Description Michael Schwendt 2014-12-01 11:01:25 UTC 
Tried to add a local printer running on a Windows server. Did it the same way I've done it with Fedora 20 and older:

# system-config-printer 
No ID match for device smb://192.168.0.190/SamsungM:
MFG:Generic;MDL:Printer;DES:Generic Printer;
Using lsb/usr/cupsfilters/textonly.ppd (status: 3)
Caught non-fatal exception.  Traceback:
File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/newprinter.py", line 3853, in getNPPPD
    ppd = cups.PPD(f)
RuntimeError: ppdOpenFile failed
Continuing anyway..

Dialog tells:
CUPS server error
There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'server-error-internal-error'.



$ rpm -q system-config-printer
system-config-printer-1.5.4-1.fc21.x86_64

I can't really tell much from your description. In particular, I don't know at what point you saw the 'CUPS server error' message, or whether it is related to the (non-fatal) cups.PPD exception.

Please run 'system-config-printer --debug &>output.txt'.

Please detail each step you follow for adding the printer: i.e. each thing you click on or type.

Finally, please attach output.txt.

   Samsung ML-1610 which is closest/compatible to ML-1640
5. click "Apply"

Thanks. This looks like it has the same root cause as bug #1163731.
