further "findings" Installed ubuntu 13.10, updated everything, added usb to parallel dot matrix printer with "text" driver and all performs the same, no difference, the terminal command "lp -d text -oraw test.txt" prints once every time after usb cable reconnection
then I connected my HP deskjet F2492 printer, it automaticalley appeared in printers, and it worked perfect, both print and scan. BUT, since then, no print at all to the usb to parallel dot matrix jobs stay forever in the "text" queue, even after cable reconnection. To get to the previous situation I had to delete the Deskjet printer, physically disconnect it, and reboot the computer Then everything can be reproduced, again, exactly the same behaviour -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1249627 Title: usb to parallel prints only once To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1249627/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
