http.
Enter URI like you've shown above, except "My_Printer" is the queue name on the USR print server (Oh, actually, maybe they mean that the USR queue name IS My_Printer).

Network printing: ipp "printer is busy"/LPD and AppSock prints garbled data

Dear all,
After months of trying on and off, I give up - I need help please. Since upgrading to Leopard, then Snow Leopard, I cannot print to the office computers. Windows or IPP printer settings produce the "printer is busy - wait 15 seconds" etc error message; LPD and AppSock printer settings enable data to get through, but the output is garbled text (the Adobe Postscript 3 engine on the printer isn't happy, obviously).
We have some new colour copier/printers from FujiXerox (FX Docucentre IV C3370) and some older Canon laser printers (LBP5600), but they don't offer Bonjour connectivity and I am stuck. I can ping them, I have the latest drivers, but nothing works. They worked fine in OS10.4 on this same computer, and XP and Windows 7 of course in BootCamp, but nothing in OS10.5 or 10.6.
I've been all over the web and through the Discussions forums and tried all the suggestions I can see, to no avail. I've tried KeyChains to carry by login ID and password to the machines, and deleting/adding printers through both the System Preferences and the CUPS interface, but I confess I am stuck. I currently copy all of my documents every day to a Dell desktop on my desk just to print them out.
The Canons are run through a Windows server, the FujiXerox has a standalone IP address and no separate print queue at the moment. Running OS10.6.2 on MacBook Pro. I'm happily connected to the network and can access all sharepoints and servers, I just can print to any of the printers - it's infuriating.
Is it a Firewall problem? Sub-net problems? Any ideas most welcome, thanks for looking and sorry if I've missed out anything important.

After digging around I found the Windows drivers are ART EX drivers; obviously that doesn't really come in Macintosh flavour, but FujiXerox do have a non-postscript driver for the machine which I downloaded. This time I could connect via LPD, as FujiXerox recommend, but the print job stalls at the spooling stage; the error message reads that the 'Library/Printers/FujiXerox/Filter/FXPSACMMFilter.bundle/Contents/MacOS/FXPSACM MFilter' failed.
The filter bundle crashing could be related to permissions on the filter or a result of using a 32bit driver with a 64bit application.
For the permissions, you could opening Terminal and entering the following text;
sudo chown -R root:wheel /Library/Printers/FujiXerox/Filter/
then press ENTER. You will be prompted to enter you user name and password. The user name needs to be an account that has admin rights to the Mac.
Exit Terminal and restart the Mac. Now try printing again.
Regarding the 64bit apps, these are the included SL apps like Preview, TextEdit and Safari. If you attempted to print with one of these apps when you got the error, you could try forcing the app to open in 32bit mode. This is done with the application closed. Locate the app with Finder and do a Get Info on the package (icon). There will be the option to 'Open in 32bit mode'. Select this, close the Get Info window and open the app. Now try a print.
Regarding the Non-Postscript driver, looking at the FJ drivers web site, there are two of these drivers available. Both are showing as version 1.1, but the dates are different. Have a look at the following link to see if you have the one with the most recent date.
http://onlinesupport.fujixerox.com/setupDriverForm.do?ctrycode=AU&lang_code=en&dlang=en&pid=DCIVC3370
Greg's suggestion to use the Generic PCL is also a good alternative. One thing I did find however with the PCL5c is that it does not print in colour, even though it would suggest it does based on the name (the c normally indicates colour).
Did you get the Canon LBP printing?

