[Bug 35638] Re: Hl-1050 is not detected properly
Results of trying it on live CD of earlier releases: 5.10 (Breezy) shows the printer as visible all the time and does not cycle between invisible & visible randomly on 'lpinfo -v' output. However, when I printed a test page, it was sent to the printer queue but not printed. State of the print job was "Pending: printer stopped". The printer was in its ready state on the printer itself. The printer properties says "Paused: unable to open USB device 'usb://Brother/HL-1440%20series': No such device."The printer does appear on the pull-down ports list in the properties window. When I select it there and go to the printer's window and activate "resume printing", the waiting document prints. 6.06 LTS (Dapper) starts with the printer visible in 'lpinfo -v' but it has the cycling problem -- randomly visible and invisible. The Add- Printer function doesn't detect the printer while it is invisible but does detect it when visible in lpinfo. However, even when detected, the add-printer doesn't actually add the printer after finishing the dialog. I tried 3 times. Remember, I have a Brother HL-1440 not HL-1050, but the problem seems to be shared by both of these printers on a USB port. -- Hl-1050 is not detected properly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/35638 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

My 'uname -a' output for the 3 installations I've tried it on (Ubuntu 7.04, Ubuntu 6.10, and OpenSUSE 10.2, respectively): Linux Northgate-U704 2.6.20-15-generic #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 07:36:31 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux Linux Northgate-U610 2.6.17-10-generic #2 SMP Fri Oct 13 18:45:35 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux Linux Northgate-oS102 2.6.18.2-34-default #1 SMP Mon Nov 27 11:46:27 UTC 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Here's more specific information. I tried each of the installations on the same hardware other than swapping out the primary hard disk on which Linux was installed as a clean installation, not an upgrade. It's a 2.2 GHz Celeron system with 512 MB of memory. Starting with the printer in sleep mode, I ran a watch command with default 2 sec intervals on the command 'lpinfo -v'. When I say that the printer was "visible", I mean that the appropriate line appears in the output of lpinfo showing "direct usb://Brother/HL-1440%20series". "Invisible" means the line was missing. On Ubuntu 7.04, the printer started visible and stayed visible for a long time (15 minutes) at which time I pressed the wake-up button on the printer. The printer went "ready" (its LED lit steadily) and was still visible. 4 seconds later it went invisible, 6 seconds later visible, 19 seconds later invisible, and so on. Seemingly at random intervals, ranging from a few seconds to 30 seconds, it changes from visible to invisible and back to visible and so on. This was also true on Ubuntu 6.10 and OpenSUSE 10.2, with one difference: On SUSE, the sleeping printer starts invisible, whereas on Ubuntu it starts visible. On all three systems, unplugging, waiting about 10 seconds and replugging the USB cable, or turning off the printer and back on again, causes the printer to become visible but the cycling resumes at random intervals. The cycling continues even when the printer goes back into sleep mode. If it would help as a regression test, I can replace the Ubuntu 6.10 or OpenSUSE 10.2 with a clean installation of earlier Linux releases and test again. I have quite a few earlier releases from SUSE, Ubuntu, Mandrake, and Red Hat, in my archives. -- Hl-1050 is not detected properly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/35638 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Can you post the output of "uname -a" for all distributions with which you have encountered the problem? Ubuntu Dapper, Edgy, Feisty, Gutsy, ... SUSE 10.2, ...?

[Bug 35638] Re: Hl-1050 is not detected properly
I have now tried this on a fresh installation of OpenSUSE 10.2 on the same machine and same printer. (I just pulled out the hard drive on which Ubuntu was installed and installed SUSE on a different drive. This is easy for me, since I have removable drive drawers.) The results of the lpinfo -v command are similar: erratic visibility of the usb Brother HL-1440 printer, regardless of whether the printer is "ready" or in sleep mode. Unplugging and replugging the USB cable brings back the visibility for a while. I also tried this on Ubuntu 6.10. Same problems. The lengthy delay while reading the printer database, which I mentioned in my prior comment on this bug, has been reported in other bugs. Note: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-cups-manager/+bug/44465 .

[Bug 35638] Re: Hl-1050 is not detected properly
I have a similar problem with my Brother HL-1440 connected by USB port, on Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty). This is a recent and up-to-date clean installation of the official release download, not an update from prior release. At first, the printer was detected and printed a test page ok. After some use, I started having erratic behavior of the printer. Documents would queue but not print even though I didn't change anything relating to the printer and the printer was still on and ready. For no apparent reason, the printer started working again under Feisty, for a while. Then failed to print again. The "lpinfo -v" output shows that the usb printer is detected sometimes (as "direct usb://Brother/HL-1440%20series") and after repeated lpinfo executions, the printer mysteriously disappears from the lpinfo output. When the printer is detected by lpinfo, doing a printer properties dialog shows the printer as a detected local printer on USB #1 and a test page prints fine. When the printer is not detected on lpinfo, doing the printer properties shows it as a Network Printer of type IPP Printer on Cups server (IPP), with URI= "usb://Brother/HL-1440 series" and the print- test-page sends data to the print queue but it hangs with Test Page job status showing as "printing:job-printing" and printer status saying that the printer was not ready (but it was). To force the printer to be detected again, I can unplug and replug the USB cable to it. The lpinfo -v shows it again, for a while, but it comes and goes and sometimes comes back. I thought the printer's sleep mode might be causing the driver to drop out, so to speak, but the Ready LED on the printer doesn't seem correlated with the times when the lpinfo can't see the printer and when it can.Once when I unpllugged and repllugged the USB cable, while a job was hung up in the print queue (printer icon in system tray), the stopped print job started and the test page actually was sent to the printer and it printed. When I do lpinfo -v, the system monitor shows 100% CPU load. "top" shows about 99% of the time is in cupsd. This goes on for quite a few seconds (maybe 10 to 20) then lpinfo produces its output. Also, when installing a printer, the search through the printer database takes a very long time, whcih has been reported in other bugs. Once I showed the printer properties dialog and it said "Status: Printing: No %%BoundingBox: comment in header!" and the connection tab showed that the printer had been detected as a network printer but this time with URI= parallel:/dev/lp0. Also, I have noticed that sometimes the lpinfo output includes direct parallel, direct canon, and direct epson entries, but they sometimes disappear from repeated executions of lpinfo. This erratic behavior almost defies description. The same hardware operates perfectly when I boot into Windows XP. -- Hl-1050 is not detected properly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/35638 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
