FYI, I forward the mail sent by Arne de Laat on 3 Dec 2013:
Hello all,
In the e-mail from Wim when he started this group, he mentioned that there were some problems with printing in OS X 10.9:
From: Wim Heubers w.heubers@nikhef.nl
We have run in the following print problems after upgrading to OS-X 10.9:
- The existing problem with the printer status jobs still exists, but
now you can not remove these jobs yourself anymore, which results in a unwanted delay before the print output becomes available in the printer system. We have contacted the supplier of the printer software.
-- CT Beheer Wim
I know of a way to address problem #2. These status jobs can be made visible using the CUPS web interface. To enable the interface, simply open your Terminal and enter:
cupsctl WebInterface=yes
If you ever want to disable it, simply use the same command but with 'no'
The CUPS web interface can be reached in your browser via: http://localhost:631
The interesting page here is: http://localhost:631/jobs/
When you start a print job those 'status jobs' will be visible on that page
Cancel all the jobs with a size of 1k, the interface will ask for you username and password once. Once all those status jobs have been canceled your real job will start printing.
Thanks to dr. David Fokkema for figuring this out.
Greetings, Arne

Hi,
I had the same problem. Reinstalling the drivers worked for me, for follow-you printing.
The generic Postscript solution from Jeroen also worked great for me, for direct printing.
Cheers, Jacco

Hi,
I have installed the Nikhef printer (N2 for what it is worth) as a generic Postscript printer. That works without problems. I know that Gerhard had problems when installing the “proper” drivers.
Cheers Jeroen

I installed Maverick on my (office) miniMac and my MacBook Pro. It looks like printing does not show the two ‘halt’ jobs anymore, but the delay is still there, and can not be dropped……
Re-installing a printer does not help.
