Title:
first print wrong others fine
Status in gutenprint package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Using a Canon ip4850, since few months problems with printing.
Usually text is printed multiple times, different colours, styles and
sizes on same paper.
After following the instructions "USB printer does not print or prints
garbage" most prints are fine, but still the first print is still
rubbish.
A temporally work around found, which works as follow:
-- First print empty page in for example Writer
-- Al other prints afterwards are fine
Any suggestions to solve the last hurdle?
Many thanks!!!
