--- Begin Message ---Package: cups Version: 1.5.0-16 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, First of all, I would like to apologize if this is not the right package; I think it is, but I'm really not sure. Maybe something in the kernel. In the last 2-3 days, it seems every operation that tries to access my Xerox Phaser 3121 printer, which is connected through the parallel port, gets stuck and never completes; I get a process on the host that looks like this in "ps axuww": lp 9324 99.9 0.0 5732 1104 ? R 07:57 268:48 parallel:/dev/lp0 1547 sigal Cooks 1 TonerDensity=3 Duplex=None number-up=2 number-up-layout=btlr PageSize=A4 Resolution=300dpi InputSlot=Auto EconoMode=0 noJamRecovery Altitude=LOW MediaType=OFF PowerSave=5 job-uuid=urn:uuid:d8331db0-edd9-3d65-72d5-81b8567a00e8 job-originating-host-name=localhost time-at-creation=1328334501 time-at-processing=1328335027 The only way I found to solve this is to "lprm" the print jobs, bring down the cups service, and "sudo kill -9" the process. If I just bring down cups, the process stays up (also does not respond to SIGTERM); if I just kill the process, cups respawns it; if I just bring down cups and the process (leaving jobs in the queue), cups restarts it as soon as it is brought back up. Some of the time -- can't be sure -- I've gotten error messages printed by the printer, complaining about a timeout. Until yesterday, I was using the older, Samsung ML-1710 driver from Foomatic/gdi; I switched to Splix with the actual Xerox model, but it made no difference. Another printer, connected via USB, continues to function normally. Thanks for all your good work, Shai. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-1-686-pae (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages cups depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu1 ii bc 1.06.95-2 ii cups-client 1.5.0-16 ii cups-common 1.5.0-16 ii cups-filters 1.0~b1-3 ii cups-ppdc 1.5.0-16 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.41 ii ghostscript 9.04~dfsg-3 ii libavahi-client3 0.6.30-6 ii libavahi-common3 0.6.30-6 ii libc6 2.13-26 ii libcups2 1.5.0-16 ii libcupscgi1 1.5.0-16 ii libcupsimage2 1.5.0-16 ii libcupsmime1 1.5.0-16 ii libcupsppdc1 1.5.0-16 ii libdbus-1-3 1.4.16-1 ii libgcc1 1:4.6.2-12 ii libgnutls26 2.12.16-1 ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.10+dfsg~beta1-2 ii libkrb5-3 1.10+dfsg~beta1-2 ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.28-1.1 ii libpam0g 1.1.3-7 ii libpaper1 1.1.24+nmu1 ii libslp1 1.2.1-8 ii libstdc++6 4.6.2-12 ii libusb-1.0-0 2:1.0.9~rc3-3 ii lsb-base 3.2-28.1 ii poppler-utils 0.16.7-2+b1 ii procps 1:3.3.2-3 ii ssl-cert 1.0.28 Versions of packages cups recommends: ii avahi-daemon 0.6.30-6 ii colord 0.1.16-2 ii cups-driver-gutenprint 5.2.7-4 ii foomatic-filters 4.0.9-1 ii ghostscript-cups 9.04~dfsg-3 ii printer-driver-gutenprint [cups-driver-gutenprint] 5.2.7-4 Versions of packages cups suggests: ii cups-bsd 1.5.0-16 ii cups-pdf <none> ii foomatic-db 20111206-1 ii hplip 3.11.12-2 ii smbclient 2:3.6.3-1 ii udev 175-3 -- debconf information: cupsys/raw-print: true cupsys/backend: ipp, lpd, socket, usb, snmp, dnssd
