Description Andrew Meredith 2006-04-04 16:27:13 UTC
Description of problem:

HP Deskjet 5650 attached to HP print server using JetDirect. The first print job
from a given RHEL machine goes through, but the second never gets out. lpstst -t
shows:

 "Print file sent, waiting for printer to finish..."


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

cups-1.1.22-0.rc1.9.10
(and cups-1.1.22-15.4 on an FC3 box)

How reproducible:

Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Print two documents
  
Actual results:

Two documents

Expected results:

One document and a frozen printer

Additional info:

This printer/print server pair works perfectly well against an XP Pro desktop
and used to work fine on earlier versions of RHEL and FC

Comment 1 Tim Waugh 2006-05-02 12:11:39 UTC
Please edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and change the 'LogLevel' line to say:

  LogLevel debug2

Then stop cups with:

  /sbin/service cups stop

Empty out the error_log file with:

  >/var/log/cups/error_log

Then start cups again:

  /sbin/service cups start

Print two files to the printer, and then please attach /var/log/cups/error_log.
 Thanks.
