ERROR: limitcheck OFFENDING COMMAND: imagemask

Once again, having just upgraded to Mac OS 10.15.4, attempting to print a PDF's from my bank, the printer spits out the error message above. Month's ago, I deleted something and it took care of the problem, but I don't recall just what I did. Can someone remind me?


Mac mini, macOS 10.15

Printer / AirPrint


Printers/scanners are typically the first causality in upgrading any OS.




If it is listed as AirPrint printer, delete the existing printer in

> System Preferences> Printers & Scanners, and add it again, select AirPrint.


Connect an AirPrint printer to a Wi-Fi network - Apple Support.

you can also try reset print system if necessary:

If you can't print from your Mac or iOS device - Apple Support


https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203343




If this fails you— from the browser interface you can interact with CUPS directly:


CUPS management http://localhost:631/admin/


if you see no interface then from the Terminal.app simply enter this command line, copy&paste :

cupsctl WebInterface=yes


and try again the local link.
