2017-05-24 Thread Tom Smith
Is this related in any way to bug 1521134?
1521134 is marked fixed in 3.17.4 so I will test and see.

Title:
  Printer shouldn't be paused after "hp" CUPS backend failed

Status in HPLIP:
  Confirmed
Status in hplip package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: cups

  When printing fails for some reason ("backend failed" message),
  printer is paused, and won't resume automatically, even after a
  reboot. This is silly because there's no notice about that in the
  print dialog nor in the print queue: you have to go to
  System->Administration->Printing, and be very clever to understand how
  to re-enable the printer.

  In most cases, the fact that something failed doesn't mean other
  documents won't print, and generally users will figure the error
  better by themselves than with a paused printer.

  This is in Lucid, cups 1.4.3-1ubuntu1.3 (not sure it's the same
  behavior in Maverick).

This is still a problem on Mint 17 and Ubuntu 14.04 with version 3.15.4
of hplip on the M225dn printer.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 692568] Re: Printer shouldn't be paused after hp CUPS backend failed

2015-03-19 Thread Tom Smith
We're still experiencing the same bug on multiple computers running 10.04 with 
HPLIP versions from 3.13.10 up to 3.14.10. Affected printers have been: 
M1536dnf, HP M125nw and the M1212nf.
The only workaround I've found so far that's susceptible for our end users who 
don't have admin rights is to run cupsenable $PRINTERNAME every few minutes 
via crontab. A real solution would be very useful.
(beh does not help us as we need the scanning capability of the hplip drivers).
I can provide more information if required.
