And this happens also with boomaga already launched cleanly from konsole. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): I am pretty sure this last worked before i updated amongst other things cups 2023-05-25 boomaga have not been updated. I see no problems printing to my real printer nor pdf. Note this is not the same symptoms as in Bug 31859 - Boomaga sometimes crash when printing to it from some programs, i.e Okular Maybe I should try downgrading cups and related packages. The usual problem running cauldron: getting the previous versions... Beta 2 install iso ? Thierry: CUPS maintainer

Only cups package to have been updated since i think boomaga worked ok is lib64cups-filters1-1.28.16-6.mga9.x86_64.rpm That does not sound like a possible culprit to me.
On my Cauldron system, the only relevant packages updated recently are: cups-filters-1.28.16-6.mga9.x86_64 Dydd Sul 28 mis Mai 2023 21:32:49 lib64cups-filters1-1.28.16-6.mga9.x86_64 Dydd Sul 28 mis Mai 2023 21:32:47 but note: boomaga-3.0.0-6.mga9.x86_64 Dydd Sul 21 mis Mai 2023 16:21:36 Trying to print to Boomaga, nothing happens.

Thank you Lewis. That boomaga was installed here already at fresh install beta2 + updates during install. Probably I remembered wrong about it ever working on *this* system. But it is strange difference you (but not me) get in your log "Successfully activated service 'org.boomaga'", (and later it crash)
I think this issue should be reported upstream, I'm not the boomaga developer so I can't do more for this.
Searching internet, I found similar reports. Upstream seem to not have time anymore, since years :( https://github.com/Boomaga/boomaga/issues/117 at a straight question, https://github.com/Boomaga/boomaga/issues/123 two weeks ago. Darn, this "intermediate printer" is so useful. Good thing is that developer at least answers :) So IF someone wants to step up and take it on... lets hope! Boomaga is still working in updated Mageia 8. Tedious workaround: print to pdf, open in a pdf page shuffler (we have some packaged), then print.

Now I get really confused: It works perfectly on my laptop. That install have never had printing installed. Originally installed from mga9 beta 1 classic i think, then updated, used sparsely. Now I: 1) Installed boomaga package 2) opened MCC > Hardware > Printer -> it installed packages, then boomaga icon showed up used that icon to print test page: boomaga popped up and showed it! 3) rebooted 4) started firefox, which i let open a pdf, print to boomaga: perfect! Go figure... Edited Errata.
After reboot of the problematic system in Comment 0, it works again. (Print from Kolourpaint -> boomaga popped up showing the picture) Maybe some state of DBUS, CUPS, whatever needed to be reset? Edited Errata to suggest reboot. @Lewis: does rebooting help on your system?
