Please attach the output of 'printconf-tui --Xexport', taking care to replace
any passwords it might contain.

I will also need to see the output of '/usr/sbin/alternatives --display print'.

Comment 4 Tim Waugh 2003-10-17 09:10:16 UTC
If there is a particular document you can use to trigger this behaviour, I would
be grateful if you could do the following:

1. Edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf (as root) and change the LogLevel line to say:

LogLevel debug2

2. Reset the error log file by typing this (including the '>') at the bash prompt:

>/var/log/cups/error_log

3. Restart CUPS using: service cups restart

4. Print the document as before.

When multiple copies have been printed, please attach the
/var/log/cups/error_log file to this report.  Thanks.

Incidentally, which application are you printing from, or doesn't it make a
difference?

Comment 7 Tim Waugh 2003-10-20 10:38:16 UTC
Please fetch these packages:

ftp://people.redhat.com/twaugh/tmp/cups-1.1.17-13.3.0.3.i386.rpm
ftp://people.redhat.com/twaugh/tmp/cups-libs-1.1.17-13.3.0.3.i386.rpm

and install them using 'rpm -Fvh cups-*'.

Let me know if that fixes the problem or not.  Thanks.