More Printing Problems - 3 Macs, one works, two don't

I just started having problems printing to my Apple LaserWriter 12/640 PS printer the other day. I think it started when I added a Vonage phone connection to my network, but odd things were happening before that, and I need some advise.
I have three computers:
G5 PowerPC
and two Intel MacBooks.
I was having problems a while ago with the AppleTalk and the first Intel MacBook, so I switched it to IPP printing, and it has worked fine since.
When I got the second MacBook from work, I tried to set the printing with the same configuration - everything is exactly the same, same IP address, same printer name etc. But this second MacBook doesn't want to print.
Now the G5 is giving me the same problem.
I send and get a "Connecting to 192.168.1.110 on port 631..." message (on both the problem computers) in the printer window, and the blue candy cane does it's thing, and eventually I get a "Unable to connect to IPP host: Operation timed out" message.
I tried opening the Terminal and going and entering "telnet 192.168.1.110"
I enter my password, and can print a test page from both the G5 and the second MacBook, with no problem. So the computer is seeing the printer some how, I just can't send from any other application.
I've given up on AppleTalk, none of my computers can connect to the printer that way. (at least not anymore)
I don't want to suspect the Vonage connection, because the G5 is connected directly to the printer via my router, the MacBooks to the printer via an AirPort also connected directly to the router. And since one is working, I would think the others would as well.
The only other thing that I'm seeing that is confusing is that the IP addresses for each printer is slightly different:
G5: 192.168.15.2
MacBook 1 (the one that prints): 192.168.1.103
MacBook 2: 192.168.1.104
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Just to help us understand - did you previously set the wireless computers' IP addresses manually, to be in the subnet range of the printer, so you could print?
No - if I understand you correctly. The IP Addresses of the two MacBooks are set automatically. (I believe from the AirPort)
I did - at one point - set the IP Address of the Printer because the first MacBook, my first Intel machine, was not seeing the printer with AppleTalk. I went to the forum, and was given instructions on how to do this using the Apple Laserwriter Utility in Classic. (This was a while ago - March. I just looked back at the postings and it was your responses that solved my problem. thanks)
When I got a second Intel MacBook (from work) I had problems using the same settings to connect to the printer until I tried your solution of connecting via Line Printer Daemon - LPD. That worked until I changed the subnet settings of the printer to try to match the IP Address of the G5.
I think my mistake was to change the subnet number rather than the IP number in the Terminal. I can no longer see the printer from any of the computers, using the Terminal or any other method that I know of.
Hope this helps to troubleshoot, I appreciate the advice and help.

IPP printing long delay

I'm running Mac OS X Server 10.5.1 on a mac mini "server" (2GHz, 2 GB RAM).
Everything is working fine so far (AFP, DHCP, DNS, Firewall, NAT, Open Directory).
The only problem is with the Print service :
I've made a queue for our network laser printer (Brother HL-5250DN) on the server and share it through IPP.
I've then installed the printer in my computer (MacBook 10.5.1) and try to print.
It took me about 4-5 minutes, to see the page printed out, the printing box was stuck with the message : Connecting to myserver.local port 631 for a long time.
If i installed directly the printer to my computer it prints instantaneously.
There's a similar topic about this issue but it's now archived :
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1226866
Did you get IPP printing working fine with your server ?
Thx.

I'm a brand new new mac user. Having the same trouble to print on my brother MFC 8460N.
When I try to print it gives me a message of connecting to ip address on port 631 and that the network host is busy.
Thought mac would be easy. Setting this up on my XP was a breeze.

IPP printer migration has strange behavior

We have PM from the 6.5 suite. We set up a template to migrate printers, My Documents, and bookmarks. It collects the DNA correctly. when it restores it (Windows 2000 to Windows 2000, or Windows 2000 to Windows XP), everything comes back...EXCEPT we get a shortcut on the desktop that says "Reconnect ipp/..." which points to the ipp printer that was collected. When you click on this shortcut, the Add Printer wiz starts.
IF you REBOOT after the DNA restore without clicking on this shortcut, it will disappear when the customer logs in, but then the Add Printer starts automatically. If you CANCEL the add printer, everything works fine, and the ipp printer is present and correctly installed.
Is this correct behavior? How do I eliminate the shortcut/add printer wizard from starting since it appears it is not needed?
thanks

DeliveryManager IPP Printing Attributes

Hello. I am using the DeliveryManager API to print reports to our printers. We are using two types: HP Laserjet and Canon ImageRunner
Everything works okay for the Laserjet but when I try to run the Canon, I have to physically go to the printer and select the printer tray and the no of copies I specified is being ignored (not to mention it prints on both sides of paper)
I understand the following link has a disclaimer on setting printer properties and this could be where my problem is coming from:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/bi.1111/e18863/delmgrapis.htm#CHDCGDEB
The following properties are supported. A string value is required for each property, unless otherwise noted. Note that printer-specific properties such as IPP_SIDES, IPP_COPIES and IPP_ORIENTATION depend on the printer capabilities. For example, if the target printer does not support duplex printing, the IPP_SIDES setting will have no effect.
But my question is, where do I start looking on the printer side if this is the case? Is it a ghostscript? A driver setting? I looked into CUPS but it seems that it's only used for making sure that the files are being understood by the printer. Both printers can print PDF files, the Canon printer just happens to ignore the printing attributes I specified.
I also initially used BI Publisher Web Service to send files to the Canon printer and it does take the number of copies and doesn't ask me for tray selection. So I am not sure if this is even a printer config case at this point either.
Below is the excerpt of the code. I tried various media types as well in the input and with no luck. Thank you very much. Any help is appreciated.

