Have you looked in the journal to see if there is more useful
information? Try using "journalctl -u cups -b" to filter. If there's
not enough info, you could try modifying /etc/cups/cupsd.conf to set
the
log level to debug and restart cups.
I posted a "SOLVED" followup - this fixed the problem:
dnf update cups-filters
systemctl restart cups
but thanks for the journalctl approach - I will add that to my
collection of READMEs!
Regards,
Phil.
