Package: foomatic-filters
Version: 3.0.2-20080211-3
Severity: important
*** Please type your report below this line ***
I have received the information, that the problem is already fixed in the
newest foomatic-rip available from http://www.openprinting.org/foomatic-rip
So this report is mainly an upgrade request...
Problem description follows:
When I cancel the print job via http://localhost:631 interface on my Debian
GNU/Linux system, I can see, that data are still transmitted to the printer.
It is not the problem with the internal printer cache, because even multiple
switching the printer on/off doesn't help.
When I investigated the processes running with the "#ps uxa" I could see the
following process still alive:
lp 6288 0.2 0.9 30544 19180 ? S 21:02 0:00 gs
-sstdout=%stderr -dBATCH -dPARANOIDSAFER -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=hl1250
-dEconoMode=0 -dSourceTray=0 -sOutputFile=%stdout -_
So it seems, that cups doesn't kill the processes run by the lpd to send the
data to the printer...
