[Bug 1351351] Re: Printer does print only after reconnect

 

First I want to point out that I had to reinstall my system a week ago.
While I still have trouble to print its not the same syptom it was
before. Now I am not able to print anything anymore, independent from
when I connect the printer to the computer. However, I have tried all
the modifications you mentioned  and did not have success with any of
them.

Would you suggest to open a new bug with current log files or should I
attach them here?

Title:
  Printer does print only after reconnect

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I use a USB printer Samsung ML-1640. Since the latest ubuntu upgrade
  the printer does not start to print anymore when I send a print job
  via libreoffice or evince. The printer queue says its processing the
  print job but nothing happens. By trial and error I found that it is
  possible to print when I follow  a certain sequence:

  1. The printer is switched on but not connected to the PC
  2. I open the document and send a print job
  3. About 4s later I connect the printer to the PC
  4. The printer prints 

  To print another document I have to repeat steps 1 to 4 again.
