Cups printing

Lizzy55 · 02-20-2015, 02:05 PM

I am trying to reprint pages from 16th feb via local host cups - it does not give me an option to reprint from cups page.
I sent a command via iMac terminal and it came back with answer
No files to print.??? Can anyone help I need to reprint these pages!!!!!
Thanks
Liz

Perhaps opening http://localhost:631/jobs?which_jobs=completed and pressing the "Reprint job" button beside the date of the job you need to reprint would work.

Welcome to LinuxQuestions

Probably not. The default value for PreserveJobFiles is no which means they are deleted once the job is completed or cancelled. If job files are preserved and you have exceeded the max job value since 16th Feb then the file was probably deleted.

I tried
lp -i Samsung_SCX_3400_Series-105 -H restart
got the following message Job #105 cannot be restarted - no files. ?
if i can't reprint from cups would the files be anywhere else on my mac???

It depends. What did you print?
