Description Joachim Backes 2011-01-17 07:18:10 UTC
Description of problem:

My printer: Lexmark e120n (network laser printer), configured with Foomatic/pxlmono.

Having partially extrem long times in F14 until a spooled file print is
performed, or nothing is printed.

Sometimes, I have to print pdf or ps files generated by firefox, or
printing some websites themselves. I hear some noises of my laser
printer, and the notificaton area shows some printer activity, the network shows a lot of traffic, but nothing is printed (even if I wait tens of minutes).

If taking a snapshot of the info to be printed into some .png or .gif
file by the "import" (part of imagemagick)  command and importing that
gif file inside of OO and printing that OO document, it is printed immediately.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
foomatic-4.0.5-1.fc14.i686

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.configure the printer with system-config-printer 
2.Take the driver: Lexmark E120n Foomatic/pxlmono [en]
3.
  
Actual results:
Nothing is printed, or printing is extremely delayed, with a lot of network traffic.

Expected results:
Printing starts imediately

Additional info:

Configuring the printer (system-config-printer) with Foomatic/ljet4 [en] seems to be a workaround.

Seems similar to bug #661814.

Can you attach an output from printing troubleshooter ?
