[Solved] CUPS: Unable to write print data: Input/output error

I'm filling this for the benefit of those poor googlers that can reach here.
Symptoms: After trying to print a "complex" image the printer made too much breaks, and failed.
The problem is, it then didn't came up. I mean, I restarted the printer, cupsd, the whole system, and nothing.
I was unable to print again, it showed "Unable to write print data: Input/output error" and refused to print anything.
I then saw that in /etc/cups I had printers.conf and printers.conf.O files, which differed (other than in StateTime), that printers.conf.O had
State Idle
but printers.conf had:
State Stopped
StateMessage Unable to write print data: Input/output error
Reason paused
Probably due to the ErrorPolicy being stop-printer.
So seeing I followed the following steps:
Stop cups
Replace printers.conf with printers.conf.O (I could also had manually edited it)
Start cups
It then went working flawlessly.
There was probably an option in the web interface combobox for doing that. The problem is that I didn't realise it was stopped, so didn't know how to make it work. Moreover, some posts in the web recommended reinstalling the printer (which would skip the problem by creating a new printer).

I think that I had this same problem, and fixed it by reinstalling the printer. Thank you for your post.

HI Gene,
"This usually works fine but now and then I get an error that says " Unable to create disk1s10.dmg Input/output error." Have you downloaded and installed any 3rd party software or changed any preference files since you've successfully done this before ??
If your profile is correct, you might try updating from 10.4.8 to 10.4.11. If you do, make sure and Repair Disk Permissions when it's finished.

Disk Utility Input/Output Error

I am trying to make digital backups of some home movie DVDs I have created in the last few years with iMovie and iDVD. Every time I use the iMac to try and make a disk image with Disk Utility, it gets about halfway through the process and then I get an error message that says, "Unable to create "disk3.dmg" - Input/output error." I usually have better luck on my older Powerbook G4, though I sometimes get the same message there. Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening...and how I can fix it? Of note, I have tried different names for the disk image, but it doesn't seem to have any effect.

You're going to love this...
I had been getting the exact same error, even after I've done full image backups of my main volume just a few months before. Since I couldn't perform the image backup, I tried copying important files manually. When copying some 3000 files from my Documents folder, the *entire copy* failed...one file was corrupted and was unreadable. So instead of just asking if you want to skip and continue, the entire operation fails. I deleted the corrupted file, and booted from an alternate system, and voila! I successfully created an image of my main volume and saved it to an external HD in about 15 mins. No problems whatsoever. Unbelievable.
Make sure your DVDs are clean, ie, such that all the files can be read correctly.
What bugs me most, is that the bad file was not detected when I ran the Disk Repair utility on the main volume (from another booted drive of course).
What am I missing such that I can detect issues like this in the future?

'unable to send print data' on HP Laserjet 1536dnf MFP

Hi there,
I'm running an iMac with OSX 10.6.8. Via an USB cable I have attached a HP Laserjet 1536dnf MFP to the iMac.
I also use this printer to print via wifi (i.e. through the iMac) with my MacBook Pro (with OSX 10.7.3).
Suddenly today the printer stopped working via my MacBook Pro. I get an error message: 'unable to send print data'.
I have checked my antivirus etc., but that does not appear to be the problem. I have also updated the firmware of the printer, without success.
Can somebody help me out? Is the OS difference the problem? But until today that hasn't been a problem.
Thank you very much! Regards, Luc.

Hi jemenake
I understand you lost connection with the network for the Laserjet 1536 through ethernet connection.
Disconnect the routers power cable, wait 10 seconds, then reconnect the power cable. Wait till it's ready. The router might not be finding the printer on the network.
If this doesn't resolve the issue continue to the next steps.
Print a configuration report from the LaserJet 1536dnf.
Press the Setup button, (the one with the wrench on it)
reports, press OK, Config Report, press OK.
Check to see if the ip address is valid.
If you have a valid ip address then delete and add the printer on the mac, the driver might have become corrupted.
Delete printer on mac.
Click on the Apple, click System & Preferences,then click the Print & Scan icon (on some systems this may be displayed as Print & Fax),highlight your printer name and click the button on the bottom left corner of the screen.
Add printer on the mac.
Click on the Apple, click System & Preferences, and then click the Print & Scan icon (on some systems this may be displayed as Print & Fax),click add a printer, then select the printer from the list, make sure the printer listed beside use or print: shows proper printer name and not airprint, (airprint is a preinstalled apple driver with basic funtionality if on 10.8) add it in.
If the ip address is not valid please let me know.

