As of today my old workhorse Canon BJ210 stopped printing with an error message "BJ210 Printer 'BJ210' may not be connected". It doesn't appear to be OS related as it happens in Ubuntu and Debian. Contradicting that assumption is the fact that when I try to delete the attempted print jobs from the lineup I get an error message "There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'client-error-not-possible'". This only happens in Ubuntu and not Debian. Deleting and reinstalling the printer eliminated this problem but didn't restore operation.
Another oddity is that when I reboot the error message about the printer not being connected appears. This despite the printer being turned off prior to the reboot. In case anyone wonders, the printer powers up, the physical connections are tight, and the requisite noises are heard when turning the power on or off. Hopefully the printer isn't toast as this isn't a good time for me to have to buy a new one. -- Bob Holtzman "If you think you're getting free lunch, check the price of the beer" --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
