14.2 -> current, cups broken for Samsung SCX?
by slackerDude from LinuxQuestions.org on (#568PR)
Anyone else had issues upgrading from 14.2 to current, copying over existing CUPS config files / PPD files, as well as a couple of filters (in my case, Samsung SCX-4725fn), and things just aren't working?
I see all kinds of "can't find /etc/cups/ppd/Samsung.ppd" (file exists!) message. On my 14.2 system (I have it in an old partition, so I can see all the settings), I didn't need to add any users to the lp group. But root should be able to send a test page regardless.
Plus, my Ricoh C250DN (color laser) works - using the same method. I've already removed and re-added the Samsung using the CUPS HTTP interface - same results.
Some errors I'm seeing are:
D [28/Jul/2020:10:44:30 -0700] [Job 6] PID 27448 (/usr/lib64/cups/filter/rastertospl) stopped with status 1.
...
E [28/Jul/2020:10:44:30 -0700] [Job 6] Unable to open raster stream - : Broken pipe

D [28/Jul/2020:10:44:30 -0700] [Job 6] GPL Ghostscript 9.52: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
Looking through my old /var/log/cups/error_log, I see none of these issues..

Anyone else run into a similar issue? Did I forget something? Guess I'll have to wrestle with Samsung's filter stuff again..
