Description Bastien Nocera 2005-07-22 13:45:36 UTC
After configuring two printer as a class, schedule 10 printjobs one page each.

1-2 minutes before printing pull the plug on say printer 2.

Start printing 1st job get sent to printer 1 and print second job gets sent to
printer 2 which is not there

It doesn't print as printer 2 isn't plugged in and sits there waiting. All the
remaining jobs getting sent to printer 1.

The problem is acknowledged upstream:

Judging from the upstream reaction, I guess Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 is
affected too.
