Hi, Since the recent CUPS package (1.3.9-14) upgrade in sid, a Samsung ML-1740 stopped printing from the local machine. Let me explain.
- I've had 2 printers in my local machine managed through CUPS: the model above, and a Canon PIXMA MP150. Both printers set up in CUPS to be shared across my home network, and were working perfectly for years, printing from any computer in the network. When adding the Samsung printer to the CUPS server, there wasn't an option for a driver for this exact model, but the one for ML-1750 worked without problems. For the Canon printer, I had to install the Gutenprint drivers (cups-driver-gutenprint) package, to make it work properly. - Since the upgrade, the Samsung ML-1740 no longer prints from my local machine, but strangely, it does print from other computers in the network. The Canon printer continues to print fine from anywhere in the network. - Checking the logs, jobs sent to the Samsung ML-1740 from my local machine don't show any errors, but the server appears to be unable to determine the number of pages. Below are log entries for a file printed from local machine, and from another computer in the net: +------------+------+---------+------+-------+-----------------------+-------+ |ID |Name |User |Size |Pages |State |Control| +------------+------+---------+------+-------+-----------------------+-------+ |Samsung-1087|fileA |netuser |2030k |1 |completed at Fri Feb 20| | | | | | | |15:11:09 2009 | | +------------+------+---------+------+-------+-----------------------+-------+ |Samsung-1085|fileA |localuser|2030k |Unknown|completed at Fri Feb 20| | | | | | | |15:07:17 2009 | | +------------+------+---------+------+-------+-----------------------+-------+ Does anybody have any idea what may be happening, or see the same problem with the same printer? I'm copying my /etc/cups/cupsd.conf below, in case it's useful. Thanks in advance. ---<--------------------cut here---------------start------------------->--- LogLevel warning SystemGroup lpadmin # Allow remote access Port 631 Listen /var/run/cups/cups.sock # Enable printer sharing and shared printers.
