From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20021003 Description of problem: If while printing, the printer runs out of paper, that print job and all other print jobs will be lost after about 30 minutes. This is regardless of what I have in /etc/lpd.conf. With the following uncommented lines in my lpd.conf, the print jobs continue to be dropped. db=5 lf=/var/log/lpd.log mail_operator_on_error=root mc#128 send_failure_action=retry send_job_rw_timeout=0 send_query_rw_timeout=0 send_try=0 According to man lpd.conf, the above '0' for each field is supposed to be infinite timeouts, infinite retrys, etc. One of my printers in /etc/printcap looks like this: lp:\ :ml#0:\ :mx#0:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/lp/lp.acct:\ :sh:\ :lp=/dev/lp0:\ :lpd_bounce=true:\ :if=/usr/share/printconf/util/mf_wrapper: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): LPRng-3.8.9-6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. edit /etc/lpd.conf, setting send_try=0, and send_failure_action=retry 2. restart lpd with "service lpd restart" 3. print a multi-page job 4. make the printer run out of paper while it is printing 5. wait 30 minutes Actual Results: print job is removed from queue without finishing Expected Results: print job should continue trying to print "forever", or until paper is placed into the printer... whichever comes first Additional info: All of our printers are setup as "Assume Unknown data is text" and "Do not convert to postscript"
