Package: cups Version: 1.3.8-1lenny2 Severity: normal The default driver included with Debian Lenny for the Brother HL-1430 fails to print, though the driver appears to install correctly.
Upon printing, the print job gets sent off to the gnome print queue and the particular job is described as 'processing'. The data light on the printer itself blinks for some time, but finally stops without printing anything. The job in the gnome print queue is then marked as completed. A temporary work-around (and a confirmation that the problem is the driver) is simply by installing the driver provided here: http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Brother-HL-1430 This has worked in previous versions of Debian, and appears to be a regression. **Apologies if this isn't the appropriate package to file against; I can't find the CUPS package that specifically installs the bundled driver repository.** -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_NZ.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages cups depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii cups-common 1.3.8-1lenny2 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.22 Debian configuration management sy ii ghostscript 8.62.dfsg.1-3.1 The GPL Ghostscript PostScript/PDF ii libavahi-compat-libdn 0.6.22-3 Avahi Apple Bonjour compatibility ii libc6 2.7-14 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcups2 1.3.8-1lenny2 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libcupsimage2 1.3.8-1lenny2 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.1-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgnutls26 2.4.1-1 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libkrb53 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-4 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.11-1 OpenLDAP libraries ii libpam0g 1.0.1-4 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpaper1 1.1.23+nmu1 library for handling paper charact ii libslp1 1.2.1-7.4 OpenSLP libraries ii lsb-base 3.2-20 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii perl-modules 5.10.0-16 Core Perl modules ii poppler-utils [xpdf-u 0.8.7-1 PDF utilitites (based on libpopple ii procps 1:3.2.7-8 /proc file system utilities ii ssl-cert 1.0.23 simple debconf wrapper for OpenSSL Versions of packages cups recommends: pn avahi-utils <none> (no description available) ii cups-client 1.3.8-1lenny2 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii foomatic-filters 3.0.2-20080211-3.2 OpenPrinting printer support - fil pn smbclient <none> (no description available) Versions of packages cups suggests: ii cups-bsd 1.3.8-1lenny2 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii cups-driver-gutenprint 5.0.2-4 printer drivers for CUPS pn cups-pdf <none> (no description available) ii foomatic-db 20080211-2+nmu1 OpenPrinting printer support - dat ii foomatic-db-engine 3.0.2-20080211-1 OpenPrinting printer support - pro ii hplip 2.8.6.b-1 HP Linux Printing and Imaging Syst pn xpdf-korean | xpdf-japa <none> (no description available) -- debconf information: cupsys/raw-print: true cupsys/backend: ipp, lpd, parallel, scsi, serial, socket, usb, snmp, dnssd -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
