Description of problem: Printing to a CUPS printer backed by foomatic-rip (HP DJ720c for example) fails and returns the error "Unable to determine number of pages, page count: -1" in the journal. This includes trying to print using CUPS' built-in "Print Test Page" function. This started happening some time in the last month or two and it always fails now. I'm guessing it happened after installing ghostscript 9.26-1.4.mga6 This appears to be the same issue as https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/62251 and https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=926576 although my Ghostscript version is 9.26, but the latest mga6 version appears to include a bunch of security patches from upstream that likely cause this problem. I was able to fix the problem on my machine by building foomatic-rip from cups-filters-1.22.5 (which requires a newer qpdf than is in mga6 so I built qpdf-8.4.2 and linked it statically) and replacing the binary in /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.13.4-2.2 How reproducible: It happens when printing from all tested applications. Printing to a different, non-foomatic printer works fine. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Choose a Foomatic printer at http://localhost:631/printers/ and select "Print Test Page" 2. Note the error: stopped "Filter failed" 3. Check the journal for more detailed errors: sudo journalctl -u cups -b

Yes, the update to ghostscript-9.26 bug 24786 seem to have removed some deprecated functions so some printers do not work anymore. I have a similar problem but had no time to dig into it yet: https://forums.mageia.org/en/viewtopic.php?p=75161#p75161 I also have the same problem trying in mga7. Have you tried?

This is probably the same issue as bug 24786 comment 7. I haven't tried this in mga7 but since it contains cups-filters-1.22.5 I wouldn't expect it to be affected.

Well as i reported in c2 it was in mga7 too. The solution came when printer manufacturer finally got around to updating the driver to not use the deprecated functions. So the bug was several main printer manufacturers being far behind in their driver developent.

When the printer manufacturer eventually updated the driver to remove the obsolete functionalities, the problem was solved. It was also in mga7 in c2. https://cookieclicker2.io

The cheap writers also gave plagiarised or refreshed essays that don't work in universities. They might also fail to https://ukbestessays.org/ukwritings-review or deliver late, which can determine the student's final grades. So even if a budget is a constraint, it is always wise to avoid investing money in cheap essay writing services
