From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Description of problem: Windows XP machines submit jobs via a samba server, which is configured to talk to cups for printing. In the version of the package before this one, pstops stripped out any PJL in the submitted file and passed the PS on to the printer. This is no longer happening as of the most recent upgrade to the version listed above. Depending on the printer, the printer may "wake up", but nothing is ever printed. In other cases, the printer does nothing. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cups-1.1.17-13.3.16 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. configure samba to use cups for printing (printcap name=cups, printing=cups) 2. upgrade to most recent cups rpm 3. submit job from windows host 4. Observe as the printer spins up, then goes back to sleep. Actual Results: Printer spins up, then goes back to sleep. Nothing is printed. Expected Results: Print job prints successfully Additional info: We confirmed, in the last version of cups, that pstops was doing the right thing by stopping one of the queues, and then sending a job there. Upon inspection of the file in the queue, one could tell things were working as expected. Doing the same thing with this most recent version shows that the PJL is not being stripped out, and the printers choke on it.
Please confirm the last known good version-release.
Last known good version is cups-1.1.17-13.3.13:1
