Netware - OS X 10.9 Printers Install to file:///dev/null

SUMMARY: Printers install incorrectly with the iPrint 5.74 client to OS X 10.9.x workstations from an iPrint Manager on Netware 6.5sp8 with the iPrint .8f patch. Their URI is set to file:///dev/null , which makes them appear to operate correctly but no jobs ever reach the printer.
LONGER VERSION:
This may be a function of Netware. I have a server running Netware 6.5 sp8 with the iPrint 8f patch and workstations with latest OS X iprint client (5.74). OS X is at 10.9.1. When I install a printer from this server, jobs submitted appear to print correctly but never actually come out of the printer. The iPrint Management web interface shows that no new jobs have been submitted to the printer.
A packet trace shows no traffic from the workstation to the printer.
Looking deeper, I see that the OS X iPrint client does NOT list the printer as an iPrint printer in its GUI interface. However, OS X DOES show a printer of the same name as existing. During installation, the iPrint client does give a popup indicating that the printer was installed correctly. When iPrint's trace.txt is examined, the installation of the printer is logged, but not the submission of print jobs to it. The errors.txt file indicates that at least one printer has the URI file:///dev/null but the name of the printer is not indicated.
When the OS X CUPS interface is examined directly, I find that the printer that was just installed via iPrint does indeed have its URI set to file:///dev/null .
Machines with OS X 10.8 and below print correctly and are set to the proper ipp URI instead of file:///dev/null. Printers installed from an OES manager are fine even on OS X 10.9. Also, printers that do have the URI problem get otherwise correct information during installation -- they receive correct name, location, and driver.
The release notes for the 8f iPrint patch for Netware explicitly mention 10.8 compatibility but not 10.9. I see elsewhere that the 8f patch may have been created in response to an Apache hog created by OS X 10.9, so that release is within the calculations of the Dev team (and was already released when the 8f patch appeared). However, it does appear that there is a 10.9-related bug even in the 5.74 client.
Has anyone else seen this behavior? Is anyone aware of a work-around?
If anyone is interested in investigating, a can provide lots of logs.
I have also submitted a bug on this issue via the regular bug reporting page.

Simon Flood has helpfully pointed me towards the root issue: Space names in the printer cause problems in 10.9. There is now a TID for the issue -- 7014704 -- but no work-around. However, I'm sure there will be a client fix soon.

Sorry for late reply i was not at work
I have a default set excel is still throwing error. Interestingly winword , powerpoint and publisher are working fine. I am able to print from all office applications except Excel.
Probably excel behaves differently from other office applications.
Probably it is a bug in excel
Workaround : Log on to a system once using newly created account then runas excel using this account then print works fine.
It means something in user profile should be configure to run excel print operation. Could you please somebody help what I need to configure in user profile that makes print operation success?

HT3669 I only have a HP printer and why I need to install a file for all the HP printers drivers 590MB??? if normally the size of my file should be 5MB. some one could me help to avoid installation of 590MB for my new mountain lion software???

Hi guys..!!
I would like to know if someone could help on this:
I just have a HP printer (HP Designjet 100) and for some reason I need to install a file for all the HP printers drivers in total 590MB to be able to use my printer in my mountain lion???
If normally the size of my files in the for previous software was more or less 5MB why now i need to install 590?
Some one could help me how to avoid installation of 590MB for my new mountain lion software???
Thanks

If you go to http://support.apple.com/downloads and locate the HP Printer Drivers installer, you will find that it is 473.4 MB (for version 2.11). If you install this, it will install the full set of drivers for every model of HP printer that is supported by the drivers distributed through Apple. The disk space occupied once installed will probably be larger than the download, since the downloaded file is compressed.
On the other hand, if you have an HP printer connected and you use Software Update (or the Update tab in App Store), that should offer you a much smaller set of HP drivers, which are only applicable to your printer (and possibly a few similar ones). These updates are typically only tens of megabytes rather than hundreds of megabytes.
If Software Update doesn't offer you any HP drivers then it either thinks you have the latest drivers installed already, or the printer model is not supported by the drivers available from Apple.
This article lists all of the printer models for which Apple distributes the driver:

