How about if you turn 'Ghostscript prefiltering' off? That seems to fix it. Does a config file at your end get updated as a result of this? Thanks. In theory this should be defaulting to off, but it looks like it gets reset to 2 in the config tool. Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thank you! Fedora Core 3 is not maintained anymore. Setting status to "INSUFFICIENT_DATA". If you can reproduce this bug in the current Fedora release please reopen this bug and assign it to the corresponding Fedora version. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050224 Firefox/1.0.1 Fedora/1.0.1-1.3.1 Description of problem: I have a Lexmark Optra R+ printer. When I try to print a file using CUPS and lpr, the printer chugs for a while but no paper comes out. Instead of printing to the printer I print to a file to give me the resulting Postscript. (See the URL above.) If I lpr the ps file the printer churns but nothing comes out. If I cat the file to /dev/lp0 it comes out fine. Here is the content of /etc/cups/printers.conf (minus the comments) <DefaultPrinter ps600> Info Created by redhat-config-printer 0.6.x DeviceURI parallel:/dev/lp0 Location PostScript 600dpi State Idle Accepting Yes JobSheets none none QuotaPeriod 0 PageLimit 0 KLimit 0 </Printer> Here's the /etc/cups/lpoptions file Default ps600 cpi=12 lpi=7 page-bottom=36 page-left=36 page-right=36 page-top=36 scaling=100 wrap=true The info I get from system-config-printer says: queue name: name: ps600 Short description: Postscript 600dpi Queue type: Locally connected /dev/lp0 Lexmark Optra LaserPrinter Queue options: banner pages == none for both start and end of job Imageable Area: 36 36 36 36 Filter options: cpi 12 lpi 7 page-bottom 36 page-left 36 page-right 36 page-top 36 scaling 100 wrap true Printer driver: Lexmark Optra R+ Postscript Driver options: Convert Text to Postscript Effective Filter Locale == C Double sided printing "Not capable" Ghostscript prefiltering "Convert to PS level 2" Page size "US Letter" Resolution "Printer Default" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): foomatic-3.0.2-3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. lpr 474617B7d01.ps 2.
