Thank you, my wife couldn’t print for a few days with her MacBook. With your instructions it took less than 5 minutes to get the printer working.

Thank you! You might want to tell some that a right click is press-and-hold-control-key and then click the mouse while hovering over the printer icon.

Wonderful write-up. Worked perfectly! As a newbie with printing on OS X this was very helpful.

Thanks a million! Had never seen this error before. Probably a Unix permissions issue?

We had a similar issue on two office computers running 10.6, except we encountered it after we updated the printer driver. Solution worked fine.
