Some initialization problem between driver and printer. If I print certain types of documents the printer is fine. If I print a pdf, it's fine. If I print a second pdf, reams of paper spit out of the machine each with a few random characters on them. Resetting CUPS or power cycling the printer fixes the issue for one printout. Resetting CPUS ("sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart") fixes the issue for one printout. I use the "Brother MFC-8600 Foomatic/hl7x0 (recommended)" driver. Changing driver does not... at least not for sure... fix the problem. ---------------------- Or maybe it is an end job problem, as the printer often reports a state of "Idle - Sending data to printer." Hours after the last printout.
