Meramente no es una soluci\u00f3n, solo una identificaci\u00f3n del responsable, del paquete conflictivo y evidentemente si no es de uso diario, puede ser una soluci\u00f3n eliminarlo.<\/p>\n

el error sale en cups al agregar o intentar agregar una impresora<\/p>\n

Unable to get list of printer drivers
\nsucess<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Como uso arch, el primer lugar que consulte para arreglarlo fue el propio wiki https:\/\/wiki.archlinux.org\/index.php\/CUPS donde acotan<\/p>\n

\nNote:<\/p>\n

hplip depends on foomatic-db-engine which prevents the drivers list from appearing when a printer is added to CUPS via the web user interface (following error : \u00abUnable to get list of printer drivers\u00bb). Possible workarounds:<\/p>\n

Either: Install hplip first, then retrieve the PPD file that matches your printer from \/usr\/share\/ppd\/HP\/. Next, remove hplip entirely as well as any unnecessary dependencies. Finally, install the printer manually using the CUPS web UI, selecting the PPD file you retrieved, and then re-install hplip. After a reboot, you should have a fully working printer.
\n Or: Remove hplip, foomatic-db and foomatic-db-engine along with any unnecessary dependencies. Reinstall hplip and restart CUPS. Install your printer using the CUPS web UI, which should now be able to find the drivers automatically. No reboot needed.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

osea, responsabilizan a foomatic y piden que lo elimines… pues no es cierto, el responsable es gutenprint<\/strong><\/p>\n

para que desaparezca el error, en arch lo \u00fanico que hice fue eliminarlo<\/p>\n


\n#pacman -Rs gutenprint
\n#systemctl restart org.cups.cupsd
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

Para mi es indispensable foomatic, ya que mis impresoras son hp, y gutenprint solo lo utilizo desde gimp (raramente), y todo funciona bien sin gutenprint instalado. Viendo el error en internet le echan la culpa a hlip, a todo los paquetes de foomatic, y por lo mismo, casi todas las recomendaciones son desisntalarlos… el error lo crea gutenprint y ya le mande una nota a sus desarrolladores (por favor, insistan) para que lo arreglen.<\/p>\n

si quieren probar la soluci\u00f3n falsa, pueden darle<\/p>\n

#pacman -R foomatic-db foomatic-db-engine foomatic-filters hplip<\/code><\/p>\n

y dejar solo a gutenprint, que es lo que encontr\u00e9 en la mayor\u00eda de las p\u00e1ginas que consult\u00e9<\/p>\n

insisto, el conflicto lo crea gutenprint, al momento de escribir esto instalada la versi\u00f3n gutenprint-5.2.10-1 de arch, el error me apareci\u00f3 al actualizar e impide ver la lista de impresoras<\/p>\n\n
