[Bug 959676] Re: cups will not print to USB connected Samsung ML-4500 (with USB -> Parallel adapter)
I recently acquired a new PC, installed Ubuntu 12.04 and found myself with the same problem as reported by Daniel Llewellyn back in March. The only minor differences are that I have the 32-bit version of 12.04 and a slightly newer version of CUPS. Further details of my computer, printer and USB<->parallel cable are : Release 12.04 (precise) 32-bit Kernel Linux 3.2.0-33-generic-pae GNOME 3.4.2 CUPS version : 1.5.3-0ubuntu4 & system-config-printer 1.3.8 Printer Description : Samsung ML-4500 Device URI : usb://Samsung/ML-4500 Make and Model : Samsung ML-4500 Foomatic/gdi (recommended) $ groups drew adm lp cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare $ lsusb Bus 002 Device 004: ID 067b:2305 Prolific Technology, Inc.

Daniel did a very good job of describing the problem, so I will just repeat his words here : "Cups recognises the printer model and gnome correctly lists the printer in system-config-printer. Any attempt to print to the printer, however, results in the printer spinning up it's cooling fans and heating the fusing lamp while the "data" led on the front flashes for about 5minutes. In the cups admin screen the print job is listed as "Sending data to printer." The printer eventually stops whirring and shuts back down into standby with the Data led remaining static to indicate that the printer is idle. At no point does the printer actually begin, or finish, printing anything." Has anyone found out if the PL2305 chipset and Samsung ML-4500 have a hardware incompatibility ? Otherwise, is there some way I can assist in investigating what this printing problem is ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959676 Title: cups will not print to USB connected Samsung ML-4500 (with USB -> Parallel adapter) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/959676/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I believe I am in a similar situation to Tero: Originally on 12.04 but upgraded to 12.10 to try and see if my issue was resolved with newer CUPS so here is the relevant info for a failure on 12.10 Situation: 1) LaserJet 6P connected to system by a USB<->LPT cable (Belkin brand cable) lsusb for the appropriate device Bus 001 Device 003: ID 050d:0002 Belkin Components and printing using Gutenprint 2) before printing there is a /dev/usb/lp0 dev setup 2) First print after a reboot of system works (I have not had a case where this fails) After the first print 3) at this point I see in the syslog usblp0: removed 4) the /dev/usb/lp0 is NO longer present ... 5) If I try to print again the job hangs with Status "Processing" 6) Looking at the cups error log with the logging set to "debug" I see the following: [Job 1164] Got USB transaction timeout during write. (this message periodically repeats as it keeps trying to send the queued job) 7) at this point the usblp seems to still be present $ lsmod |egrep usblp usblp 18140 0 Breaking out of this bad state ... 1) if I try to simply power off the printer ... no help ... 2) if I disconnect the USB cable it does one of two things (both of which can lead to the job getting printed) a) sometimes unplugging and plugging it back in causes the job to immediately start printing b) sometimes during the unplug/replug the job gets put in a "held" state ... and then if I release the job it will start printing 3) If I reboot the system it will print the pending job upon reboot Generally it seems that 2) and 3) force the /dev/usb/lp0 to get re-insterted which allows printing of a job but it seems after printing a job the /dev/usb/lp0 gets lost Some other relevant info D [18/Nov/2012:14:07:33 -0800] [Job 1167] Gutenprint: CUPS option 25 usb-no-reattach = true D [18/Nov/2012:14:07:33 -0800] [Job 1167] Gutenprint: CUPS option 26 usb-unidir = true I tried to play with blacklist of the usblp but did not seem to impact ...

I think I managed to trick this thing to work. Steps 1) Try to print something, it'll fail 2) Detach and re-attach the USB end of the printer cable (do NOT reboot the printer) 3) Now printing magically works If I now reboot the printer, it'll stop working (at least I think it did so. It is almost 2 am and I'm not at my sharpest) and I need to re-do the cable re-attach. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959676 Title: cups will not print to USB connected Samsung ML-4500 (with USB -> Parallel adapter) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/959676/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 959676] Re: cups will not print to USB connected Samsung ML-4500 (with USB -> Parallel adapter)
I have very similar symptoms to ones described by Daniel. I'm on up-to- date 12.04, got Minolta PagePro 8L LPT printer also connected to USB via Prolific PL2305 USB<->LPT adapter. The combination was working just fine until I updated from previous LTS to this precise (12.04). Now if I try to print, job appears to queue, then disappears, printer light begins to flash (as if it was receiving/processing data) but nothing else happens. Light flashes seemingly forever and printer status is reported as "Idle - Sending data to printer." First thing I noticed when I started debugging this was "Filter ... not found." lines in cups error log. They disappeared after I removed and re-added the printer, but it had no effect on the problem itself. Following sections "USB printer", "CUPS error_log", and "Capturing print job data" on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems I get.

