User information is disabled (while using PHP Curl) - php

Question

I can access a web page when I type its URL in my browser. However, while using curl to access the details of that web page, I get the message on screen
User information is disabled.
This operation cannot be accepted. User certification is invalid or date expired.
Update page.
I can access the details of my network printer(Canon IR3570) by typing in the IP of that printer in my browser. This opens up the remote UI. However, it doesn't seem to work with curl.
This is my code in PHP curl
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,"URL");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:13.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/13.0.1');
$result= curl_exec($ch);
echo $result;
curl_close ($ch);
What could be the reason for such a message?

Answer 1

Where's UserAgent set? They may filtrate requests.

Answer 2

try adding:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION ,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "User-Agent Mozilla/5.0");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER ,1); // DO NOT RETURN HTTP HEADERS

Answer 3

This isn't CURL but it works in Visual Basic 2012 - one of the headers solved it for me
Sub Main()
Dim web_client As New System.Net.WebClient
Dim baseDate As DateTime = New DateTime(1970, 1, 1)
Dim diff As TimeSpan = DateTime.Now - baseDate
web_client.Headers.Add("Accept", "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8")
web_client.Headers.Add("Accept-Charset", "ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.3")
web_client.Headers.Add("Accept-Encoding", "gzip, deflate, sdch")
web_client.Headers.Add("Accept-Language", "en-US,en;q=0.8")
web_client.Headers.Add("Cookie", "iR = 1711753823")
web_client.Headers.Add("Host", "172.23.100.14")
web_client.Headers.Add("Referer", "http://172.23.100.14/jlp.cgi?Flag=Html_Data&LogType=0&Dummy=" & diff.Milliseconds)
web_client.Headers.Add("User-Agent", "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.31 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/26.0.1410.64 Safari/537.31")
web_client.DownloadFile("http://172.23.100.14/pprint.csv?Flag=Csv_Data&LogType=0&Dummy=" & diff.Milliseconds, "P:\Transfer\mstavers\printlogs\" & Format(Now, "yyyy-MM-dd-hh-mm-ss") & ".csv")
End Sub
