Description Peter Åstrand 2010-05-03 19:10:31 UTC 
Description of problem:

My CM1312nfi printer was working fine until last week. Now, on most prints, the generated data file is zero bytes. The printer starts blinking, but eventually discards the job. The CUPS log says:

'D [03/May/2010:21:02:53 +0200] [Job 124] prtGeneralCurrentLocalization type is 0, expected 2!',
'D [03/May/2010:21:02:53 +0200] [Job 124] lpd_command 02 lp',
'D [03/May/2010:21:02:53 +0200] [Job 124] Sending command string (4 bytes)...',
'D [03/May/2010:21:02:53 +0200] [Job 124] Reading command status...',
'D [03/May/2010:21:02:53 +0200] [Job 124] lpd_command returning 0',

The actual problem here is that pstoraster (ghostscript) is failing to convert the job to CUPS raster format:

D [03/May/2010:21:02:49 +0200] [Job 124] Error: /limitcheck in --%op_show_continue--

D [03/May/2010:21:02:49 +0200] [Job 124] GPL Ghostscript 8.71: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1

Not entirely sure why that is.  That causes the hpcups filter to fail just because it has no input file to read:

D [03/May/2010:21:02:49 +0200] [Job 124] prnt/hpcups/HPCupsFilter.cpp 485: cupsRasterOpen failed, fd = 0
D [03/May/2010:21:02:49 +0200] PID 6389 (/usr/lib/cups/filter/hpcups) stopped with status 1!

Later, the SNMP support in CUPS just notes an oddity in the printer's Printer MIB support:

D [03/May/2010:21:02:53 +0200] [Job 124] prtGeneralCurrentLocalization type is 0, expected 2!

That part is harmless.

So the real question is why the pstoraster filter failed.

Will need to try to reproduce this and find out what's going on.
Comment 4 Bug Zapper 2010-06-28 15:44:16 UTC 
Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
