Given that the CUPS bug has been closed as a driver issue what is the way forward now? We can obviously hope that Samsung update the driver but in case that takes a long time does anyone understand enough about what michaelrsweet was saying to be able to patch the Samsung driver to work with CUPS 2.11 in the meantime?

@aneiser - Puh ... thank you :)

@ingo66 I finished bisecting it and found the following commit to be the culprit:

https://github.com/apple/cups/commit/558bba72feccba755135e140c350bb34ec20986c

Reported an issue here: https://github.com/apple/cups/issues/5562 Feel free to add more information into the issue.

My printer is a Samsung CLX-3185.

Hello,

Ok, I have tried the following:

$ git clone  <https://github.com/apple/cups.git>
$ cd cups
$ git bisect start
$ git bisect good v2.2.10
$ git bisect bad v2.2.11

with the result:

binäre Suche: danach noch 16 Commits zum Testen übrig (ungefähr 4 Schritte)
[019198b76b1164cfad27cd4543acb08e7db01f9e] Missing printer-uri when enabling printer (mirror fix from master).

Was that the idea up to here?

In the INSTALL.md I read about ./configure; make; make check. I have never created a package for arch linux before. Is this even necessary for the further steps?

@ingo66 You would need to use git bisect and build cups after every step, and after 5-6 steps you would know exactly which commit caused it.

Hello,

I looked at all commits between 13.01.2019 (version 2.2.10) and 24.03.2019 (version 2.2.11), but unfortunately I don't have the necessary knowledge to be able to say which one led to the current situation.

Sorry.

@liOnux @ingo66

This might be a regression in cups. Could you bisect the changes since v2.2.10 to see which commit caused it?

https://github.com/apple/cups/compare/v2.2.10...v2.2.11

We could then report it upstream, and ask the maintainer of the cups package to revert the commit for now.

Hello,

With the samsung-unified-driver 4.00.39-5 for my Samsung CLP-310 along with cups and libcups 2.2.11-1 I have a similar Error-Message by sending a print job.

After downgraded cups and libcups to 2.2.10-2 the printer prints as expected.
