Print jobs to boomaga are not executed #131

Open androidonis opened 2 months ago

androidonis commented 2 months ago

I used Boomaga for years without problems. But today I can not use it anymore. System: Mabox (Arch-Linux) First the GUI did not open with a library error. I deinstalled and reinstalled. Now I can open GUI. But when I print anything to boomaga the print job is pending and never shows up in Boomaga. Other print jobs to other printers work well. I am not a system expert - so no idea where to look into deeper. Regards Andreas

I've exactly the same problem on Linux Mint V22 and I too did exactly the same and I too have exactly the same outcome

In the meantime I solved it. Key was opening CUPS with http://localhost:631/admin/ With http://localhost:631/printers/Boomaga the Boomaga printer was shown 'busy' not 'idle'. I did remove Boomaga and re-add it. But maybe there is a more elegant method to solve the problem.

Thanks, tried your suggestion multiple time uninstalling and reinstalling and finding and deleting the boomaga folders and deleting the printer listed in cups and multiple combinations of all that via both the http page and the linux mint print manager and nothing gets boomaga working for me. :(