IPP Printing from Linux or Mac to Windows server

I have windows server 2003 R2 ent with ipp printing installed. All windows clients are ale to connect, install and print to a shared printer via ipp. When connecting via a linux or mac machine, I am not able to print. I am asked for the creditionals to print but it does nothing.
The ipp server is set to accept authentication via Intergrated Windows Authentication. I had read this is compatible with firefox and other browsers.
Is there any particular settings I am missing on this one?
The goal is to require only domain users access to the printers.

Hi,
Thank you for posting here.
Since we can print from Windows clients properly, it indicates Windows Printing Server is working OK. Base on my research, we may have to setup a CUPS server so that Linux client communicate with CUPS Server and CUPS communicate with Windows Printer Server using IPP. For your reference:
HowTo: Print to a Windows Print Server from a Linux Client.

Sudden printing problems with scanned pdf documents

Hi, I suddenly experience problems when I want to print scanned pdf documents.
Since 2 years, I am using an iMac with a Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500M and a Samsung ML-2525W. I also use Acrobat Pro 9.0 provided with the scanner. I scan documents, save them as pdfs and print them. Worked fine until just recently. If I print scanned pdf documents, the printer give white pages. Other pdf documents get printed without problems.
I use OS X Yosemite (10.10.1) and ScanSnap Manager 3.2.L63.
Any advice is highly appreciated

Hi Roger - the problem was going from 10.6.7 to 10.6.8. That is when all of the printing problems began, as well as the wifi getting flaky. I was able to get the iMac speaking politely to the printer by installing Repair 10.6.8 and re-adding the Canon printer (see below):
Printer “failure”
Probably the single most common 10.6.8 problem, at least as evidenced by a massive 17 page thread in Apple Support Communities, is a failure to print. The typical symptom is that the printer driver software pauses, displaying a message that states something like: “printer-state-message="/usr/libexec/cups/backend/lpd failed" or “/usr/libexec/cups/backend/dnssd failed.” Not all printers have this problem, but users report seeing the symptom in a variety of different printers.
As is often the case with update-related problems, reinstalling 10.6.8 from the combo updater may eradicate the symptom. Another possible solution is modifying a printer file in the /etc/cups/ppd directory (as detailed in the above-linked thread).
Unfortunately, none of these solutions are guaranteed to work. What does reliably fix the problem is to downgrade back to 10.6.7. If you’d rather stick with 10.6.8, you can instead downgrade just the quartet of printer-related files that appear to be the root cause of the symptom. These are the socket, dnssd, lpd and ipp files, located in the /usr/libexec/cups/backend directory.
A Mac user wrote an application, Repair10.6.8 (direct download link), that automatically downgrades these four files for you. Several users report success with this program. After running the Repair app, you may also need to “reset printing system” by selecting the command from the contextual menu for the printer name in the Print & Fax System Preferences pane.

Airport Extreme Printing Problem with HP Deskjet.

Hello ... I wonder if any helpful folks can assist me with my printing problem? I am using Tiger on a new Intel imac with a HP Deskjet 960C. This printer is listed as having the latest drivers included within Tiger and works perfectly when connected via USB so my problem I guess is not with the software....I have disconnected everything and plugged everything back together again. I also deleted the printer from the printer list within the Printer Setup Utility application.... The imac recognisies the printer and upon pressing the print button everything feels as though its just going to work. The blue barber shop scroll appears but the printer fails to kick into gear and I get the big red exclamation mark appearing in the status box .... I would really love to try and sort this annoying error ... Any ideas? Thanks. Book G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Hello jds17. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Unfortunately, not all USB printers are compatible with AirPort base stations.
Take a look at one of these iFelix Unofficial AirPort Printer Compatibility links, depending on which AirPort base station you have:
o 802.11g AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) or AirPort Express Base Station (AX)
o 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn)
If your printer isn't listed, it doesn't necessarily mean it won't work, but simply that it has not been verified. iFelix also provides the following workaround for printers not on the list that would certainly be worth a try.
Also, you may find the following Apple article helpful.

Not printing text-only graphics on Canon. Not printer problem-print ok on Brother and another network Apple prints ok on Canon. Believe a computer setting was inadvertently reset. What setting and how do I reset?

Not printing text only on Canon--grahics print ok. Not printer problem. Prints ok on a Brother and another network Apple prints ok on Canon. Believe a computer setting was inadvertently reset. What setting and how do I reset?

