[Bug 872483] Re: laser printer only prints first job correct

 

Is there a mechanism in place which will cause this "fix" to be removed
when the underlying kernel issue is repaired?

Resetting the usb port between jobs is an undesirable hack (e.g. slows
down printing) so should go away as soon as possible.

  laser printer only prints first job correct

Bug description:
  please also refer to this bug - this seems to be exactly my issue and does not seem to be solved.

  ProblemType: Bug
  DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 - all updates as of today applied.

  I followed https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems according
  to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/foomatic-
  db/+bug/855412/comments/20

  I printed two copies of the same document, since this forces the error
  easily.

  The content under /var/spool/cups/d... look fine - see attached files.

  after cupsenable <PRINTER> the first copy comes out fine - the second
  as random character - I stopped after some pages.

  The test is with Samsung ML-2250 Series (SPL II) - which worked fine under all previous versions of Ubuntu
  Samsung ML-2250 Foomatic/pxlmono (recommended) generates basically the same result.