CUPS unable to locate printer

Up until this morning our two iMacs (one on 10.5, the other on 10.6) were able to print OK to our Magicolor 2300DL. Not any more. The printer keeps automatically going into pause on both iMacs. Looking in the console log shows 'CUPS unable to locate printer'. Both iMacs and 2300DL have been power-cycled. The printer can be browsed to quite happily which to my mind suggests that it is there on the network. I have removed the printer and re-added it. I have reset the printer system. Then re-added the 2300DL. The printer will happily print a test page from its own panel.
Digging around a little suggested that perhaps Bonjour was not locating the printer. So I ran Bonjour Browser and did not see any print services displayed. Thought I was onto a solution (although why both iMacs should fail seemed strange).
To double-check I fired up my G4 (running 10.5) and that prints quite happily to the 2300DL. So I ran Bonjour Browser and to my surprise got exactly the same listing as I got on my iMac.
So now I am really confused and not sure where to go next. I even power-cycled the router!

In the absence of any suggestions, I have found a workaround and which I post here for the benefit of others. I was able to add the 2300DL ...using the HP JetDirect option. Seems to work OK

Restoring .dmg image from external to Mac HD in Disk Utility: "Unable to scan image (Input/output error)"

Hi guys,
So I've got a problem with restoring the image backup I did (using Disk Utility) of my 500GB HD on my MBP which was acting weird or maybe even crashed a few months ago. After creating the backup image and putting it on my external device, I installed Mavericks back to see if everything was alright (mainly the HD) and everything seems okay.
I did try restoring the backup image through disk utility before installing mavericks (thus erasing everything again on the HD) AND after. But nothing..
The whole process starts fine and then it starts scanning the image when after maybe a good 10-15min in I get a message that says that it was unable to scan the image. I tried verifying the disk(s), everything came out "OK". Also tried scanning it through Images > Scan image for Restore... with the same results.
While searching I've seen people getting messages like "Unable to scan filename.dmg (Invalid argument)" and "Unable to scan filename.dmg
(Internal error)" but none have (Input/output error)
The screen grab is below.
I also came across something about using terminal/commands but I'm not that savvy with it, especially considering that those there had issues with either mounting or trouble finding the image.
I've also tried moving the backup image to a different external device 2TB and also the desktop because I read it may have to do with the format of the externals or maybe free space. But THEN I would get a message saying
"The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in "Mac HD Backup.dmg" can't be read or written. Error code -36"
Fyi ALL my externals are HFS+/Journaled and the backup image format was compressed.
I REALLY don't know what to do next. Was it the wrong move to create a dmg image? Have I lost everything? Is there still a way out?
If anyone can help, THANKS!

Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider. You may have to leave the machine there for several days.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional—ask if you need guidance.
If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.

Disk Utility says: "Unable to read FAT (Input/output error)"

I have a Western Digital Passport external hard drive factory formatted as FAT32. It worked as advertised for over half a year before it suddenly stopped working and refuses to mount on the desktop (it is visible in /dev). No odd sounds and the disk or other problems, a different USB cable makes no difference.
The disk shows up as an empty disk in Windows 7 even though it is supposed to contain a small iTunes library. I have tried to repair the disk in Disk Utility in OS X 10.6.4. This is the latest attempt to repair the disk, copied from the log:
2010-08-10 15:58:44 +0200: ** /dev/disk2s1 (NO WRITE)

2010-08-10 15:58:44 +0200: Unable to read FAT (Input/output error)
Does anyone have any recommendation on repair/recovery applications? I own a copy of DIskWarrior already but DW is a HFS-olny repair app…

[solved] NFS: "ls: reading directory .: Input/output error" after time

Hello,
I got the following configuration:
NFS-server: Always on, connected via LAN.
NFS-clients: 2 computers, connected via LAN and WLAN. On standby: auto umount NFS-share via system-sleep-hook with systemd.
This works flawlessly some hours or even days. But after some time, the following happens:
1. mount nfs-share: no error message
2a. trying to access that folder via filemanager, e.g. thunar: folder seems to be empty (it isn't on server!), but the correct freesize of the NFS-share on server is displayed in the statusbar.
2b. trying to access that folder via commandline:
$ ls
ls: reading directory .: Input/output error
The very same worked just a few hours before, I haven't changed anything meanwhile. Apart from standby (--> auto umount NFS-share) and resume (manual mount NFS-share) on the clients which worked before, too.
Any idea what's going wrong?
additional info:
server:
/etc/exports
/srv/nfs/myshare 192.168.2.0/24(rw,all_squash,anonuid=33,anongid=33,no_subtree_check)

(last one repeats several times...)
Indeed, the NFS-share resists on a external WD harddrive connected via USB, /dev/sdc1.
As suggested in the NFS wiki article, the NFS-share is a bind-mount:
/etc/fstab on server:
# fake-root for NFS
/magnet/owncloud/data/carl/files /srv/nfs/myshare none bind,noauto,x-systemd.automount
while /srv is on /dev/sda1.
The external harddrive has an auto-standby (NOT hdparm...) which isn't causing troubles with other services.
So it seems to be a problem connected to this bind-mount to external USB setup....
I'll try to find out whether there is a way to avoid that.
Thanks so far!