Reader 9.2.0 Says I Have No Printers Installed

I've just installed Adobe Reader 9.2.0 on a new PC at home. When I try to print a PDF it says I must install a printer to use any print function. However, I've got several printers installed (some local, some networked) and I can see them when I invoke Reader's "Print Setup". I can also print to my printers in other applications (Word, etc). Is there a fix or an update expected? I have no problems with earlier releases of Reader on other PCs on the home network I run.

By chance I've found a workaround.
I noticed that the same bug occurred in Reader 8, so used the workaround recommended for that release.
I assigned a local printer as the default Windows printer. Reader then allows me to print so I can choose which printer (remote) on which to print.
However, it's poor that Adobe haven't yet fixed in Reader 9.0 a bug that was reported in Reader 8.

Lists workstations wchich a=have some network printers installed

Hi to all,
I really need help. My boss asks me to write a powershell script wchich can list all the
windows workstations which a have some
network Lexmark printers installed.And where the name of these network printers start with "BO" for example.
I'm learning Powershell by myself and i'm not an expert.
Any help please.
Thank you in advance for your answer.
Regards,
LeBalbo

Network printers are not installed to the workstation. They are usually installed to the user account.
If there are any attached fromm Group Policy this is how to find them
get-printer -Name BO* -ComputerName PC01 |where type -eq 'Connection'
I also recommend that you ask you boss what his definition of "Network Printer" is?

Is there a way to open powerpc installer in Mavericks to just install library files (not run power pc app)?

Hello, I was looking to install some files from a power pc program. However, I have osx x mavericks. I know the deal, since snow leopard apple swicthed to intel processors. I was wondering since I only need to install files and not install and run a powerpc app ,is there any way I can get the installer open to grab these files that I need? I just need the files, not to run the program, there has to be a way around this without having to run a program like paralells or to run a dual boot with leopard on another drive?
I'm trying to run a music plug in instrument program in Logic and I have everything installed except for the actual sound libraries wich need to be installed off this power pc installer. I went to the companies website and downloaded and installed all of the latest updates. I then ran a report which is telling me that I just need to install the missing library files (on the powere pc installation). Which I find confusing since I thought the whole point of the update i nstall was a way around that? Any help would be appreciated, thanks for your time.

In my experience advising Logic users, depending upon the version of Logic and the model Mac you are using, if your Mac will boot from Snow Leopard, you can install Logic and all of its plug-ins in Snow Leopard and then upgrade to Mavericks.

Failed to install 1 file

I recently upgraded to a Palm T/X and after a couple of issues with synchronizing and installing files I think I've got the issues solved by changing the conduit of certain programs and upgrading to the new Palm Desktop (which I don't like as well as the old one but, Oh well!) it works OK specially installing files and that is all that matters. My recent issue is with a program I bought to back up my Palm since I no longer could do it by just inserting the backup card and restoring or backing up. This is the message I get when synchronizing: Failed to install 1 file(s) - BackupBuddyVFS.PRC - Invalid handheld file (file deleted) - Conduit Error: Invalid synchronization type (1012) - CONDERR_BAD_SYNC_TYPE.
I appreciate any help I can get, hopefully this is the last issue I have and I can start enjoying my new Palm.
Thanks!!!

This question was solved.
View Solution.

I upgraded from a Palm Zire72 and I'm pretty sure I followed the installation and synch instructions but I don't recall it asking to rename the backup file but I may be wrong. I've downloaded other applications including NVBackup without any problems. I guess I don't need it now since I have NVBackup but I paid for BackupBuddy and would like to see what it does. The one thing I can tell you is that I deleted a few files that I thought I no longer needed to make some room such as a couple of games and AvantGo. Hope this gives you some ideas and can help figure it out.

