Description Tim Waugh 2007-01-16 14:00:01 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #222639 +++

Description of problem:
Attempting to print a photo from gthumb (or other photo-viewing apps) results in
the printer doing nothing. The print job is reported as 'processing' in CUPS,
and then eventually just says stopped, with no error message or printer activity.

Printing with the C4180 on A4 paper works fine from the printconf testpage, from
the hp-toolbox testpage (which includes a color photo), and from Firefox.
Printing to photo paper using using the printer's memory card reader (i.e.
computer not involved) works fine. Scanning works fine.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cups-1.2.7-1.5.fc6
hplip-1.6.10-1.fc6.4
foomatic-3.0.2-39.1.fc6
gthumb-2.7.8-3.fc6

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. gthumb
2. (select photo)
3. File->Print
4. Paper Details tab->Paper size->Custom->Width:4 inch Height:6 inch (but same
deal for selecting Postcard)
5. Layout tab->Center on page, 100% scaling
6. Print
7. Printer->Photosmart_C4100
8. Paper tab->Paper Size->Photo/4x6 inch index card
9. Print
  
Actual results:
foomatic-rip does something (visible in 'top') briefly
print job appears in CUPS and says 'stopped'
no printer activity

Expected results:
Photo to be printed on photo paper.

Additional info:
Relevant output of '/usr/sbin/lpinfo -v':
direct hal
direct hp:/usb/Photosmart_C4100_series?serial=MY65CB919404J7

Relevant output of 'lpstat -s':

hal:///org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_3f0_5711_MY65CB919404J7_if1_printer_MY65CB919404J7

This problem occurred both before and after setting up the printer with hp-setup.

Note this output is from a patched 'check' script that fixes hp-check falling
over with a traceback.

What does 'lpstat -t' say?

Tried this from gqview:
1. File->Print...
2. Layout->Source:Image Layout:One Image per page Image size: 100%
3. Text->(all unchecked)
4. Paper->Format:Photo 6x4 Units:inches Orientation:Portrait Margins all 0
5. Printer->Destination:Custom printer Custom printer: lpr -P Photosmart_C4100
DPI:unlimited
6. Print
('top' shows 'foomatic-rip' running and briefly 'gs')

The printer display says 'Paper size or type incorrect, press OK to cancel job'
Doing so spits out the photo paper without printing.

The pstops filter is giving this error:

E [16/Jan/2007:00:20:57 +1030] [Job 13] Bad %%BoundingBox: comment seen!

Please edit /etc/foomatic/filter.conf and add a line at the end:

debug: 1

Then submit your print job again and attach the resulting /tmp/foomatic-rip.ps
file here.  I would also like to see /tmp/foomatic-rip.log.  Thanks.

/var/log/cups/error_log (debug)

This time I've turned on the debug loglevel in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf, reloaded
cups and tried to print. First from gthumb (until 22:39) and then from gqview.
(Note the gs core dump for the gthumb attempt.) With gqview the printer
complained about incorrect paper size again, and also printed some garbage text
on the photo paper, at which point I turned off the printer to get it to stop.

Tried printing a photo from KView and got slightly further.
Actions:
1. File->Print
2. Image Settings-> Fit image and center image checked
3. Properties
4. General-> Orientation:Landscape Page Size:Photo/6x4 inch index card
5. Margins-> Use custom margins (all 0)
6. OK
7. Print

This prints albeit with borders (top:3mm bot:3mm right:9mm left:8mm), and very
poor quality (obvious pixellation/aliasing and dithering). The quality is much
worse than using the printer in stand-alone mode printing from a memory card.

Comment 1 Tim Waugh 2007-01-16 14:02:47 UTC
*This* bug report is about the gs crash shown in attachment id=145681
(/var/log/cups/error_log).

Is this reproducible?  If you print a file from gthumb, can you cause this gs
crash to happen every time?  If so, I would like the /tmp/foomatic-rip.ps file
for a print attempt from gthumb that resulted in a gs crash.

Comment 2 Tim Wegener 2007-01-17 12:04:17 UTC
This is always reproducible.