Help -- backup data with disk utility, input/output error.

My problem started when my MacBook Pro computer (with OsX) froze. When I restarted, the startup screen stayed on for a long time. Now, the startup screen stays on for a few seconds and then shuts off. I do NOT have a recent backup of my data. I have tried the following:
Went onto the recovery partition, used Disk Utility. When I verified the disk, it said it needed repair. When I tried to repair the disk, it said it could not be repaired.
I then tried to copy a disk image of the hard drive onto my external hard drive, but it says there is an "input/output error" and won't allow it. How else can I backup files on my computer at this point?

Had issue partitioning 2TB my passport drive, got input/output error while using disk utility.
Here is what I did to get my external disk back
In Disk Utility
1) Try to use erase option first, it failed
2) Try to partition the disk, failed as well.
3) Then try erase option again, then ... it worked !!

Hi, I have a hard disk failure so to recover my data I am using disk utility to restore the data on an external drive while booting from a second external hard drive. When I perform the operation it gives me an input/output error and stops. Any tips?

Hi, I have a hard disk failure so to recover my data I am using disk utility to restore the data on an external drive while booting from a second external hard drive. When I perform the operation and after having selected both my destination and source drives, the operation begins but soon fails due to input/output error. If I try to create an image of the drive it gives me the same error message. Any help would be much appreciated.

Disk Utility only creates a image of the drive, so it's no help getting exactly what you want, which is your files. If the file structure is messed up or the drive is failing then it's no help.
If you have a external boot drive and you can't access the internal non-booting drive though the typical Finder and windows to transfer your files via drag and drop methods, then you need to install Data Rescue on the external boot drive and it will do as best as it can to recover your files. (works on non-encrypted/non-Filevaulted drives only)
.Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
Are you sure you have hard drive failure, or that OS X isn't merely not booting?

Unable to create "filename.cdr". (Input/output error)

I am trying to create an ISO from a CD. I've tried using Disk Utility, with all different settings, and Terminal. Additionally, I attempted to make the ISO using an array of third party CD-rippers on a PC. Every platform and method has yielded this error message:
Unable to create "filename.cdr". (Input/output error) after several seconds of processing.
I am stuck. The only thing I can think of is that the CD is read-only, though I don't know how to modify my approach in response to this. Can it still be done with a read-only disk? If so, any help in this would be appreciated.
Beyond that, the disk's format is ISO 9660 (Rockridge). I don't know of any other details to provide, but gladly will if anyone can come up with any.

The drive is 4tb
We have tried exporting to many different locations with no luck
Its a very nice video editting system. We just need to figure out this exporter

SOLVED: Getting an Input/Output error when accessing certain files

My system started failing a few days ago because of sudden Input/Output errors when trying to access certain files. It was running fine until various applications started crashing like for example Pidgin (in retrospect probably because of DBus crashing). I decided to reboot and now can't login anymore because the DBus module fails to load which in turn means that HAL doesn't load either and so I can't use my keyboard to login.
The error message I get from DBus is that it can't access the file /etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.conf because of an Input/Output error. I tried to fix/see what was wrong using the arch livecd. Because I thought my problem had to do with a pacman update that had failed before I'd rebooted, I updated my system and I noticed that when pacman tried to access other files it came back with the same error message. The files seemed pretty random, one of them was fakeroot.conf and then several library files like libfaad (sorry this is kind of vague but I'm away from home right now and can't go online very often so I'm writing this from memory).
I'm guessing its a hard drive problem because checking the filesystem for errors came back with nothing. I was just wondering whether anyone had any other ideas before I go and reinstall. I'm going back home tomorrow so I'll be able to follow any advice/reinstall then.

UPDATE
It seems to be fixed! The second run of e2fsck fixed some more issues and the files that were causing the problems earlier seemed to have bad inodes. Boots fine now and I can get into my system. I checked and I still have a reasonable amount of free space so I don't think that was the reason ... I have no idea how the filesystem got so corrupted out of nowhere.
A few things are different, for example, it asked me to unlock the keyring and I couldn't mount my external encrypted drive anymore and had to do it manually with cryptsetup. e2fsck made quite a few changes so I imagine it's due to that. Shouldn't be to hard to fix though.
Thanks for your help!