'Windows cannot install required files' error while installing Vista SP1

I'm installing Vista Client SP1 on my Macbook pro and getting the following error:
Windows cannot install required files. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation.
Almost exactly as described in this KB article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/930984/ except my error code is 0x80070017. I'm double-checked CRC on my dvd to ensure it's not corrupt. Also I've previously successfully installed Vista SP1 from the SAME DVD on a different Mac Leopard (desktop)
Any ideas? This is a new Macbook pro, just got it yesterday. Could be DVD drive issue?
Thanks!

Did you get far enough to delete the FAT partition BootCamp created, so you could create a new NTFS one?

Installation Failed The installer can't install some files in "/".

The full message is
Installation Failed! The installer can't install some files in "/". Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.
I first received this message when trying to upgrade Pro Tools from 8.0 to 8.0.1 a prerelease for snow leopard. I tried numerous things such as repairing permissions, as well as some pro tools specific things and to no avail. Still got the same error message.
So then I tried completely uninstalling and deleting all things pro tools from my computer. After a clean uninstall and removing all traces of pro tools I proceeded to try and re-install pro tools from my pro tools 8 disk. About a minute into the process I get the EXACT same error message.
I know this issue has been going on since even before snow leopard. I really need to get pro tools installed and running again or at least be able to get the program installed. I've isolated pro tools out of the mix because its been several different installers and even an installer from a dvd. I know this is a Snow Leopard or plain OS based problem. I have repaired permissions, created a brand new user, wiped clean and started over. I don't know anything else to do. PLEASE HELP???!!!

Hi Dean@mac & welcome to the forums...
Any specifics why it wants to install to / instead of Applications, as an example?
Seen these threads yet?
http://discussions.apple.com/search.jspa?search=Go&q=pro+tools
One thing to help investigate the issue is to create a new user just for testing that is stock with no add-on's etc., then login there and try to install. If it works there you can bet there is something unique to your original account that is borking that install - otherwise the issue is most likely global to your system and you might be out of luck until/unless a reportedly qualified version becomes available, etc.
Good luck in any case.

How do I install a file named "firefox_plugin_2.1.1.0720.fzip" ?

Hi,
I am trying to install a firefox extension from Foxit software (PDF reader) but firefox always comes back and says it is unable to start anti-virus program
Then when I get past that the file: how do I install a file named "firefox_plugin_2.1.1.0720.fzip" will not unzip or load into firefox. How do I get the program/extension to load?
Thank you

Hi and thanks for getting back to me.
Normally I am able to do most things with Windows and most programs..
However, I am not able to open the file with Firefox as it wants me to tell it which program to use.
I have the file on my desktop, but Notepad will not open it.
Firefox also asks me which program to use when Firefox is asking me "what should firefox do with this file?" That happens after I have gone to Firefox/File/Open file and it gives me the question of what do you want Firefos to do with this file.
The only choices are to open it or save it.
My problem is I do not know which program to select to open it.
So which program should I use?
Very sorry and thank you again.

How do you install a file system on an empty partition?

Hi. I'm running 10.3.9 on a B&W G3. I've formatted a 100Gb drive with a 40Gb partition on which Panther is installed (and which is running even as I type) and several empty partitions. I was going to install OS 9 on one of the empty partitions, but Disk Utility doesn't seem to want to let me do install a file system on an empty partition. Hence, the OS 9 installer can't find the empty partitions, and therefore can't install.
Is there another way to put a file system on an empty partition?

Matt--
One suggestion: if you can't figure out how to put a file system on the empty space, you could clone your current partition to an external drive, re-partition the internal drive drive and then clone the external back. Like John, I've heard of utilities that can re-partition a drive without erasing your data, but I just can't imagine using one if I didn't have a clone anyway. So that's what I've done when I want to change a partition size.