[Bug 959676] Re: cups will not print to USB connected Samsung ML-4500 (with USB -> Parallel adapter)
Daniel, it seems that your problem is different to the one of bug 987485. The main difference is that the problem of bug 987485 only occurs beginning with the second job after turning on the printer. The first job always prints well and so these users can use their printers turning off and turning on their printer for each job. The changes also improve the situation for that users, being able to print several jobs in a row. Your problem is different. Just in the beginning no job came out at all for you. Under Windows it can be even the same problem, meaning that there is a hardware incompatibility between the Prolific adaptor and the ML-4500, but as it can also be a problem of the Windows driver being hard-coded to the first parallel port this is not sure. The Linux driver is for sure not locked down to the first parallel port. The driver which turns the data into the format needed by the printer and the backend which sends the data to the printer are separate and independent. Can you please try the following workaround: Remove the blacklisting of the usblp kernel module: sudo mv /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-cups-usblp.conf ~ sudo modprobe usblp If you get errors here the blacklisting is perhaps already removed. Check it via: ls -l /dev/usb/lp* sudo usb_printerid /dev/usb/lp0 Clear the print queue: cancel -a Turn off and turn on your printer again, unplug and re-plug the USB cable. Create a new print queue running the following commands: lpadmin -p test -E -v parallel:/dev/usb/lp0 -m foomatic-db-compressed-ppds:0/ppd/foomatic-ppd/Samsung-ML-4500-gdi.ppd lpadmin -p test -o PageSize=A4 Try to print to this queue.

For each failed test attach the error_log and /var/log/syslog, thanks. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959676 Title: cups will not print to USB connected Samsung ML-4500 (with USB -> Parallel adapter) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/959676/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 959676] Re: cups will not print to USB connected Samsung ML-4500 (with USB -> Parallel adapter)
using 1.5.3-0ubuntu2~ppa3 both with and without the blacklist the printer behaves the same as before: data light flashes for 5 minutes (exactly 5?) and then returns to steady indicating it's default idle state. After removing the blacklist file and loading the usblp module the printer is not recognised as plugged-in with cups reporting "Idle - Waiting for printer to become available." However trying to print to it anyway changes the state to "Processing - Sending data to printer." and the data light flashes as described above. dmesg, after removing the blacklist, reports [ 3450.780442] usbcore: registered new interface driver usblp [ 3749.481242] usb 4-3: USB disconnect, device number 2 [ 3773.184180] usb 4-3: new full-speed USB device number 4 using ohci_hcd [ 3773.366767] usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 4 if 0 alt 1 proto 2 vid 0x067B pid 0x2305 [ 3967.017765] usblp0: removed the last line occurs as I try to print. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959676 Title: cups will not print to USB connected Samsung ML-4500 (with USB -> Parallel adapter) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/959676/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

My CUPS upload to my PPA (1.5.3-0ubuntu2~ppa2) is broken. In some hours the new version 1.5.3-0ubuntu2~ppa3 will be available. Please wait for this new version, update your system then, check whether you actually have 1.5.3-0ubuntu2~ppa3 and then do the tests of comment #23. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959676 Title: cups will not print to USB connected Samsung ML-4500 (with USB -> Parallel adapter) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/959676/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have uploaded a modified CUPS package to my PPA now. Please add my PPA to your system as described on https://launchpad.net/~till-kamppeter/+archive/ppa in the section "Adding this PPA to your system" and then install the new CUPS package, preferably by simply doing a full system update. The CUPS version must be 1.5.3-0ubuntu2~ppa2. Now turn off and turn on your printer and re-plug the USB (with the printer turned on). Try to print. does it work now? Independent whether printing works for you now or not, reactivate the usblp kernel module by running the following two commands in a terminal window: sudo mv /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-cups-usblp.conf ~ sudo modprobe usblp Turn off and turn on your printer again and re-plug the USB (with the printer turned on). Try to print again. does it also work now? If it works, you are done. If it worked in the first test and stopped in the second, return to the configuration of the first test by running the following commands in a terminal window: sudo mv ~/blacklist-cups-usblp.conf /etc/modprobe.d/ sudo rmmod usblp -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959676 Title: cups will not print to USB connected Samsung ML-4500 (with USB -> Parallel adapter) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/959676/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I had a similiar issue till i saw that I was trying to print in "pdf" instead of "postscript" format. I simply corrected that one faulty default in the printer's properties dialog and my printer was behaving well afterwards. ..mabe just an idea. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959676 Title: cups will not print to USB connected Samsung ML-4500 (with USB -> Parallel adapter) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/959676/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
