Re: [Bug 1093643] Re: When printing PDF files, halfway trough printer restarts from first page with garbled text/colors

 

Pascal,

Yes, I'm still having problems with this printer.

I'm still using 12.04 LTS:

lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS
Release:    12.04

And using the latest cups:

apt-cache policy cups
cups:
   Geïnstalleerd: 1.5.3-0ubuntu8.6
   Kandidaat:     1.5.3-0ubuntu8.6
   Versietabel:
  *** 1.5.3-0ubuntu8.6 0

      1.5.2-9ubuntu1 0
         500 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 
Packages

I just tried to print 2 pages from a larger document. Text only. The 
first page repeats itself halfway a line (Top half of all the leters 
printed, botom half is missing and page restarts there). The second 
page, suposed to be printed on the other side of the paper 
(duplexNoTumble) was not printed at all.

I tried to copy the "eigenschappen van afdruktaak" (Job atributes? The 
lists starts with "atribute charset" and ends with "time-at-processing") 
but they are not selectable... If there is one you are particulairy 
interested in let me know.

In that same list there is the url http://localhost:631/jobs/638:

Description: 	Canon iP4200
Location: 	luke-linux
Driver: 	Canon PIXMA iP4200 - CUPS+Gutenprint (OpenPrinting LSB 3.2) 
v5.2.7 Simplified (color, 2-sided printing)
Connection: 	usb://Canon/iP4200?serial=<I removed my printers serial number>
Defaults: 	job-sheets=none, none media=iso_a4_210x297mm sides=one-sided


Is there any way to reset settings to default? If others are not having 
problems I guess it's something like that. (I tried removing the printer 
and reinstalling it - that did not help)

Is there any way to test this properly? Any output I should copy here 
for experts to debug?

Test page prints fine btw.

Best regards,
Lucas

Title:
  When printing PDF files, halfway trough printer restarts from first
  page with garbled text/colors

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When I print a PDF file, somewhere halfway in the printing process the
  printer restarts from page 1.

  On the pages already printed, colours don't look right. On the first
  page after it restarted printing, text is in the wrong font, on
  another place on the page then it should be, and colour isn't right
  either. Subsequent pages are OK.

  This happens each time I print a PDF file double sided. Might also
  occur when printing other files or single side, I have not tried that
  yet.

  3) What I expected to happen:
  The document to get printed from first to last page with colours and font and layout similar to the document displayed on screen. I'm really happy with my printed document.

  4) What happened instead:
  The document got printed, first few pages where OK except for colours, then the printing restarted from the first page, first page completely messed up, subsequent pages somewhat OK. Lots of paper wasted, and unhappy user.

  Added a picture of the most misprinted page, this is the first page of
  the document second time it is printed in the same print job. For
  comparison, it should look like
