Public bug reported: Binary package hint: cupsys
[Is cupsys really the right package for this problem?] After every print job, a blank page is ejected, be it a normal print job from any application or a test page from the xfce printing settings dialog. The same printer works fine by USB and on Windows (USB and network). This is very annoying because the blank pages cause paper jams if I try to reuse them. The printer, a HP Laserjet 1200 is plugged into the usb port of my adsl router that contains a print server (Siemens Gigaset SX541 WLAN dsl). On http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=369972 you can see how I managed to connect it at all: - I went to Applications, Settings, Printing - I chose New Printer - I gave my wirelessed printer a nice name - under "Select Connection" / "Devices", i chose "LPD/LPR Host or Printer" - I specified the hostname: "192.168.2.1" - I specified the printername: "LPT1" (...) - I chose my printer manufacturer (hp) and model (laserjet 1200) The paper size (A4) is correctly specified in the printer settings. I also tried a driver named "HP LaserJet 1200 Postscript (recommended)" from the general database where I could select "A4 (Small)", which produced the same result. If I connect the printer directly by USB on my computer, there are no blank pages. Now I try to give all the information requested on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems: * As the printer is connected on a print server, I skip the USB and parallel port sections * printingbuginfo: I'll add the file in a second post. * cups error log: dito ** Affects: cupsys (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- networked printer spits out extra blank page https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155826 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
