There's something wrong with my Printer Simulator. Trying to print while running https://developer.apple.com/library/IOS/samplecode/Recipes_+_Printing/Introduction/Intro.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/DTS40011098-Intro-DontLinkElementID_2 will cause the following errors to appear in the Xcode console:

2014-03-26 17:23:47.563 Recipes[3455:3c07] Simulated\032Label\032Printer\032@\032[redacted]Mac\032mini._ipps._tcp.local.: Unable to connect to [redacted]-mac-mini.local.:8632: Bad file descriptor 2014-03-26 17:23:47.570 Recipes[3455:3c07] Simulated\032Label\032Printer\032@\032[redacted]Mac\032mini._ipps._tcp.local.: Connection is untrusted: Unable to establish a secure connection to host.

Here is what I have tried without success:

  • Reinstalling Xcode
  • debugging Bonjour connections
  • created a new user on the mac mini

What else could I try? Thanks!

Did you ever resolve this? I am getting the same error and the answer below did not resolve the issue. - picciano
Nope, I tried on a different machine and it worked. But on the machine with the original problem, I had to install handyPrint, which helps with printing to a PDF. - Victor Bogdan
Awesome suggestion/find. Thanks, Victor! - picciano

Deleting /private/var/tmp/printd fixed it for me. I found that answer in AirPrint Connection Refused Error.

In case this helps someone. If your printer simulator stops working, see my answer over here: AirPrint Connection Refused Error -- short version, make sure you only have 1 active network connection to your network at once (popping out the ethernet worked for me)
