IP printers broken

Tahoe broke my IP printers

I have a Mac at work and for years have been able to print to various Kyocera printers using their IPs and adding them under "HP Jetdirect." I just upgraded to Tahoe and now that functionality is totally broken. My computer can still see the printers and their supply levels, but now they just stay in the queue in the printing app. It says "Stopped, \[my username\]. "Filter" failed, 1 page, 1 copy."

Any ideas how to get this working again?

exactly the same happened for me, I downloaded / installed the latest Kyocera drivers (macOS 12 or later)

Download Center | KYOCERA Document Solutions

version 2024.05.16
when installing it stated it was referred to as "Kyocera OS X 10.9+ Web build 2024.05.16.pkg"
when installed, the printer driver version shows as 10.4
the latest install made no difference, LPD still gives the Stopped, "Filter" failed message.
quite impressive that it has upported macOS 10.9+, but obviously need a new version for tahoe.

they had other installers, "Web Installer 2.0.15.0.dmg", but it ends up installing the same driver

This happened to me as well for a Kyocera ECOSYS P6035cdn printer. I am using a 16-inch MacBook Pro M4 Max 2024 that I just upgraded to macOS 26. The recommendation to perform a clean install did not resolve the issue. Instead, I removed the printer with the "filter failed" error. I then re-added it using the printer's IP address, used LPD for the protocol, and chose "Select Software" for the driver. In my case, I searched for the driver titled "Kyocera Generic Color A4 PCL" and selected it. Once added, I sent a test print to confirm the new configuration works. Good luck!🤞

thanks Jonny, that worked for me as well and gives me basic printing functionality.
I don't get access to features (Kycocera TASKalfa 5054ci KPDL) like double-sided or alternate paper-feeds but it's a start.
Interestingly, I tried Kyocera Generic PDF and it failed with the filter error as well (as it Generic Postscript, Generic PCL).
Hopefully Kyocera or Apple fix this up soon.
