Public bug reported: I have an HP DeskJet 5150 connected via USB to my desktop. I think I can print normally from my desktop, but I'm not sure, since I mostly use it as a server.
I connect to my printer via IPP on my laptop. When I print, it'll print the first inch or two of the document, then stop. I have to log in to my desktop and re-enable the printer (I do it from the CUPS website, localhost:631). Then, it prints normally. My printer is configured to automatically turn itself on when it receives a job, and back off after it's been idle for a while. The problem only seems to occur for jobs printed when the printer is off. If I manually turn the printer on before sending the job, if works fine. This problem only started to occur within the last several weeks. Before that, everything was fine. I can't remember, though, what updates came at that time. Other notes: - Both my desktop and my laptop are running Gutsy. - There is a forum thread which recounts other people's similiar experiences. Everyone who's posted so far is using an HP printer. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4262796 - Bug 139317 might be related to this one, but this isn't a duplicate, since the other one has already been fixed. And my problem didn't begin until long after the other one was fixed. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Keep needing to re-enable printer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/188752 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
