Package: cups
Version: 1.3.10-1
Severity: important
Hi,
Since last cups upgrade in testing (from 1.3.8 to 1.3.10) I cannot print
anymore on some printers.
Cups is running on my laptop (running current testing). I used to print for
ages to 2 printers (OCE 3165 and Apple LaserWriter 8500, reached through lpd)
at work and 1 printer (HP PSC2355, reached through ipp) at home.
Here is my slightly edited printers.conf
<Printer Tertial>

Printing at home (through ipp) is OK.
Printing at work (through lpd) is broken in different ways according to
printers.
Before printing, my access_log has those three lines :
localhost - - [26/May/2009:07:32:39 +0200] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 180 Get-Jobs client-error-bad-request
localhost - - [26/May/2009:10:53:19 +0200] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 180 Get-Jobs client-error-bad-request
localhost - - [26/May/2009:10:53:23 +0200] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 266 CUPS-Get-Printers successful-ok
When sent a job, OCE printers prints an error page with:
Error identification undefined
Offending Command Error:
Not much helpful
After printing on OCE 3165, here are the lines added to /etc/cups/access_log:
localhost - - [26/May/2009:11:27:10 +0200] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 418 CUPS-Get-Printers successful-ok
localhost - - [26/May/2009:11:27:10 +0200] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 418 CUPS-Get-Classes successful-ok
localhost - - [26/May/2009:11:27:10 +0200] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 75 CUPS-Get-Default client-error-not-found
localhost - - [26/May/2009:11:27:11 +0200] "POST /printers/Tertial HTTP/1.1" 200 799 Print-Job successful-ok
localhost - - [26/May/2009:11:27:11 +0200] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 180 Get-Jobs client-error-bad-request
localhost - - [26/May/2009:11:27:12 +0200] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 180 Get-Jobs client-error-bad-request
and error_log:
E [26/May/2009:11:27:12 +0200] [Job 155] pdftops filter exited with status 1!
and at last page_log:
Tertial pillot 155 [26/May/2009:11:27:12 +0200] 1 1 - localhost
Printing on Apple LW8500 is not nearly desperating. The page is printed rotated
90° clockwise. I tried changing page orientation in printing dialog with no
success.
here are the lines added to /etc/cups/access_log:
localhost - - [26/May/2009:11:29:30 +0200] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 418 CUPS-Get-Printers successful-ok

localhost - - [26/May/2009:11:29:38 +0200] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 180 Get-Jobs client-error-bad-request
Nothing is logged in error_log nor page_log after printing on Apple LW.
I tried to recreate the printers with no success, trying different ppd (I even
tried a generic ps ppd on the Apple which resulted in job blocking the queue -
did not investigated this much since this was not an option anyway).
This behavior is constant whatever the application from which I print:
command-line lpr, OpenOffice, Okular, Kwrite...
Any help would be very welcomed !!!
