Public bug reported: Binary package hint: cupsys
In ubuntu 7.04, lpd printing is no longer possible, and it isn't possible to add lpd printers. This has been the case since Saturday 10/3/07. Cups was updated, and my lpd printer would no longer print saying "paused pending specific". I know of at least two other users whohave the same problem. Since the occurence of the problem, foomatic gui gave an error of "cannot read printer database". Using gnome-cups- add to add a printer goes through all the steps to add the printer, yet when you click Apply, the window disappears very quickly, and the printer is not added. The printer I have is an Epson Stylus D88. I was trying to add the host name 192.168.123.254 with a queue name of lpUSB0. The printer was working fine with Ubuntu up to that point although there was another issue of a 5cm gap appearing at the top of pages but that is a separate issue. ** Affects: cupsys (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- lpd printing no longer possible - lpd printers can't be added https://launchpad.net/bugs/91747 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