Without your printer model numbers, readers can only give you vague general directions.
System Preferences > Print&Fax > ...
... shows a list of all set-up printers.
If you are having serious problems, it makes sense to "Reset the Printing System" (which also removes all printer set-ups) and add back each printer. It only takes a few minutes.

Hi priyashekar,

Canon 860 Series (Pixma) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips

After spending several hours sorting out Canon Pixma OSX problems here are my thoughts:
Canon 860 Series (Pixma 868) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips
Problem:
- New imac and MacBook Pro 2012 (OSX 10.8.2) had a problem using Canon Pixma 868 printer on network and would not scan or print using Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print), which has advanced scanning and photo printing functions.
- When I connected the canon printer to my imac, OSX 10.8.2 automatically downloaded and installed drivers for Canon 860 series printer. I could then add the new printer (select ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”) and printer would work while connected via USB but could not get to print or scan over network wifi.
- The original Canon 860 Series CD does not work with 10.8 and the manual / online instructions did not make sense (as based on CD install).
Solution:
1) Install Canon Printer Drivers and Software (from official Canon site)
Go to canon support site, review FAQ, then download and install following Pixma 860 Series software & drivers for OSX 10.8 (links see below). The version I downloaded is in brackets but check for updated version. Full instructions are below.
Canon 860 Series Drivers & Software for OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion:
The base software and drivers needed for using Canon 860 Series on Mac OS X 10.8 (USB) are
1 Printer Driver
(Canon MX860 series CUPS Printer Driver Ver. 10.67.1.0 (03-Aug-2012))
2 Scanner Driver
(Canon MX860 series Scanner Driver Ver. 14.11.4a (03-Aug-2012))
3 Network Tool
(Canon IJ Network Tool Ver. 4.1.0 for Intel Mac (27-Dec-2012)
Canon Software for using advanced printing and scanning functions (while connected to network)
4 Solution Menu

Canon Support (HK) – check your local site
http://www.canon.com.hk/en/download/main/index.do
Select Product and drivers from support site eg http://support-hk.canon-asia.com/
1. Choose a product category
Multifunctional Printers
2. Choose a product series
Pixma
3. Choose a product model
Pixma MX868
4. Choose type of document
Downloads or FAQ
If you have problems installing the software under 10.8, see the FAQ on Canon site. You will need to allow software installs from “unidentified developers by using “Control” Key or by changing your system preferences)
2) Check Canon Printer and Software Working while connected via USB
Once you have downloaded and installed drivers and software and restarted computer, check that the printer and Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print) are working via USB. Open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App) and make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it shows the correct SSID Wifi settings (under the Canon IJ Network Tool App ‘Setup menu’). This is normally done as part of the automatic install but worth double checking
3) Add new network printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”).
After you have checked USB printing turn off printer, unplug the USB cable and shutdown the Canon IJ Network Tool App.
Then turn the printer back on and wait 30s. Then add a new printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”). Once you select “+” (add new printer), wait 10-30s for the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer to appear in the new window eg Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) (Kind: “Canon IJ Network”)
DO NOT ADD THE MX 860 SERIES BONJOUR SCANNER (the Bonjour Scanner is the built-in software, is not needed and often appears first on the add printer list). The Canon scanner can be accessed used through the MP Nav EX Ver. 2.1.3 software (which has much better functions)
You will now have two Printer Canon MX860 (USB) and Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network). Set the Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network) as default and test print and scan
If the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer does not appear, check the printer and make sure that the printer can see the wifi network. On the printer select Menu / Settings / Device Settings / Lan Settings / WLAN Setting List. It should say WLAN Active, identify the SSID and have an IP address
If the printer can not see the Wifi Network, plug the USB cable back in, then open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App). Make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it has your SSID settings (under setup), if it has this info, restart the computer and the printer and try again

Hi, thaks for response, meant to post as a discussion (not question), wanted to save others time if they get the same problem

Print problem. trying to print a document in Preview, the start of the text prints half way down the page not at the top of the page?

Print problems. Printing out an email the text starts half way down the page. I tried taking a picture of the text I wanted to print, tried to print from Preview and have the same problem. If anyone has any ideas I would really apreciate it. Thanks Penny

One more thing to check: System Preferences/Print & Scan. Make sure your printer is set as Default.
I'm using OS X 10.8 and I don't see Page Setup anymore. If you have access to Page Setup, check to see if there are any adjustments to make there.
