Package: cups
Version: 1.5.2-5
Severity: important
Hello maintainers of cups Debian packages,
I am experiencing a very awkward issue.
After the 1.5.0-13 -> 1.5.2-5 upgrade, my printer (an HP LaserJet 1320
connected via parallel port) printed a few pages and then printed
a page with the following error message:
ERROR:
timeout
OFFENDING COMMAND:
timeout
STACK:
-mark-
-mark-
-mark-
After that, I have no longer been able to print anything, not even
simple text files as in:
$ echo test | lpr
When I try, the printer does nothing (but sometimes the "printing" LED blinks)
and lpq says
$ lpq
lj is ready and printing
Rank Owner Job File(s) Total Size
active (null) 503 untitled 1024 bytes
but nothing happens for a long time, until I lprm the print job.
Since /var/log/cups/error_log says:
E [07/Mar/2012:21:40:23 +0100] Filter "oopstops" not found.
E [07/Mar/2012:21:40:23 +0100] Filter "hpgltops" not found.
E [07/Mar/2012:21:40:23 +0100] Filter "pstoraster" not found.
E [07/Mar/2012:21:40:23 +0100] Filter "pstoraster" not found.
W [07/Mar/2012:21:40:23 +0100] failed to CreateProfile: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown:The name org.freedesktop.ColorManager was not provided by any .service files
W [07/Mar/2012:21:40:23 +0100] failed to CreateDevice: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown:The name org.freedesktop.ColorManager was not provided by any .service files
I thought it could perhaps be bug #662025 and tried downgrading
foomatic-filters to version 4.0.9-1 (even though I had not upgraded it
recently...), but this didn't help.
I thought that maybe it needed colord (which I didn't install, as it is
only a recommendation, not a dependency, and pulls in many other packages
that I would rather avoid seeing on a headless box that should run a
print server and only a few other services): I tried installing colord
and its numerous dependencies, but this didn't help either.
I tried upgrading cups, cups-bsd, cups-client to 1.5.2-6 (currently
in unstable), but no joy.
If I downgrade to the previously working version:
# cd /var/cache/apt/archives/
# dpkg -i cups_1.5.0-13_i386.deb cups-bsd_1.5.0-13_i386.deb cups-client_1.5.0-13_i386.deb cups-common_1.5.0-13_all.deb libcupsdriver1_1.5.0-13_i386.deb cups-ppdc_1.5.0-13_i386.deb libcups2_1.5.0-13_i386.deb libcupscgi1_1.5.0-13_i386.deb libcupsimage2_1.5.0-13_i386.deb libcupsmime1_1.5.0-13_i386.deb libcupsppdc1_1.5.0-13_i386.deb
# dpkg --purge cups-filters libcupsfilters1
# dpkg --configure --pending
# dpkg-reconfigure cups
(enable raw and add parallel backend, that somehow got disabled)
I am again able to print text files and PDF files.
I have just pinned packages cups-common cups cups-ppdc libcups2 libcupscgi1 libcupsdriver1 libcupsimage2 libcupsmime1 libcupsppdc1 to version 1.5.0-13, but
I would of course like to use my printer with up-to-date cups packages!
Please help me to figure out what went wrong!
Thanks for your time.
