ImageClass LBP612Cdw says it will, but won't print from RHEL 5 using CUPS

Hi, folks,

     I've got this printer in someone's office and am attempting to make it work from an old RHEL 5 machine. When I try a test print via CUPS, it claims to have successfully completed--but nothing comes out of the printer!

     I'm reaching my wit's end! Any thoughts on what's going on?

Thanks,

Hi, folks,

     I've got this ImageClass LBP612Cdw in someone's office and am attempting to make it work from an old RHEL 5.11 64-bit machine. When I try a test print via CUPS 1.3.7, it claims to have successfully completed--but nothing comes out of the printer! I've installed everything that comes with the UFRII driver, as well as foomatic 3.0.2 and system-config-printer 0.7.32.10. I can't find gutenprint in the Red Hat repos or in the usual places I look.

     The printer works fine as a networked printer from the Windows PC in the office, to which I am told it is not hard-wired. There is no sign of trouble in the logs, which are set to DEBUG level.

     I can make another trip to that office at almost any time if someone has troubleshooting steps for me to take. In other words:

     I'm reaching my wit's end! Any thoughts on what's going on?

Thanks,

Would this post be better under the Wireless/Networking thread? I'm not sure. I'm happy for it to be in whichever place is best.
